Who This Residence Suits (and Who Should Look Elsewhere)
The London, located at College Station, TX 77840 (city of Bryan), is a off-campus apartment complex designed primarily for students attending nearby universities. Its unit mix of two‑bedroom (2b), three‑bedroom (3b), and four‑bedroom (4b) layouts, combined with monthly rents starting at USD 639 and going up to USD 805 (indicative — confirm with the operator), places it in the mid‑range for the Bryan student market. The property offers a gym, a swimming pool, and a dedicated study area — amenities that appeal to students who want both fitness and quiet study spaces without leaving the complex.
Who it suits: Students who prioritise a social atmosphere and want built‑in amenities. The rating dimensions show that staff, social life, internet, and location all score above 4.0 (out of 5), which suggests the management fosters a friendly environment and the Wi‑Fi is reliable. The location in College Station is convenient for Texas A&M University and other educational institutions — though no specific university names are given in the data, the address and city context strongly point to the Texas A&M ecosystem. Residents who like having a gym and pool on‑site will find these facilities useful, and the study area provides an alternative to the library.
Who should look elsewhere: Students on a very tight budget. The city’s from‑price for student housing is USD 559 per month (indicative), which is USD 80 lower than The London’s minimum. If you can accept fewer amenities or a longer commute, you may find cheaper options. Also, students who prefer a quiet, maintenance‑free experience should be aware of some recurring complaints about management responsiveness (see reviews below). The property’s cleaning and amenities scores are both 3.5, which indicates that common areas and equipment may not be top‑notch. Finally, the property does not offer studio or 1b units; if you want complete privacy, a 2b shared apartment (or a 3b/4b unit) may not suit you.
What Residents Actually Say
With 1,394 Google reviews and an average rating of 4.0, The London has a generally positive reputation, but individual experiences vary. Here are three verbatim excerpts from the data:
“I’ve lived here going on 3 years now, I started in a 2x2 and transferred to a 3x3 because I liked the floor plan layout better. I didn’t have issues with my original unit and I don’t have any issues now. My apt is comfortable and in my personal opinion super cute! I love the property, the location, and most importantly” — Bieryn Elliott, 5‑star review
This long‑term resident highlights that the floor plans are flexible and that the location and comfort level are strong points. She mentions no issues in three years, suggesting that for some units, maintenance is adequate.
“I have had such a great experience living in this apartment complex! A huge shoutout to Bieryn, who has been absolutely amazing. Every time I need assistance, Bieryn is incredibly helpful, accommodating, and genuinely nice. It is so rare to find management and staff who care this much about their residents. If you are ” — Cristabela Mendoza, 5‑star review
This review praises a specific staff member (possibly the same Bieryn from the previous review, who could be a leasing agent or manager). The resident feels the staff goes above and beyond, which aligns with the staff rating dimension of 4.1.
“Buys brand new golf carts for staff but does not: - fix my neighbors broken lock on the door - fix the terrible speed bumps - fix the old microwaves - stops buying cups for the coffee machine for “eco friendly means” -fix the outlets in the study room -fix the gates from being wide open -DID NOT CLEAN UP A DEAD ROTTING” — Grace Folsom, 1‑star review
This negative review points to several maintenance and management issues: broken locks, speed bumps, old microwaves, lack of coffee cups (blamed on eco‑friendliness), broken study room outlets, open gates (security concern), and an unremoved dead animal. The resident feels that money was spent on staff golf carts instead of fixing basic problems. This review aligns with the lower cleaning and amenities scores (3.5 each) and suggests that if you encounter issues, the response may be slow.
Overall sentiment: Most residents are happy with the social life and location, but maintenance responsiveness and some common‑area deficiencies exist. If you are willing to advocate for yourself (or get lucky with a well‑maintained unit), the experience can be positive.
Price Positioning vs. City Average and Room‑Type Guidance
The Bryan student‑housing market has a city from‑price of USD 559 per month (indicative). The London’s monthly rent range of USD 639–805 sits above that entry‑level figure. For context, there are 31 student properties in the city, so competition is moderate. The London’s price premium is partly explained by its amenities (gym, pool, study area) and its location close to campus.
Room‑type guidance:
- 2‑bedroom (2b): Likely the most affordable option within The London, starting around the lower end of the price range. Ideal for one roommate or a couple who want a separate bedroom.
- 3‑bedroom (3b): One reviewer transferred from a 2x2 to a 3x3, citing a better floor plan layout. This suggests the 3b units have a different (possibly more open) design.
- 4‑bedroom (4b): Usually the most expensive per person because of larger common areas, but per‑person rent may be similar to the 2b if split evenly. Best for a group of four who already know each other.
All prices are indicative — confirm with the operator. Note that no deposit amount is given in the data; confirm this directly during booking.
Booking Timing
Availability opens from 16‑August‑2026 (as per the data). Given that popular floor plans (especially 2b or 3b) tend to fill early, it is wise to start your search 3‑6 months before that date. Since this is a 2026 start, you likely have time to tour the property, read more current reviews, and compare with other 31 properties in Bryan. No lease‑term minimum is provided in the data; clarify this with the management.
If you are considering a 4b unit, booking earlier may help secure a group‑friendly layout. Be aware that the negative reviews mention gates being left open — if security is a priority, ask about current gate maintenance during your tour.
