University Court

I was applying to few apartment complex in Davis since I wanted to move there. Somehow they changed the application to lease agreement. When I went there after few weeks to move in they asked me I have to pay them from the date of application not when I get the key. They also mentioned they are having this type of business policy in few other cases too. I didn't rent the place from them and won't recommend unless there is no other option since the apartment complex professionals seems to be involved with fraudulent business strategy.

Perfect location, nice and efficient staff, small gym and a swimming pool inside. Everything is great expect the price.

UPDATE: The staff has since changed since that last time I posted a review. They are all absolutely wonderful and go out of their way to help residents and plan fun events. Old review: University Court has a good location because it is close to campus, across the street from Trader Joe's, and has a bus stop in front of he property. They have a nice pool (which nobody uses), a spacious gym (weights, treadmill, various machines), and a large study lounge. The apartment has all wooden floors and a carpeted bedroom. The are no lighting fixtures in the living room and bedroom, so you have plug in your own lighting. The tile in the bathroom, is a cheap plastic that has been caulked into place. There are a lot of hidden fees when living at this apartment. There is a $30/month parking fee, $7 fee for the laundry card, $70 for sewage, water, and trash which is added on top of the high rent. The office staff are really unfriendly. When I first moved into last year, I was having problems with the resident portal and the office staff recommended some vague instructions, which I would try and would still not help solve my problem. I went to the office about 4 times before the manager finally stepped in and helped me out. The manager of the property is also called the "Business Team Leader," which says a lot about how they value their tenants. Since the beginning of quarantine, there has been a closure of all amenities, limited office hours, and long wait times for maintenance requests. Even though they have closed their amenities because they fear the spread of COVID-19, I have not seen additional sanitary measures and the female office assistant talked to me without a mask. In addition, the current residents have not been compensated in any way for the for the reduction of services. The office continues remind their tenants that they cannot break their lease for the next year, even though many students are returning home since classes are online.

excellent ,perfect ,very nice, many meaningful activities

I must say that I was very hesitant when I first moved here, but the place grew on me over the 2 years that I lived there. The apartments are a little old, but very well kept. I appreciated how fast maintance came when something needed to be repaired. For the most part people in the front office were nice. Honestly, yes, rent is expensive, but it is expected because of its location. It is literally right across the street from Trader Joes, campus, subway, Starbucks etc. I had a great two years living here and would highly recommended it.
