A lot of these 5 star reviews seem to be from people who haven't actually lived here. I moved in Fall 2025 and left after a year. I do not recommend living here to anyone. I stayed in a 2x2 elite "renovated" unit on the 4th floor. Immediately upon entering my room on move in day, I was greeted by a roach and stiff pair of boxers underneath the bed. The whole unit was filthy, there were stains everywhere and it's clear that nobody had ever bothered to clean the place at all. The roaches never went away, even after they added us to the pest control list. I'm sure it didn't help that there's gaps everywhere in the unit. The space between the bottom of the dishwasher and the floor is completely empty, giving the roaches a very deep space to crawl into. There were also gnats that were impossible to get rid of. Every single appliance aside from the microwave broke at least once during my time there. Within 3 days of moving in the fridge broke down, and by the time maintenance came to replace it 2 days later, half the food had to be thrown away. The washer broke, then it was replaced, then it broke again, twice, since they replaced it with another previously-broken washer. 2 of the 4 stoves we had would smoke horribly as soon as you turned them on and had seemingly never maintained in any way. The laundry room door kept falling off of it's hinges, maintenance came to "fix" it only for it to fall off again the same afternoon. Now, between me and my roommate we are being charged $260 in damages for it. The fire alarm went off countless times in the middle of the night and would sometimes last for up to 20 minutes. This was a constant issue that never ended. The whole building had horrible ventilation, the floor would frequently be overcome with strange smells that lingered for weeks. The common areas were also dirty and poorly maintained, if at all. Somehow the wifi didn't reach the living room but was fine in the bedrooms. While it doesn't come close to outweighing the bad, there were a few good things that I enjoyed. The shelves were nice (if you get them), the gym was extremely well equipped with a nice view, and the staff was friendly and were quick to sort mail. Overall, the place is filthy, poorly maintained, and they like to charge as much as they can for anything and everything. The apartment is very small and suffers from a lack of sunlight and drawers (none). Everything will break and the fire alarms will not let you sleep. At least the bugs seem to be enjoying their stay.

I had a great experience with the maintenance team. They respond to work orders very quickly, and Desmon in particular was outstanding. He replaced my ceiling fan quickly and efficiently, and he also fixed my dryer without any issues. He was professional, friendly, and got everything taken care of fast. I really appreciate the prompt service

Honest review from a short-term resident (April–July 2026) I stayed in an Elite 2BR/2BA Classic B apartment. Overall, 12 North offers a great location and convenience, but it comes with a few highly disruptive flaws that heavily impacted my daily life and sleep quality. The Good: * Location: Excellent. Just a few minutes' walk to the TAMU campus. * Friendly Staff: The staff members are very nice, attentive, and always willing to help whenever you talk to them. * Amenities: The free coffee machine is a major highlight and a huge plus for residents, absolutely loved it! The Amazon locker is also highly convenient, and the study rooms are great. The gym is really good and rarely crowded; if you go early or even during peak hours, it is usually very empty. * Contract Flexibility: They allowed me to start my lease in April without forcing a sublease, which is rare in College Station. (Note: Rates were $825 base rent + $15 insurance fee + $54 guarantor waiver fee since I didn’t have US credit). * Pest Control: Zero issues with bugs/pests; just standard, avoidable fruit flies if trash is left out (Living on the 2nd floor). The Bad: * Constant, Unbearable External Noise & Poor Blinds (Boyett St. Side): Living on the 2nd floor facing Boyett St. (near the pool) was infuriating. There is a maddening, literal 100% constant wall of noise from 5 AM to 2 AM. On weekdays, construction right next door blasts heavy machinery noise from 5 AM to 6 PM. Then, every single night without fail, nearby bars blast loud music and bass from 10 PM to 2 AM. On top of that, the bedroom blinds are low quality and don't block the night lights properly. The noise and light were so bad that I had to start using noise-canceling earplugs and a sleep mask just to get some rest—something I have never had to do in my entire life. Avoid this side of the building at all costs. * Chronic & Nightmare Fire Alarm Issues: This is a severe, recurring problem. In just 4 months, the alarm went off falsely 5 or 6 times, almost always in the dead of night between 8 PM and 2 AM. The sound is absolutely deafening and distressing, forcing everyone to evacuate in the middle of the night. * Poor Ventilation & No Natural Light in Common Areas: The layout has a major design flaw: the only windows in the entire unit are the ones in the individual bedrooms. The living room and kitchen area are completely dark without artificial lights, and there is zero natural air circulation. Because of this, the apartment gets stuffy very quickly. The kitchen exhaust hood is very weak, so you are forced to constantly run the ceiling fan every time you cook just to clear the air (which honestly might be why the building's fire alarms trigger so often). * Move-in Disorganization: Despite confirming my arrival days in advance, staff seemed completely surprised by my move-in. They did everything in a rush, forgot to give me basic info like the Wi-Fi password, and didn't even notify my roommate that I was moving in until I arrived in the lobby. * Lease Terms: Like most of CS, all leases strictly end on July 31st. Since I needed to stay until September, I couldn't extend it without renewing for a full year and finding someone to take over my lease. A solid choice for TAMU students solely due to location and amenities, especially if you need an atypical lease start date. However, demand a room away from Boyett St. if you value your sleep.

The guest parking situation is ridiculous. Their guest parking system doesn’t work, so guests have to physically go to the office to get a parking pass. When I went, they were completely out, and I was told I would either have to risk getting towed or pay $20+ to park somewhere else. I called the office later to see if they had received any more passes, and they told me they had 2 available. I immediately went downstairs, which took maybe a minute, and they told me they were already out. So I ended up having to park somewhere else and pay for it. The office staff was also extremely rude and unhelpful throughout the whole situation. My sister’s roommate also had her car towed because she wasn’t registered with the towing company. She pays $75/month for parking and still had to pay $360 to get her car back. When u register with the apartment they still require you to register with the towing company. They basically have a little system where they purposely mislead people and get their cars towed, it’s like a business they built on it. On top of the parking issues, the apartments are very very very small for the price, the hallways and parking areas smell bad, the trash is constantly overflowing, and you can hear the clubs all night. For how much you pay to live here, it’s simply not worth it.
