Overview
PDP 85207 is a shared student residence located in Chandler, Arizona (address: AZ 85207, USA). It offers weekly pricing between USD 184 and USD 193 — indicative, confirm with the operator. The minimum lease length is 16 weeks. Rent includes utilities, parking, and laundry facilities. The property provides 6‑bedroom and 8‑bedroom units as well as branded independent houses. No availability date is given; travellers should check current openings directly.
The property has a Google rating of 3.9 out of 5, based on 16 reviews. The review text that is available points to several service and maintenance concerns.
Who This Residence Suits
PDP 85207 is a practical option for students or young professionals who need a fully furnished room in a large shared house and prefer a single all‑inclusive bill. Because rent covers electricity, water, internet, and other typical utilities, you avoid the hassle of splitting costs with flatmates. The availability of parking on site makes it convenient if you own a vehicle.
The 6‑bedroom and 8‑bedroom layouts are suited to those who are comfortable living with several other people. Common‑area facilities are shared among a larger group, which can keep individual costs lower than in a smaller apartment or studio. The property also offers a “branded independent house” — likely a dedicated house managed under the same brand — which may appeal to groups who want more privacy while still being part of a managed community.
The minimum lease of 16 weeks (about four months) aligns well with a single academic semester or a short‑term internship placement. If you are in Chandler for a summer programme or a temporary work assignment, this length allows you to secure accommodation without committing to a full year.
Who It Might Not Suit
Based on resident feedback, PDP 85207 may not suit anyone who expects prompt maintenance or a move‑in ready unit. One reviewer stated that a month after moving in, their child’s bed, internet wall socket, and chair were all still broken, and bugs were present. Another noted that the air conditioning was broken upon arrival. If you cannot tolerate delays in repairs or an initial lack of basic functioning, this residence could cause frustration.
Similarly, the elevators have drawn criticism. One resident described them as “super scary” and reported that tenants are told they are not allowed to use the stairs. That policy may be a safety or security rule, but the condition of the lifts is a clear concern. Anyone with mobility issues or a strong aversion to using potentially unsafe lifts should weigh this factor heavily.
The 6‑ or 8‑bedroom units are not suitable if you require a private bathroom or a very quiet living environment. Larger shared houses naturally come with more noise, different schedules, and less personal space. If you strongly value solitude or have specific study‑time needs, a smaller unit or a solo apartment would be a better fit.
What Residents Actually Say
Three Google reviews are available, all carrying low ratings (2 or 3 out of 5). Here is the verbatim text of each:
- Doc Cuda (rating 2): “A month since move in my kids bed, internet wall socket and chair are all still busted, bugs. Looking to see if he can cancel and get some compensation and just commute from home. Its a dump, an expensive dump. Nothing gets fixed. My sons dorm is a ten thousand dollar 8 month fix-er-upper rental. Hard to sleep, cant st”
- Carter Van Gelder (rating 3): “No water refills on upper floors. air conditioning was broken when moving in.”
- Sonal Strasser (rating 2): “Something must be done with the elevators! They are super scary. They tell you you are not allowed to use the stairs!? What is up with that?”
These comments indicate a pattern of unresolved maintenance (broken furniture, internet, AC), pest issues, and elevator safety concerns. The “no water refills on upper floors” suggests possible plumbing or water pressure problems. The overall tone is of dissatisfaction with the condition of the building and the responsiveness of management.
While the Google rating of 3.9 is moderate, the small number of reviews (16) means the score is not highly robust. The available written feedback is more negative than the aggregate number suggests.
Price Positioning vs. City From‑Price
Chandler’s cheapest listed student property starts at USD 166 per week. PDP 85207’s lowest weekly price (USD 184) is USD 18 above that benchmark. However, the property’s rent is inclusive of utilities, which in many other buildings are charged separately. When you factor in typical utility costs (electricity, water, internet), the effective total may be closer to or slightly higher than the city floor. The top end of USD 193 is still within the range of mid‑priced shared accommodation in Chandler.
Because prices are indicative and can vary by unit, room type, and lease start date, you should confirm the exact figure with the operator before committing. Chandler has 48 listed student properties, so there is a variety of options. PDP 85207 sits above the entry‑level price but below what you would pay for a private studio or a 1‑bedroom apartment in the same area.
Room‑Type Guidance
- 6‑bedroom unit: Likely a house or large apartment with six private bedrooms and shared kitchen/living/bathrooms. Suitable for those who want a medium‑sized group.
- 8‑bedroom unit: Larger group; common areas will be busier. May offer a slightly lower per‑person price.
- Branded independent house: A whole property managed under the same brand, possibly with fewer bedrooms or a more self‑contained layout. This option might appeal to a group of friends who want to live together without being part of a larger building.
All unit types include parking and laundry. You should ask the operator which room sizes are available at the time you book, as availability changes frequently.
Booking Timing
The minimum lease is 16 weeks, which is relatively short. If you need accommodation for a full academic year (typically 9–10 months), you would need to verify whether extensions are possible or whether you must move out after 16 weeks. Given the negative feedback about maintenance, it is advisable to book as early as possible and to request a pre‑move‑in inspection or a guarantee that all reported issues will be fixed before you arrive.
Since no exact move‑in date is provided by the data source, you should contact the operator directly to confirm the next available start date. For a summer 2026 or fall 2026 start, begin your search at least two to three months in advance to secure a room and to allow time for any necessary correspondence about repairs.
