Catalina Village Apartamentos

They do not keep up with the property. Maintenance is is very slow. They have pest problems. Sketchy neighborhood. Front office very unreliable.

We rented a 2/2 for my UH college daughter and her roommate, their first time to live in an apartment. Leasing agent Tiffany was informative, friendly, knowledge and responsive and answered all of our questions with a smile.

Their apartment is HUGE (more than 1300 square feet!) and well maintained. My only wish is that the neighborhood was a little safer and that there was a Metro stop closer so the girls could catch the bus to campus. But there is a nice big HEB five minutes away and 288 is... blocks from the property, making it easy to get anywhere quickly. Lee mas

Staff is extremely unprofessional and rude. Will take months to get a lease signed.this property has NO AMENITIES. The only thing you get at this apt is SPACE. The floor plans are spacious and the area is up and coming. Other than that, expect cars to broken into, the security sucks, no guest parking and excessive towing. Please note that the staff has made their own “5 star reviews”.

They are not a true reflection of the residents that actually live here. I will not be renewing my lease due... to another rude encounter with the staff. Expect to get 10 different answers from the staff when signing your lease.

Overall, the space is not worth the headache you will encounter. Lee mas

I love this place, there's nowhere else in Houston that I can find with large spacious kitchens that also have in-unit washer and dryer for this price and square footage. Maintenance has taken care of any issue I've had within a couple of business days, they'll just sneak right in, fix whatever needs to be done and be out! Office staff is understanding and hasn't changed often, and everything is handled like a well-oiled machine. The buildings are fairly new, so no foundation issues or anything,... and hookups are quite modern. The location by Downtown and the Medical Center is convenient if you're a college student or a new MedCenter employee looking to rent.

My only issue was that the security has gotten lax in the past few years, going from very diligent foot patrol back in 2015 to SEAL security that tend to just sit in their car and watch as residents' cars are broken into. The front gate is fairly useless, as everyone in the neighborhood knows the code in, and the property towing company won't arrive for at least a couple of hours, which means if someone parks in your spot, you're out of luck for a few hours. There's also no visitors parking (except on the street which is unsafe). There are definitely nights where there's large amounts of drunk people wandering in from the nearby clubs, and they have damaged cars and picked fights with residents. Also, the prices listed here are definitely not what they're going for right now (a good bit more). Lee mas

They need to seriously treat their grass/landscape and if you drive through the complex during the day you will see brown grass all over the place which is an eyesore. Also, if you drive on the property at night you will find lights throughout the property that are out in the night hours which can help eliminate people from breaking into your car or apartment and reduce crime. Their maintenance staff should do weekly checks after hours during dawn hours to ensure lights are working properly. ...

The hallways and the exterior walls outside the complex need to be pressure washed or either paint the floors so that the floors don't look dirty and filthy, if they painted the color of the floor to a grey coloring this would reduce the dirty look of the flooring. If you are paying this amount of rent which they charge why cant they ensure the exterior of the property looks as good as the inside of your property. Its not worth what you pay for. Don't be fooled by moving here for the location because as soon as you come home each day you don't feel like you are glad to see the exterior of the complex on how they neglect it. Lee mas
