Cambridge Hall, College Station: An Evidence-Based Review for 2026–2027
Cambridge Hall is a student housing property located at College Station, TX 77840, USA, within the city of Bryan, Texas. It offers studio to four-bedroom unit configurations, with monthly rents ranging from $579 to $799. The property currently holds a Google rating of 4.1 out of 5, based on 275 reviews. This review synthesises the available data, resident feedback, and market context to help prospective tenants decide if Cambridge Hall matches their needs for the 2026–2027 academic year.
Who This Residence Suits
Cambridge Hall appeals to a specific subset of students and young professionals: those who value community atmosphere, on-site amenities, and a location that balances access to commercial areas with a quieter residential setting.
Residents who appreciate outdoor spaces will find the courtyard appealing. Reviewer Wren described it as having a “water fountain and two pools” that were “GORGEOUS!!” and noted the environment as “so serene and peaceful” — a feature that sets this property apart from many student housing complexes where green space is limited.
Socially active residents are also well-served. Reviewer Jaden Curry remarked on “a generous amount of pop up events” organised by staff, suggesting the property invests in tenant engagement. Combined with a swimming pool and gym (listed in the property tags), Cambridge Hall supports a lifestyle where socialising and fitness are integrated into daily routines.
Residents who rely on alternative transportation — such as e-scooters, bicycles, or ridesharing — benefit from the location. Jaden noted being “close to everything outside of academics,” making it easy to “get out the ‘house’.” While the property is not on the busy Texas Avenue thoroughfare, it sits within reach of shopping and dining options.
Small groups or individuals seeking price flexibility should consider Cambridge Hall. With unit types spanning 1-bedroom to 4-bedroom, the property accommodates solo renters, couples (dual occupancy is listed as a tag), and groups of friends who want to share costs. The price range begins at $579 per month, modestly above the city-wide from-price of $559, but does not exceed $799.
Who Should Look Elsewhere
Cambridge Hall is not the best fit for everyone. Several factors, drawn from resident feedback and available data, suggest limitations that could be decisive.
Students who need a full kitchen should proceed with caution. Jaden Curry explicitly states: “You will not get a full kitchen; you have a kitchenette.” For those who cook regularly or require substantial counter and storage space, this trade-off may be significant. The property tags do not list “full kitchen” among amenities.
Early risers with morning classes may encounter logistical friction. Resident Natalie Stuhler raised a specific concern about breakfast timing: “Some of us have to be at school at eight and we don’t have time to get breakfast in the morning because it opens at seven.” She requested an earlier opening time of 6:00 AM. If your schedule demands early-morning meals before 7:00 AM, this could be an inconvenience that no other on-site dining option appears to remedy.
Tenants who rely on public transit or walking to campus should verify the distance. The property address lists College Station, but the exact proximity to university buildings is not specified in the data. The “close to everything” comment suggests car, scooter, or rideshare reliance, given the absence of a university name among the property’s associations.
Budget-conscious renters looking for the absolute lowest price in the city will find cheaper options elsewhere. At $579, Cambridge Hall starts $20 above the city’s lowest published rate of $559. While this difference is small, it may matter for those minimising monthly expenses.
What Residents Actually Say
The three reviews available provide a balanced, unfiltered view of life at Cambridge Hall. They are quoted verbatim below, followed by key takeaways.
Wren (5 stars):
“Toured here a few weeks ago and absolutely love this place! Nice area, not too close to the busy Texas Ave road, but tons of eating/shopping places around! The courtyard with the water fountain and two pools were GORGEOUS!! It is so serene and peaceful, I could sit outside in that area for hours. I also love the fact t”
Interpretation: Wren’s review emphasises aesthetic appeal and location quality. The courtyard is clearly a highlight, and the positioning away from Texas Avenue offers a quieter environment while still providing nearby retail access. The review is cut off but strongly positive regarding first impressions.
Jaden Curry (5 stars):
“It truly is a nice place to stay. You will be close to everything outside of academics so it makes it easier to get out the “house” (especially if you only got a E-Scooter). Amenities are awesome and a generous amount of pop up events will happen from the staff. You will not get a full kitchen; you have a kitchenette (”
Interpretation: Jaden confirms that the property’s strength lies in its non-academic amenities and social programming. The kitchenette limitation is stated plainly — important for prospective renters weighing cooking needs. The e-scooter mention hints that driving or active transport is typical.
Natalie Stuhler (4 stars):
“1. I have three concerns at Cambridge Some of us have to be at school at eight and we don’t have time to get breakfast in the morning because it opens at seven. Can you open it like at six. Because I would also like to get a smoothie on the weekends, but they can’t have it on the weekends because you guys don’t have en”
Interpretation: Natalie’s 4-star rating reflects overall satisfaction but with actionable concerns. The breakfast timing issue is the most specific and recurring complaint. The cut-off text suggests additional concerns, but the breakfast schedule is clearly a pain point for those with 8:00 AM commitments.
Price Positioning vs. City Average
Cambridge Hall is priced moderately within the Bryan/College Station student housing market. With monthly rates from $579 to $799, it sits just above the city’s entry-level price of $559.
- City minimum from-price: $559 per month
- Cambridge Hall minimum from-price: $579 per month ($20 premium above city floor)
- Cambridge Hall maximum price: $799 per month
The city contains at least 31 student housing properties, indicating a competitive market. Cambridge Hall’s starting price is approximately 3.6% above the lowest available rate — a small premium that may reflect the amenities (gym, two pools, courtyard) and location. The maximum of $799 places it in a middle-to-upper tier for larger or more desirable unit types.

Room-Type Guidance
Cambridge Hall lists four unit type categories: 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, 3-bedroom, and 4-bedroom. The “3b” and “4b” designations typically mean units with three or four private bedrooms, often sharing common living spaces. Here is how to think about each:
1-bedroom units are best for solo tenants who value privacy and are willing to pay a premium per person. In a market where shared housing is common, a 1-bedroom can be harder to secure and may fall toward the higher end of the price range.
2-bedroom units work well for two roommates or a couple (dual occupancy is permitted — check with the operator). This configuration balances cost-sharing with moderate privacy.
3-bedroom and 4-bedroom units are designed for groups of three or four tenants. These typically offer the lowest per-person rent, because costs are split among more people. However, residents share kitchenette and living spaces, so the limited kitchen mentioned in reviews becomes a more significant factor.
If you are considering a 3-bedroom or 4-bedroom unit, discuss the kitchenette setup with the operator in advance to ensure it meets your household’s cooking habits.
Booking Timing for 2026–2027
Availability opens from 21 August 2026. For a lease starting in late summer 2026, consider the following timeline:
- Three to six months ahead (March–May 2026): Start reviewing property details and floor plans. Given that the property has generated 275 Google reviews, it is established in the market, but popular unit types (especially 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom) may fill earlier.
- Two to three months ahead (June–July 2026): Contact the operator to confirm availability for your preferred move-in date. Ask about lease terms, deposit requirements, and whether specific units offer full kitchens or only kitchenettes.
- August 2026: Move-in as scheduled. Book any necessary moving services early, as the start of the academic year is a peak period.
The minimum lease term is not specified in the data — confirm this directly, as shorter leases may be available at a different rate.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Cambridge Hall offer furnished units?
The available data does not specify furniture status. Neither unit-type descriptions nor amenity tags mention furnished or unfurnished. Contact the operator directly to ask whether beds, desks, and sofas are provided in each unit type. Many student housing properties in the area offer furnished options, but this varies by lease.
Is parking available?
Parking is not listed among the property tags (gym, laundry_facility, swimming_pool, dual_occupancy are the only tags). The absence of a parking tag means you should verify this with the operator before signing. If you own a car, ask about reserved spots, guest parking, and any additional fees. Residents using e-scooters, as mentioned in one review, may not need parking — but drivers should confirm.
What is the deposit amount?
The deposit field in the data is null, meaning no information is available. Typically, student housing deposits range from one month’s rent to a flat fee. Ask the operator for the exact deposit requirement, any refund conditions, and whether there is a separate fee for amenities or administrative processing.
