University Court Apartamentos

Avoid at all costs. This is a poorly run apartment complex. Staff and mgmt are completely uncooperative and only looking to get paid. They keep a good portion of security deposit even when apartment is cleaner then move in date.

Parents and students… BE WARNED! Stay away from UNIVERSITY COURT; 515 Sycamore LN in Davis CA. The entire complex is infested with rats and unethical management practices. The only good thing about University Court is the location (located next to Trader Joes and across the street from UC Davis). We moved my son into his apartment at University Court (UC) in SEP 2021 and were provided a lease agreement that guarantees liability/responsibility for the unpaid debts of the other lease... holder/roommate who fails to pay their half of the rent on time. It’s my fault for not reading the fine print… so please don’t make the same mistake I did. During the past three years, my son had three different roommates, who either left after transferring into another school, or dropped out due to poor grades. Each time we received aggressive and intimidating letters, emails and phone calls from University Court management telling us that we were responsible for the other roommate’s rent/liabilities regardless of our good standing for paying our half of the rent on time. When we tried to discuss or dispute the situation with UC management… the only thing they would say is, “it’s in the lease and if you don’t pay the total amount we will simply send your account to a collection agency, ruin your credit and evict your student from the apartment”. To add insult to injury… the entire apartment/complex is infested with HUGE RATS (we have the photos and the videos to prove it!). After repeated complaints to UC management… their response was to send a maintenance person to the apartment and set two rat traps (which did absolutely nothing at all). The rat infestation got so bad that my son had to move out two months early and find another room to rent so he could graduate on time. When his lease was finally up we returned to the vacant apartment… and were horrified to see how the rats had eaten the furniture, carpet, baseboards, and parts of the doors and walls. The apartment was filled with rat droppings and the smell of rodent urine. Instead of moving my son’s furniture and belongings out of the apartment, we were forced to throw everything away due to the damage and infestation issues. We were afraid of disease and the possibility of spreading the rat infestation into his new apartment.

This office is very poor at communication and asks for several pieces of information to process a lease constantly and tries to find ways to screw you over. Never live here is my personal recommendation. Out of 7, I would rate this apartment a 1!!!.

Ucourt is the worst apartment in Davis. The deposit here is 2k for each person, which is crazily high and they would charge you a lot of money from your deposit after you moving out, by the reason like painting the wall, replacing tubs, which is totally unreasonable. The room area is pretty small, while the rent fee is very high. Never choose here!!!! It is the worst apartment in Davis. It would waste your money and time!!!!

This is my first apartment and I was glad to find one so close to UC Davis. The apartment building is in fair shape with nothing spectacularly great nor terrible.

There is plenty of parking though the spaces are rather narrow. My microwave oven much smaller than I am used to and my normal plate doesn't even fit in it. Some of the cupboards in the kitchen and bathroom seem to have been installed illogically where doors don't open fully and space is unable to be used.

I had some relatively... minor issues with my apartment when I moved in but I have to hand it to the staff that they are on top of it and respond quickly. Work orders are handled in short order. I get ample notifications via email for everything from packages arriving for me to advanced notice about work being done around the place. The management seems to really care and work hard to keep the place going. Lee mas
