I lived at Cayman for about 1 year, my overall experience was positive. I was moving out of BCS; thus, I didn't renew my lease. The complex really is a no frills place (aka no pool, no gym, and no club house) primarily focused on providing affordable apartments with consistent maintenance. The buildings are actually older, but the property manager is consistently updating each apartment. When I first moved here, there was an option to have a washer and dryer. My apartment originally didn't come with one, but Gary (property owner/manager) placed a new set in my apartment prior to me moving in. When my dishwasher malfunctioned, he quickly evaluated it and had a new one placed in less than a week. Somethings to be aware of is that this is situated adjacent to a neighborhood and nearby the rail road tracks. The other thing is that this complex is not gated. I personally never had an issue with safety, but things can always happen whether in a gated or non-gated community. In addition, it is a no pets apartment complex. It may not be the fanciest of apartments. However, it's spacious and maintained well and all at an incredibly affordable price. Also, you have private parking right in front of your building. The selling point is the great ownership, which is definitely not always common in BCS. As a side note, Gary hosts monthly events, ranging from BBQs to burgers. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to make it, but I heard they were really fun. Also, on your birthday, you receive a $5 gift card to subway.

It is…read morewonderful if ya'll don't have much but now as we are becoming more financially stable, and getting more furniture, we now want a bigger location. They have free cable and free Wi Fi which is great so you only pay for the Tivo and NFL extras, which for us is only like $50 since we pay to rent the wifi, the Tivo box and the extra channel for NFL. The closet is amazing and huge! It's a walk in with shelves inside so you can really store alot of shoes and towels inside. The bathroom is kinda small and the counter is only big enough for 1 hair appliance (talking to women here) so makes it a bit longer to do hair styles and since only 1 restroom then it can become a hassel. The bedroom holds our full size bed and the gigantic bed frame that includes drawers so we don't need an extra drawer. However, the room is big enough to hold a queen size bed with an extra drawer. It's huge! Never had a roach problem which was a huge factor and pest control is only a $1. You have to call for the pest control guy to come but they schedule for him to come in a timely manner (within the 1st week not like a month wait). Quiet place absolutely perfect for students to study. There's families here too but they are separate from the students so everyone is living peacefully. The pool is always nice and clean and so are the grounds. They always maintain the land. I definitely recommend living here it's great especially if you're a student and Elephant bus route stops right in front here!

Lived here for two years and really enjoyed it for the most part. Ended up moving out of CSTAT, but…read moreprobably would have renewed my lease if I had stayed in town. The location is in a quieter part of town, which is great if you want to get away from the congested and busy heart of CS. I always felt extremely safe in the area and often times went out to do my grocery shopping at 12 - 1AM. It's off of University, within 5 min. driving distance to Half Price Books, Ulta, Michaels, Starbucks, Kroger, Target, and many restaurants. Pros of this property: - Quiet and safe location - Friendly staff - Business center is accessible 24/7, which is nice for students/working professionals who need to access the printer but aren't always able to go during business hours - Nice pool - Quiet neighbors - Dog-friendly - Quick service from maintenance team - Valet trash at no additional fee - Nice storage closet on the balconies Cons of this property: - You have to supply your own paper to use the printers - Printers were often out of ink/toner - Our unit had some cracks along the doors which led to those annoying flying ants entering in our apt quite frequently in the springtime. I mentioned a few times in a maintenance request that the doors needed weather stripping/sealing, which they said they would do, but honestly it didn't seem like they did.

When I visited the office about a year ago to inquire about my position on the waiting list, the Managers Ms. Natasha and Ms. Rita looked up my name and informed me that I was nearing the top. They provided me with a clear outline of the necessary steps to take moving forward, ensuring we were prepared when a two-bedroom unit became available. I frequently visited the office to update my information and request status updates, and the Managers remained helpful and accommodating (even though I know I drove them crazy lol). After approximately 14 months, my persistence and their efforts resulted in my approval. Since moving in, I've encountered nothing but kindness from the residents and staff, who have gone above and beyond to assist me and my son. I love the cleanliness and safety of the premises, it's been a long time coming, but my son and I have never been happier. Ms. Natasha and Ms. Rita are the managers that helped me through this entire process and I would like to to give a shout out to there dedication to making this community FAMILY The maintenance men have also been so helpful anytime I need anything at all they never hesitate to lend a helping hand. I have found my forever home

There's several patches of grass all around the building. There are also free dog bags and several trash cans so you can pick up after your dog. The price is awesome compared to similar complexes.

Our college daughter lived here 2+ years, and it did nothing but worsen the entire time. She and…read moreher roommates were obviously too distracted trying to make it through college to deal with each problem, which is clearly what they're relying on to make money while keeping the bar so low. My only recommendation if you're shopping for a place to put your college student, if you think you're narrowed down to moving in here, you need to keep right on searching, because you will regret being baited in. Guaranteed. They are clearly only able to survive by virtue moving is too much trouble for college students and options seeming too low. This place is really a glorified slumlord property. Like everything in the business world, it's always down to management, and this place SYSTEMATICALLY walls off tenants from a means to get problems dealt with. Whichever means you attempt to get a problem dealt with, email, phone, or literally in person in the office, you WILL be funneled into their "system" which is basically waiting weeks on end checking your email, while they run out the clock. The actual living conditions are obnoxiously poorly managed. Depending on how soon trash day is, the halls will have stacks of trash waiting to be picked up, which is the sorriest excuse for a system. Regularly, the trash will be puddling and stinking and drawing flying insects which of course will migrate into the living units. They obviously don't regard this as a failure needing redone at all. Basic repairs, addressing failing appliances, electrical problems (which some were straight-up fire hazards they were in NO hurry to confront), were each and every time a solid pain in the neck to deal with. The reason I'm back to even leave this review is despite having moved out months ago (thank jeebuz), we're STILL disputing them trying to bleed more money out of us to replace a refrigerator that was working fine and other petty expenses. Clearly, trying to grab a bit more money as people head out the door is baked into the system here. And of course, NATURALLY, they don't practice/are unavailable for formal walk-throughs to prevent such tactics; they rely on hitting people long after they're back home states away and less capable to formally dispute them. All I can recommend is finding whatever else accommodations you can possibly get, whatever you think is a worse option, trust me, it's not, take it. And for whatever reason you find yourself being corralled into moving in here, instruct your college child to gather evidence of everything, moving in and out, and DEMAND a walk-through to be scheduled. Maybe even invest in a civil attorney, in advance. You will regret it not preparing, because this is obviously how this place makes ends meet. It's not a bug. It's a feature. I can't stress this enough. One college parent to another.

Both apartments were infested with roaches. The gates were broken for half the year, this caused safety to be low, there was parties in the pool area nightly, this was not residents that lived there.

There has been multiple shooting and gun instances, I even arrived back to my apartment to an officer laying in front of my door with an AR out. Overall if safety is a must please just look somewhere else.

Another thing is you must pay for the WiFi they provide and it's honestly terrible service. We were also told that we would have a storage space on the patio, which we do not have. Other than that I'd say it's a nice place to live. Maintenance is always nice and attentive when needed and we've never had any problems with bug infestations /roaches here.

This is one of the best apartment experiences in my life. It is a great value for the price.- which is low. The manager of the place is not some inexperience kid with a suit like some other apartment places. Rather, it is Jana an experienced woman who knows her stuff, gets things done, and takes care of her residents. She told me when I moved in that "we treat residents better after they sign the lease - not just to try to get them the lease." And they delivered on that statement. This is not a high end white collar apartment complex. There are a lot of international students and regular folk. This is good because this makes the price very fair. The management is very fair and flexible. I asked for a 9 month lease, but when I found a home 7.5 months into the lease, they let me move out without paying for that last month- because they worked with me and found another tenant to take the apartment.

The staff doesn't know what's going on half the time. I was called a liar by one of the staff members when I pointed out something in my lease that they were required to do. When I pointed it out in the lease, she still called me a liar. I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone. It looks like a lot of the residents agree with me. They are so desperate for residents that they are having to lower their rent in all of their models.
