Campus Quarters at Corpus Christi, corpus-christi-tx

The absolute worst place in CC! My son lived here for 3 year while attending college at TAMUCC. The rooms and carpet are run-down and he had constant issues with the appliances. The day we moved in, the clothes dryer was full of water and it took them weeks to fix/replace. As you can see from the pics, they have a major black mold issue in this unit that went on for years. We would complain and they would send someone over with a gallon of paint to cover up. What they should have done was relocated my son and his roommate and tore the majority of the sheetrock out. These pics where taken at the end of July this year when we were there to move him out. The apartment had been vacant for a couple of months as both boys were home for summer vacation. When we drove down to move him out, this is what we were faced with. We were forced to find a hotel room as we couldn't stay in the apartment with the mold. Unfortunately, most rooms in CC were filled as this was the last few weeks of summer for vacationers. We ended up staying in a dive hotel (at least it wasn't infested with black mold) for $300/night. There was a $120 balance on my son's account and the staff was relentless in getting payment even though I explained maybe they should consider writing this off since I spent $600 on a hotel room when we should have been staying in the apartment. There was no sympathy as we have been told they will send to collections. ALL parents need to read through the many negative reviews before signing a contract for their kids to stay in this DUMP! If zero stars was a choice, that's what they would get.

Living here is mid but the give aways are lowk FIREEEE!!! they also do pretty cool stuff for residents and maintenance is great but management is questionable. took wayyyy too long to get my gift card.

Didn't think a new management could be this terrible! It has also only been a month of living here. Firstly, my lease had the first payment on a specific day (not listing for privacy). As we get closer to that day, I try to logon to the portal and it isn't functioning. Come to find out everyone except the new residents got an email about it, so we were just left to figure it out. Okay, no biggie (yes biggie), I'll just call them... except that went NOWHERE. I am basically told "I don't know why you didn't get an email, your rent is due July 15th, I also don't know how you pay it" I then ask to be sent to someone who can help and am told there is nobody, quick google search sent me to the leasing office, which they didn't pickup at all... eek. Continue with no info, i'm able to pay on move in day, cool beans (not really). Lots of issues, which to this day some were not resolved with maintenance! In fact, one was that in the double paned window, the exterior one was broken... yikes! There's also mold everywhere which is awful for allergies. They make you pay for package lockers that they don't use, in fact everytime I have gotten a package i've gotten an email to pick it up at the front. Which would be okay if the front was open 24/7, but of course it isn't. What would they do if a package was time sensitive?! The gate system they have is also idiotic. The gate that appears to be a main gate (and actually used to be a main gate, and can be controlled) is now not openable through the app. Instead you must go out of your way to get in, so stupid! Do NOT live here, the proximity to campus is NOT worth it.

The reason for my post was to let parents and potential residents know what it was like to live in Campus Quarters. The staff and maintenance team was nice and do their best. Madison went above and beyond to always say hi to me - a very lovely thing to do! But I wasn't impressed with the living spaces. The parking lot was always trashed. More than once, I had to call about the dishwasher since there was liquid draining into it. I had to call more than once about the dryer - it takes about two hours to dry one load of laundry. The walk-in gate never closes it's always open (just fyi). My door handle was rusty and wasn't positioned correctly? I wrote that when I first moved in and yet saw no one address the issue. The amenities are beautiful, the pool and gym are wonderful but hopefully the unit you move into is better suited for your needs. 11/1/2023 Please don't live here without knowing all the cleaning fees involved. I was charged $283 for a "cleaning" fee. All they did was clean and shampoo my CLEAN carpet, shampoo and clean the common area.

I never write reviews, but I felt like I had to for this apartment complex. I attended TAMU-CC, so I know this is one of the closest non-student housing options. Unfortunately, the convenience is not worth it. I lived here for two years in two different apartments. Both units were in poor condition when I moved in, with dirty rooms, damaged paint, and worn carpets. Despite documenting the condition, I was charged at least $600 each time I moved out for "paint and carpet damage." It didn't seem to matter that these issues existed before I ever lived there. Once they know you're moving out, it feels like they stop caring about you as a person. Another disappointment was the removal of the computer and printing room. One of the reasons I signed my lease was because they advertised free computer and printing access. They later converted that space into a package room, and the new process required sending documents to the front office for staff to print. Several times, I received backhanded comments about how much I was printing, to the point that I started bringing my own paper because I felt so uncomfortable. I also understand that management is allowed to enter apartments for certain reasons, but staff would frequently come in to leave lease renewal merchandise or flyers, often slamming doors and placing papers on every bedroom door. I understand they want residents to renew their leases, but there should be a more respectful way to handle it. The one bright spot was the maintenance team. Every maintenance worker I interacted with was kind, professional, and quick to help whenever I submitted a request. They were by far the best part of living here. If you've read this far, just know that I don't usually leave negative reviews. I've never felt strongly enough to write one before, but my experience here convinced me to do so. I remember my parents researching apartments when I was preparing for college, so if you're a parent trying to help your student find a place to live, I genuinely recommend looking elsewhere.
