I have lived at Century West Apartments for about a year and have enjoyed it. The building manager is professional and responsive, my maintenance requests are handled in a reasonable amount of time, and I rarely hear noise from other units in the building. The building is close to bus lines and the freeway, as well as shops and restaurants. Overall, living at Century West has been a positive experience. I would recommend it.
