| - Camden Canyon apartments are very nice inside. I lived in a two bedroom apartment with a roommate for just under a year, and the non-master bedroom still had a walk-in closet and ceiling fan. The balcony was very big, and there was a lot of storage space inside as well as in the balcony closet. If we ever had a problem we needed fixed, it was handled within a reasonable amount of time, and the maintenance staff was very friendly. The property is well maintained, and the neighborhood is within walking distance of Boca Park, Whole Foods, Target, and Vons.
I'm giving Camden Canyon two stars for a number of reasons, though. In my opinion, I could've found a better rate for a two bedroom elsewhere if I hadn't been in a bind. Camden Canyon is also the type of property where they drive around and look for expired tags on cars - I saw them do it and I don't appreciate that sort of invasive/unnecessary sort of action. You also are required to pay $45/month for Cox TV, even if you can live without TV like I can.
My biggest problem was with the Camden Canyon staff. When moving out, and breaking the lease to do so (which I've never done), they insisted on the cleaning free up front even though we weren't moving out for 60 days. You also had to pay the lease breaking fee (one month's rent) within 10 days. Much like the tag checking, some staff members butted their heads into business that wasn't theirs. After I had paid half of the lease breaking fee, they went on to ask my roommate why I wasn't paying all of it when I was the one who instigated the move. That sort of drama instigation is clearly uncalled for, especially when I had been in the office less than 24 hours ago taking care of things. They are also unwilling to work with you on (what I believe are) simple things - they will not send the security deposit to only my roommate, when they are well aware that she is the only one who paid the deposit.
I also received conflicting information from the staff - one person told me there'd be paperwork to sign off on when the 60 days notice was officially up, and then I was told that wasn't the case. I was told I could turn in my keys early, but then there was an early termination fee on our final bill (which was eventually removed).
TL;DR - I wanted out of these apartments enough to break my lease, and it was well worth it. I received much better service and less "red tape" hassle in a more affordable apartment. I won't live in a Camden property again, most likely.
