Oct 2017: It's a pretty nice place to stay! Their prices are not the lowest but they'll work with you! They have different incentives that help you save money when signing at the right time! Review from Google Sep 2017: This is one of the worst apartment complexes in Statesboro. They offer incentives to their residents for posting good reviews. The aprtments are very nasty at move in and the management is very rude and defensive when you bring up issues with them over the phone. The main issue is the crime rate in this neighborhood. There are many armed robberies here due to the lack of security and only two security cameras in the entire complex. There has been no effort by the company to make this a safer place to live.If you care about your child's safety, then please sign somewhere else! Review from Google Jul 2017: The manager is wonderful and will resolve any issue you may have. The corporate office has finally started with some significant improvements to the property to make it look a lot fresher and make the complex more attractive when compared to newer properties in Statesboro. The only real minus is the type of people who are starting to lease here. They don't seem like students or young, working people. One of my neighbors was letting at least one shady person live in their unit, and he went to jail for physically abusing the resident. My other neighbor screams at her children constantly and has two toddlers and another adult living in her 500 square feet unit. Cambridge wasn't like this a couple of years ago. Maintenance can be a little slow, but they're good about getting things done. Review from Google Jun 2017: Cambridge at Southern Apartments are great apartments. They are well kept up, they have good management, they fix maintenance quickly, they are close to GSU campus, plenty of parking spaces and the apartments are quiet. I would definitely recommend this apartment!
Review from 6/8/17 on Google May 2017: Cambridge at Southern is one of the best accommodation for studentS in Statesboro. I'll tell you why: As an international student, I was worried about so many things ( the fear of living in a strange land (security issues), transportation to school, and of course, utility bills). They have you covered. There is a bus stop right in front of this accommodation where the bus will take you to school for FREE, the bills are inclusive and they have great deals. They are very lovely ( I mean their staff....lulu is the manager at the palms and she is a sweet lady always willing to help). If you have kids like me, they've got you covered as well. my daughter goes to their office and they show her so much love. If you are an international student, trust me this is your best bet! very cheap and affordable and CLEAN too! Apr 2017: I'm getting ready to move out of the dorms and GA Southern and the first tour I went on was great. I explained that I could only sign a May to may lease, and everyone told me that I would need to wait to sign on it, but it was an option and I could sign to move in with friends when their leases started in August. However, when we toured as a group again the lady who gave us the tour blatantly continued to tell me that I can't sign a May to may contract, they will literally only let me sign an August to July contract and nothing else.
Review from 4/19/17 on Google Mar 2017: Love living here at Cambridge Palms, awesome staff, the pool is not usually overcrowded, which is nice. The events they hold are great and there's always some type of free food in the clubhouse!
Review from 3/7/17 on Google Oct 2016: Rented a 2 bedroom apt in Palms. You won't get the same level of quality that you would at places like the Hampton's or Monarch but you also won't get an outrageous price like you would there either.
Overall probably the best bang for the buck apartment. Staff are awesome and it's very close to Campus (I can get from my apartment to COBA or the IT building in a little over 5 minutes on my skateboard).
Some people say that it's in a bad area but honestly looking at Eagle Alerts, the same number of crimes occur in the "nice" apartments that occur here.
Review from 10/14/16 on Google Oct 2016: Homes are disgusting and staff is unattentive. If they spent more time paying attention to the concerns of the residents instead of sleeping with them like that one girl in the office J something they would be a little better.
Review from 10/12/16 on Google Oct 2016: KIDS: DO NOT SIGN ***ANYTHING*** WITH THESE PEOPLE until you AND your parents are 100% certain that you are going to live here. Only sign when your guarantor is present and ready to sign too. These people are snakes who lie and sweet talk 18 year olds who don't know what they're getting themselves into. I know for a fact this has happened frequently and repeatedly with them. Be careful and don't get trapped into a contract.
Review from 10/5/16 on Google Apr 2016: Pros:
- Bus stop
- Free food events every week
- Maintenance requests are completed relitively quickly
- Friendly Staff
- Allows pets
Cons:
- Bugs: I did seek help so as time has gone by it has become less of a problem but the first few months I lived here seeing cockroaches was a daily occurrence. Honestly this was my least favorite part of living here.
- Uncleaned apartments: It was pretty obvious when we first moved in that our apartment had not been cleaned beforehand, The carpets and balcony were pretty gross.
Review from 4/29/16 on Google Mar 2016: Below review is absolutely correct! The same happen to my son...Made him believe thats what he needed...Foolishly he signed the documents with the assurance from the leeches that he will not be held liable.. paid 3 months rent and never lived in the complex not one day! The Ill mannered staff misrepresented, in correctly interpreted, mislead and apparently continued to perform under handed behavior in order to rent or keep apartments rented..Omg! these are college students for Christ sake who are trying to begin life, move into adulthood instead they begin in housing debt.
Review from 3/5/16 on Google Nov 2015: I'm currently a Cambridge at Southern resident and I love living here! The staff is very friendly and helpful. The experiences I have had with maintenance have been very nice. My biggest complaint is the area and the frequency of crime. It's not a huge problem, but it's worth noting, and the main reason for a lost star in this review.
Review from 11/20/15 on Google Nov 2015: So excited to live here! Absolutely cannot wait until move in day in August! I've really enjoyed all the help Cambridge has provided to make this process successful.
Review from 11/6/15 on Google Jul 2015: Loved it at first! Unfortunately, Statesboro has grown and the crime and stealing have got out of hand here. Now it is a scary place. Expect at least one eagle alert a week. Robberies are frequent, and anybody is allowed to used the pool. So, if you want a free pool come here, everyone is allowed to use it I guess. I am really scared about the direction Cambridge at the Pines is going.don't expect to have any more late night walks or relaxation they can't control any situations.
Review from 7/4/15 on Google Aug 2014: The main benefit is that it is on the bus route, so I didn't have to buy a parking decal or deal with driving to campus. Otherwise, living there wasn't the greatest of experiences. First, they put me in a handicap unit (I am not handicapped) with no bathroom counter when the model apartment they showed me had one. I called to inquire about this and was basically told, "Well, a handicap unit is what we had, so deal with it." My dad then called to complain about this, and they told me they would look into providing me with some shelving in the bathroom so I had a place to set my things. I never got said shelving. The neighbors were very immature and inconsiderate. There was a couple above me that got into regular fights that clearly involved lots of knocking down furniture. Review from 8-5-2014 on Google Jun 2014: I have lived at Cambridge for 2+ years and have loved every minute. I really enjoy the location, being so close to campus and especially being so close to the football stadium. The GSU buses pick up on the property, can it get any better? I also really enjoy the staff in the front office. If I ever have an issue, the front office does their best to get it taken care of immediately. If you are looking for somewhere to live, Cambridge at Southern is definitely the place to be. Review from 6-24-2014 on Google
