Montara Park Apartments

Wish I could give ZERO STARS! DO NOT RENT FROM CAMPUS LODGE! We have had the absolute worst experience with them! We are out of state so our daughter had to move in by herself the Saturday before classes start. When she arrived to move in, her apartment was not ready for move in. It had NOT BEEN CLEANED and 4 girls were moving in and starting classes the next day. On top of the entire apartment being disgusting their oven did not work and the washer and dryer did not work. It took weeks to... get anything fixed so they could not wash and dry clothes or cook for weeks. Furniture, cabinets and blinds broken. The carpet was covered in stains. We had to hire a cleaner just so the girls could move in and they are refusing the reimburse us for it. My daughter's car has been broken into 3 times. They had a homeless man hanging out in their stairwell. They had to call the cops to have him removed. He had bolt cutters and drugs in his backpack. They have rodents living INSIDE the apartment. Reported it a week ago and no one has gone to fix the situation. They have seen pest control on the property twice since but no one has handled it. They have caught two rats in the last two days INSIDE one of the girl's rooms/closet. If you call the front office at 3:00pm during business hours the manager has already left for the day and the only way to contact anyone who should be able to do anything is email and of course they are not quick to respond. She is not the only one with these experiences. Unacceptable and unsafe living conditions! Terrible Management! Read More

Roaches everywhere. Apartment we were told we were getting was not clean and also the wrong floorplan. Do not sign here. Stay away.

I like the place and the facilities are good. The staff is supportive. However, the emails are often not replied to which is sometimes a bit irritating. Hence 1 star less. Overall it is a good property and I would definitely recommend it to my friends who come here.

DO NOT RENT HERE!!!!!!!

I’m currently locked out of my apartment and they won’t send anyone to unlock it for me because it is after hours. They have emergency maintenance workers that are up 24hrs incase they are needed but their policy doesn’t include being locked out even thought every single one of them have a key. People break into cars and steal anything you leave in there often. One of my neighbors got a tire slashed a couple weeks ago. This place does not make you feel safe and will not... help you when you are in need. I will not be resigning here and no one should sign to live here. The fridge in my apartment has been leaking since I moved in and they have came to “fix” it 3 times but nothing has changed. This place is a scum hole and the neighborhood surrounding it is even worse. DO. NOT. RENT. HERE. It will be a waste of your money if you do. Read More

For the price it is ok. It is in a part of town that isn't the best and you will have to lock your doors/ car doors. Me and my friends have had things taken from our vehicle and there is no security cameras so you won't be able to anything about it really. There is a high rate of turnover rate for the staff and there has been new people here for the past 3 years that I've lived here. The appliances, furniture, and things in the apartment are cheap. So with that being said expect a little higher... utility bill but if you have curtains it can help on your heating and air costs. They have a new maintenance crew but in the past when I would make a complaint things would never really get fixed when broken. My drier would take 3-5 loads to dry my clothes and I complained about every month for a year period when I finally convinced them to replace my drier for a new one. What they would do is send maintenance to fix it but it would never get fixed. Also, one summer my AC went out and for 5 or 6 days straight I would make a maintenance order with them and they would send a maintenance man to flush the AC but he did it incorrectly and it would stop working after a few hours. It eventually got fixed when their main maintenance man returned but this was still unacceptable. Additionally, they charged us 144 in total for utility overage for the month ( $36 between the 4 of us), but I complained and got it adjusted to $28 between the four us which I still didn't find completely fair but that is how they are. I would say the positive highlights on campus lodge would be they offer a decent amount of amenities with free printing, tanning, a pool, a hot tub, a 24/7 gym, and the property as a whole is rather clean. Also, it is nearby to campus, and you can ride the bus to campus and if you decide to walk it is a 30 minute walk. Read More
