Midtown Townhomes, college-station-tx

I lived here for all of my 2+ years in BCS. The apartments are very clean, in a fairly safe neighborhood surrounded by student/grad housing. Nearly zero bug encounters, very modest rent increase year-to-year. The location is in walking distance of several nice parks, HEB, Target, or even A&M if you’re feeling a bit ambitious. The grounds are well-kept and full of cute birds. Byron and the rest of the PM team are extremely chill and accommodating. The only real negative is poor sunlight exposure on the first floor. Overall a great place to live.

I originally leased with this complex last year because of the low pricing, but unless you’re renting out the whole unit don’t bother here. I had two random roommates and one of them was fine and moved out early and the other roommate was extremely disgusting and smoked weed in the unit. When management was made aware of the problem they didn’t do anything. Moldy dishes would sit in the sink for a month at end with no help from the office. The complex is also older and management will constantly knock on your door. Everyone besides my one roommate (who was causing the issues) had to move out early because of the unsafe environment. Mold growing, smoking weed, moved her 35 year old boyfriend into the unit. Despite that we all had to pay the remainder of the lease and the roommate wasn’t evicted. Getting my deposit back was a battle with the leasing office and I only got it after I sent out a letter of demand and received my deposit back 2 months after my lease was up. DO NOT recommend this complex. Utilities also are not through the complex and one person has to go through the city to set up an account.

This is an older complex and, as such, the rents tend to be to the lower side. There are very few amenities and that is also reflected in the price. It is in a great location, due to proximity to the college and many stores and restaurants. They definitely take advantage of the fact that many of their renters are college students and probably have little to no experience with living on their own. My daughter was often talked down to when interacting with the office, and was basically treated like a child. We had to rent here on very short notice due to a late notice of acceptance to the college and no dorm rooms being available. They offered the first month rent for free but that was basically a scam. My daughter moved in at the middle of August and was given 2 weeks free and had to pay a full month starting in September. If you can avoid the place, you would be wise to do so. The rent is a great price, but many of their practices are unprofessional. Also, do not plan to receive any of your deposit back, as you will not. Multiple "cleaning" fees will be touted, regardless of the state it may have been in when you move in.

I've lived here for a few years. This apartment complex is pretty optimal for the price, and Byron is one of the best property managers around in my experience, as he's friendly and relatable, professional, organized, and quick with repairs and maintenance. Some of the pros of living here: It comes with a washer and dryer, is close to HEB and to two bus routes (26 and 27), has plenty of parking, and has a large living room for hosting events. Campus is also well within biking distance. Some cons: no gym, pool, or community center, but there are plenty of parks nearby; Anderson Park and Bee Creek Park are within walking distance.

I've been living at Midtown for a few years and it's been a great experience. I like lists so here are the highlights: - Responsive and Friendly Staff: The management team is great. They promptly address any concerns or maintenance requests, and they always wave and say hi. - Spacious Apartments with Natural Light: The apartments are large with plenty of space, even in the smallest bedroom. I'm in an end unit and have tons of natural light. - Utility Bills: One pleasant surprise has been the utility bills. The insulation is excellent, which means the electric bill has been lower than expected (the same as I was paying for my previous 2 bedroom). Water and internet is included (you can upgrade the internet and pay the difference). - Great Location: Walking distance to HEB, Target, Chase Bank, and a few restaurants. On the TAMU bus route and easy to bike to campus as well. - Noise from Holleman: While the location is fantastic, the noise from Holleman can be a bit bothersome at times. If you’re sensitive to street noise, consider requesting an apartment in the back. If you’re looking for a well-managed complex with spacious apartments and a convenient location, this place is great. Just be prepared for occasional street noise.
