Comment: Just moved in this property and my car was stolen less then two weeks of occupancy. Security at Camden is none existent. As crime goes up, so does the rent. If you move here be ready to down grade your living standards as it will be taken from you at your expense

Comment: The maintenance staff are great, but management of the building is horrible. We were just notified by the USPS that packages wont be delivered to the building anymore because theyre have been so many thefts. Car breakins dont even make it into conversations with neighbors because weve gotten so used to them.The material used for the apartrments is the cheapest possible (cabinets are actually a compressed cardboard with a plastic overwrap!).. The gates and doors are regularly broken or left wide open to facilitate the constant construction (over a year now).

Comment: DO NOT RENT HERE!!!DO NOT RENT HERE!!!You are warned.This is a long review but you should read it before you lease/rent at Camden Harbor View.I will continue to update this review with my experiences as I expect more to arise:6/2/2024:I am 4 months into my lease at Camden Harbor View and it has been my worst experience as a renter. Every negative review you read is 10 times worse as most complaints are on the resident app (which you only get access to AFTER signing your lease).Every positive review is from before people move in (ask yourself why).Maintenance is SLOW and its 50/50 if they resolve your issue. Ive been waiting 4 months to have my fridge fixed (is that even legal ?) . There have been PLUMBING and hot water issues FOR YEARS. At least 3 years, minimum.The staff at the leasing/resident office are generally unhelpful and are sometimes nasty/mean. The manager is extremely unhelpful and passive aggressive. Youre better off going on the Camden website than speaking with him as that is extent of his helpfulness in resolving resident issues. If you want proof, look at all their copy and paste responses on negative reviews.The staff and manager will generally look for ways to blame you and absolve themselves of any responsibility in ALL ISSUES. So BE CAREFUL when you go to them to ask for help. Security, maintenance, theft, loss of property - it doesnt matter, they will BLAME YOU. They are quite competent at this.They will literally just regurgitate company policy over and over like robots or completely ignore you instead of engaging residents helpfully. They are nice before you sign your lease though, make of that what you will.You are also FORCED to use SPECTRUM WIFI which fails on a weekly basis. Weekly is not an exaggeration, including work hours.Do not rent here. It is worse than you think.

Comment: Neighbor had bike and mail stolen last night from here. No Sat or Sun security because the worst happens at these times. Too many bad things happen to tenants here, especially in the garage, even motorcycles were stolen before. Theft all the time with packages every day.

Comment: My friend lives here. This place is a joke. They pay Yelp a monthly fee to have negative reviews removed. FACTS. I worked here as a temp so I know.Everything is just one big facade. Cars get not only towed constantly for no legitimate reason and broken into on a weekly basis, but also set on fire in the parking structure! And MANAGEMENT WONT HELP YOU! Just make sure you have full coverage for your vehicle. Youll thank me later. Enough said.

Comment: AVOID THIS APARTMENT AT ALL COST. If you want to save your money and mental health, dont sign the lease.1) Terrible Management, leasing office wont help you with anything.2) No maintenance services. They dont fix anything for you. If something broke, You need to figure out by yourself.3) Paid parking but they wont protect your car.4) You need to pay Internet fees to the apartment and it goes outage.5) Rats and Cockroaches everywhere.

Comment: Once you sign a lease, they dont care about you at all. Our building cant get USPS packages because there have been so many thefts. When I let the building management know, they told me to contact the postmaster to resolve it. They couldnt see a reason to get involved.Their construction crew and other workers prop the buildings entrance open regularly for full days for weeks at a time. They wont change a thing about how they operate.Cars are regularly broken into in the secure parking lot ($100/month per vehicle for a spot) The photos were taken over a 1 week period when the parking garage gates were stuck open. This is common. Each photo is from a different day over a 20 day span this summer.Absolutely no concern for security.UPDATE - It took almost 3 years, but theyve gotten better at security. But still keeping the two stars. For the second time maintenance, which has a really good team, accidentally damaged a light fixture in my ceiling, which is 20 high. They were changing the bulb October of 2023. The light fixture started sparking. We taped the switch so it wouldnt be used until it was fixed. It is now May.. Over 7 MONTHS LATER and management still hasnt sent an electrician to replace it. 2.5 years ago the dark kitchen floor was scratched by maintenance fixing the fridge. IT IS STILL NOT FIXED because management doesnt care. Ive placed related service tickets that just get cancelled without explanation. I submitted a complaint to HQ in Texas.... Still nothing.

Comment: Found this really nice shop inside Camden harbor work/ live Loft in LongBeach called Nina B trap hair Salon. Classy and its really a vibe here the lady Nina was doing my hair tonight and she ran out because she heard the thumps and noises coming from rats in her walls and/or ceiling ... I COULD not believe it .. Loud as hell sounds like Bigfoot in the walls . Crazy ... she said she told management about it . And yet and still nothing really has been done. So sad she mentioned she moving soon . Management or leasing should do something about it but I had to post .. see video

Comment: What a wonderful community to live in. Great neighbors, amazing amenities, and the staff couldnt be more accommodating. Update. This place was great in the beginning. The unresponsiveness of maintenance and the office is very disheartening. Major leak from the unit above me. The walls have been cut out and covered in plastic for months, nobody calls or gives updates. I call and ask for an update and nobody returns my calls. Had a clog and a leak in my kitchen. Maintenance came after multiple phone calls while I wasnt home. They replaced the disposal but did not fix the clog. They also left my front door propped open with the deadbolt. Very irresponsible!!!!! Thank God my dog did not get out. Think twice before moving in here.

Comment: This is a total surprise! I went to get a tour of the apartments and they sent me on a self-guided tour. This is where I would walk around the complex myself and view the model apartment (2 bedroom 2 bath) on my own. The apartment itsel6is great! The space, location, and price for DTLB was amazing! However.... as I was on my tour, I had 5 different families approach me and alert me of their situation and why I should NOT move there. I heard everything from rats in the walls, car break-ins on a regular, 2:00AM fire alarm on a consistent basis (weekly), kids trespassing, home invasions, multie robberies, but most importantly... the management does NOTHING about it!!! 😮😬 I asked one of the managers, or sales reps (not sure what theyre title is, about the comments and they said, we dont know anything about those things.... And that maybe true... however, 3 of the families showed me the apartment complex community chat system they have to post incidents and wowza!!! It was VERY CONVERNING!!!! DEFINITELY BE WARE OF WHAT YOU ARE SEEING. It may look good from the outside, but ots definitely not worth the pain, headache, or sacrifice of life, to protect yourself. I want to thank the residents on warning me. As I was leaving, a women was complaining about RATS.being in her apartment. Wow... I knew this was not the place for me... love the price, but dont want the problems. Hope they get better. Enjoy.

Comment: This is by far our last straw, PEST issues. Weve recently had a small, furry, creature scurry in our kitchen. This is because maintenance changed our appliances but left holes for them to get into our apartment! Camden refuses to take accountability for this or reimburse us for all the money we spent on a hotel because they were closed for the day and couldnt offer any solutions. MANY people are complaining about this issue. Pest control will do what, spray the common areas and lay traps? Thats it. We asked management well who is going to get the traps and clean up with the droppings, they didnt have an answer. My sister and others on our floor say that they can hear things in the walls and vents. There are restaurants on the first floor and I KNOW they have this issue as well. This is violations of health codes in various areas and NEEDS to be solved now.The Camden management team is terrible. The staff is useless. The maintenance crew tries their best with what and who they have. There are about 4 maintenance workers in rotation for a building of 500 or so units. So it takes forever to get maintenance to do anything. It is super scary to live through. We are on our way out but its just been a long road.All in all, I would not recommend Camden. It was at the peak around 2014-2016 and it has gone downhill since. People arent as friendly anymore (rightfully so, we are all living through trying, hard times). Management sucks. Corporate sucks. They like to put bandaids where tourniquets need to be placed (small solutions to large problems until everyone is complaining and it damage is completely unrepairable and irreversible.)Save your time and money by looking elsewhere.Yes, we live downtown, but Camden is not proactive. They have homeless people in and around all the amenities and on the grounds. They are violent, they are belligerent, and they are dangerous to the tenants and families who pay to live here. They are hanging around without a care in the world. They have lived in stairwells and other places on the property. Camden decided to get security, who do not work around the clock in order to ensure that tenants are in a secured environment. In addition, there is no way to call security personnel when we do not feel secure, and we’re instructed to contact the local police department. Then we are informed that there is nothing the police can do without assistance from the apartment managers. Which brings me back to the point that cameras do not work and our advances to retrieve footage of incidents were denied after multiple attempts.Save your time and money by looking elsewhere. We will be out soon.

Comment: Edit #2:Dropping another star due to the maintenance team having slowly worsened to the point of near worthlessness. Tickets are frequently closed without comment and with no visible action. It should not take 6+ months and a dozen tickets to replace the now missing handle on the trash chute when I could run to a hardware store and do it within a day.My washing machine crapped out over Christmas and it took *over a month* to have someone even stop by my unit to take a look at it, let alone diagnose the issue, get the replacement parts required, and actually fix it.I understand that the maintenance team is apparently understaffed, but the fact that this has persisted for as long as it has implies a systemic issue with its management that prevents it from hiring capable personnel or from retaining those who perform well.Edit:Dropping a star because of a few minor issues that are compounding of late.Reserved parking spots were added - yay! - but to get one is an extra $50/mo, which not many have opted for. This leaves general parking at a way higher utilization and makes it hard to find spots for guests who visit.The smoke free policy enforcement has been a lax mass email blast that has done nothing to curtail people smoking in stairwells or in areas that are noticable to nearby units. Supposedly there are security patrols, but attempting to contact them is an exercise in futility.Despite assurances by the main office, the non-optional included spectrum internet does not offer a way to hard-wire to the network unless youre lucky enough to have an access point with an open port in your unit (not guaranteed). Even then, without resorting to powerwall adapters or MoCA, theres no way to it to other devices easily when the access point is in a closet in one corner of the unit.Hard wiring wouldnt be a major concern if the WiFi coverage was good, but its overly congested and frequently sees bandwidth limitations - 40 Mbps w/ high ping for what should be a 200 Mbps service - or just spotty connections. Not to mention the whitelisted PAN setup is a pain to configure.Original review still stands, but minor grievances and aging units is definitely making this a hard sell for the Rent, even if the location and amenities are quite good.Original:Well established downtown Long Beach apartment complex. Reasonably priced for the location and features on offer, though the older buildings are certainly starting to show their age.Management company runs properties across the nation, so the standard of quality for their representatives is set above the average crapshoot that local one-off property management seems to be.Excellent service team rapidly responds to tickets.

Comment: Nice places for lease in the heart of downtown Long Beach, CA. Close to shops, restaurants, the Convention Center, Comedy Club, Shoreline Village, and the 710 and 405 freeways. Very accessible to everything that is Long Beach, including water sports, ferry to Catalina Island, weekend events and festivals, proximity to 2nd Street with more cool shops and restaurants and youll never be bored even within the community, which is fully contained with amenities such as pools, gyms, party rooms, BBQ areas, and the leasing staff is very nice and professional. Theres also a store for picking snacks on premises.

Comment: The building is beautiful and staff was polite and knowledgeable. Our only issue was the high rent prices and the unit we viewed was very small for that rate. We also read horrible reviews from other tenants complaining about the violence that occurred on the grounds, cars being damaged, and homelessness which nothing seemed to be done to resolve the issues. We declined to apply.

Comment: Updating again just so people are aware of what they are getting into!!!2/16/24 and still no repairs done in my apartment! I see someone recently asked the office and about the girl with no roof and they told them they have 24/7 maintenance but believe me it is all a joke at this apartment complex! The “fire pit lounge” has been removed months ago, you are forced to pay for cable and internet that barely works and now we have many tenants complaining of roaches and rates! Beware!!!Updated 1/9/24. I have now lived with my apartment “under construction” for over 6 weeks! Very little/poor communication on what’s going on. Rent is way too expensive here to have to live like this and not given any support or retributions from Camden because they say the water leak was not their fault! It wasn’t mine either and yet I’m the one with no walls!Getting anything fixed is a joke. Took 3 months to get my dishwasher fixed and people telling me someone was coming to look when they never showed or reporting that someone came and “figured out what was wrong with it” without anyone actually showing up to look. Would open a service request just to have it closed or no response for weeks.

Comment: Went to view this apartment. My appointment was at 2 pm and the office was closed. They booked my appointment and left the office locked. Anyway, I came back an hour later for a self-guided tour then, they made me download an app and gave me instructions on how to navigate the building etc. I went to view the apartments one bed and 2 bed and there were roaches crawling in both. In fact, when I was briefing me about the apartments I even brought up that I had read in the views that there is a roach infestation and she told me there isn’t and that they have pest control that comes once a month. I also asked her about one of the tenants and how their ceiling came apart and that she had been living without a ceiling for weeks and this girl just totally played dumb lol don’t live here.

Constant break-ins! Over priced and not worth the dangers that come from living here. The leasing office and the manager are not responsive to the concerns of their tenants.

Comment: Recent local news report says teenagers are vandalizing property and tenants, setting fires, and you can’t even enjoy the amenities because they’re taking over and security does nothing. Before moving here I would check local stories and read all reviews! From the pictures of residents posted, this place looks like a HUD property with the overpainted walls, rust window frames, and dirty walls.. there are much nicer properties around with better rates.

Comment: The amenities are wonderful BUT we have had a package stolen day 2 of moving in, and also the carpet has fleas guessing the person who lived there before had a dog or cat. Also our neighbors smoke cigarettes so we can’t leave our windows open for fresh air. (Non smoking community) the matinence person who came to fix our toilet scratched the inside of it up really bad the white is gone so it’s just this rusty brown color which looks like a permanent poop mark in the toilet.

Comment: Camden properties have really went too far. Please see the pictures and ask yourself is that move in condition? This is what they expected my 20 year old son, and his first experience being on his own to live in. .This is what $4000 a month will get you at Camden Harbor View in Long Beach, California.Not only did they let him sign a lease, knowing that the property was absolutely filthy and uninhabitable, the rotten people working at the desk for the property management on the weekend took defense real quick and were real short with me when I was trying to explain and show them their property in depth with a few pictures I took.Then just one short day to cash the check so I wouldn’t get it back to put towards another place. Not to mention the U-Haul was two days at a minimum over to due to their and two nights at a hotel because I wasn’t about to put my property in that infestation pests cockroaches and whatever else was there unknown.I can’t imagine if the corporate even cares the upper management of Camden need to figure that has some type of Dignity and respect to make this, right and immediately give my son back his deposit The entire deposit do you want to take two days off? Prorating him back what’s left of the deposit? Can you believe this everybody knows Even a child knows that place is extremely filthy. Now I understand that it’s probably a few bad people or maybe just one bag person there who knows and Camden truly doesn’t want their properties rented out like that especially on the first day of possession when it’s not even in movable or living condition however that’s why I’m reaching out here. Giving them an opportunity to have the review removed an opportunity for them to make up for the hotel stay to take the two days off I what they charge my son and pay for his U-Haul. That was two days over. Know if this company was any decent, they would go ahead. And make it right. So we will give them an opportunity to do so. However, if I don’t Tuesday that’s three days then they can expect a small claims lawsuit at the local Courthouse here and trust me with the judge sees those pictures and the lack of care, and the lack of responsibility, knowing that it’s their fault and there’s no doubt about it He’s gonna lay down the law in my son’s favorite and probably for 3 to 7 times the that were requesting.This is an edit. Apparently my son was told by the management team that was there on Friday. That’s the day he took possession of the uninhabitable garden, do you know the third world country apartment, he was told that there would be a exterminator there at 9 AM and told him to to vacate the property, and had him sign something saying that he was OK with exterminator to make it, or give it a chance anyways, to make it right, however, they never showed up so not only did they deliver the absolute worst possible service in a total useless apartment, but they also lied on top of it to compound the horrific reality of being a total failure. And speaking of reality, I don’t think I’ve ever taken a quicker deuce in my life then I did at that apartment.. I got off the toilet and in record time. My son is pretty shy, but I’m not, so I thought it might be a good idea and two add a few of the neighbors if they had any unwanted visitors in the form of a pest or insect(s) one of the new neighbors that just moved in as my son did, had said no. I believe her however, she was only there for two hours, but I did ask everyone I came in contact with between The Apartments and the parking garage and they all said yes, there is an infestation. One of them suggested to take refuge in building number two as my son was in building number five and no sooner than that was said the manager approached my wife and son, and made that very same suggestion. I guess the reasoning is with their mentality the closer to the leasing office the better condition the building will be in since the leasing agent Hass to give tours to new prospects, seeking to lease or become future resident(s).lazy people.

Comment: They are gorgeous on Google and very expensive. It makes sense after I was viewing with the amenities they offer. Cable, pool, security front doors, dog park, secured garage, 24/7 maintenance. Its expensive but good for those who want to be in a luxury apartment and can handle the costs

Comment: As a former resident of this property, it is with regret that I must share my disappointing experience for the benefit of others who might be considering moving in. This property had a serious pest control problem which had been unaddressed for an extended period, severely impacting my standard of living.During my tenancy, I was consistently troubled by a rampant rat infestation, which the management failed to adequately handle. The smell was not only unpleasant but made living conditions unbearable. The issue persisted for 6 weeks despite numerous complaints, making me question the propertys commitment to tenant comfort and safety.Upon my move out due to this unresolved pest issue, things took a turn for the worse. The management sent me a move-out statement with an outstanding balance of $800, with $500 deducted from my deposit. However, despite my repeated requests, I was never provided with an itemized bill detailing the alleged charges.Fast forward six months later, this unresolved issue has taken a toll on my financial standing. Without any further communication or attempts to address my concerns, the property management abruptly sent the matter to collections. As a result, my credit score has been negatively affected, an action that I find both unethical and unfair.It is vital for prospective tenants to be aware of these issues before making a decision. I hope that the management will take this feedback seriously and make necessary changes to their pest control measures and dispute resolution processes, ensuring no future tenants have to endure such experiences.In summary, I would urge extreme caution before deciding to lease from this property. The unresolved pest issue, the lack of communication, and the inappropriate handling of alleged charges have made my experience with this property one I would not wish upon anyone.Please consider this review carefully before making your decision. Its not just about finding a place to live, its about ensuring your home is a safe, comfortable, and respectful environment.

Comment: I have to update my review after living here, because despite having access to a covered garage, our car was stolen given Camden corporate’s inability to address issues in a timely matter. They only have leasing specialists and sales managers on staff at the Harbor View apartments— this means that there is no property manager despite thousands of units.The door to the garage is broken, allowing our car to be stolen. As we work from home, we don’t have theft coverage and now have a gutted car we still have to make payments on that we need to fix out of pocket.I will not be renewing my lease here and I recommend looking elsewhere if you can afford it. There are many luxury apartments in the area with similar amenities, and although the sales staff here tries their best, they are not equipped to deal with the very real issues of downtown living.

Comment: They really don’t care about their residents but they care about that rent parking is horrible your car definitely going to get broken into . A lot of the neighbors run to the leasing off and tell on you for anything and everything . They will add fees, extra cost for parking etc anything to get money out you . I don’t recommend this place to anyone .

Youre made to do everything online which is fine with me, but then when youre ready for move in day, they hit you with a bunch of hurdles to overcome before you can even sign the lease. Property manager has zero interest in providing customer service or calling a concerned new resident back. I will never work or live with a Camden Property again in my life. To think this was going to be a great working relationship for the company and my foundation that I wouldnt allow my enemy to live in one of their properties.

Comment: The apartment was given to me in an unsanitary condition, and I became temporarily disabled due to illness. There was a black substance in the faucets, fixtures and/or drainage systems in the kitchen and master bath. I asked them to professionally clean it, and install a water filter that I purchased, and they said no to both. I submitted a claim, and they sent a discriminatory letter that implied they would disregard and be dismissive of anything I say, and would not resolve this in an amicable way; they would not compensate me for the harm, damage, or loss. It was disgusting. The staff entered my apartment under false pretenses, without notice, and when I was not home. When I first moved in I noticed things were missing, while requested services had not been completed, although they were reported as completed. 2020-2021, on a service request for the toilet the staff smeared faces on the wall. I reported there was a foul smelling liquid coming from the leaky ceiling in the guest bathroom in 2022, and they refused to do anything until May 2023. There are still 6 x 1 holes in the bathroom ceiling, for weeks now. I believe a staff member arranged to steal my vehicle from the residential parking garage, and the staff logged into my account to print parking passes, without my knowledge or permission, shortly after, my vehicle was stolen. The neighbors are noisy and nosey. Loud pounding and banging that rattle my apartment is almost a daily issue. The next door neighbor gave a false gossip statement to the government, and we have never even met, or had a conversation before; the neighbors defamation caused me harm. I am so disgusted. My rent has been raised twice since I moved in, and I have been living here for two years and 10 months.I believe I am being harassed, and subjected to unfair and unlawful housing practices. Camden Harbor View is trying to recover the money that was withheld by the Housing Authority of the City of Long Beach due to abatement, directly from me. We all received the notice of inspection, 1st failed inspection notice, 2nd failed inspection notice, and abatement notice, however, they are ignoring that process even occurred, and robbing me, and trying to collect the HUD portion of rent directly from me, against the law. Timmique Carter placed a Pay or Quit Notice on my door even though HACLB/HUD served them with the legal documents saying I only had to pay my tenant portion. They confiscated the balance that was in my tenant account; approximately $1,500.Return my money to my account!Also, I requested in writing in March to remove the parking fee from my account, since they stole my vehicle, and I was still charged for parking in May and June. Further, I was charged a late fee for rent in May when the records showed the rent was paid in full on the 3rd of the month; before the rent due date. You owe me for the inappropriately charged late fees, the inappropriately charged parking fees, and whatever money you took for me during the abatement.These people contributed to the view that LA County people are evil zombies who abuse their jobs to hurt people, instead of learning and demonstrating self control and mental stability. I will be so happy when I can relocate away from this zone, and I hope Gods wrath, and hell fire hit this place hard. Ill make friends elsewhere, because I am too disgusted by the lack of morals and lawlessness that has shown to be the norm of these Los Angeles County people. There is an extremely deep and severe loss of trust, and the goal is to live in a different countRy. My life is in waiting until I can relocate to somewhere that is not lawless and where people still have souls, morals, and lives that I can clearly see matters... This place isnt it.

Comment: The apartments which are remodeled are beautiful, however there is a huge lack of communication from the leasing office, and the reason for my review. After doing an in person tour, I had interest in a corporate lease and sent numerous emails about my interest in applying. It took 3 days to get any response about this. There was no clarification about the entire application process and what would be needed for a corporate lease, all I was told was there was a paper application. This was sent to me after 5 days, and instead I was sent a personal residential application. In an email I had sent to ask about corporate lease application clarification, I mentioned that I live an hour away and would like to clarify everything to do with a corporate lease before driving to Long Beach to sign the paperwork. I had to call numerous times and send multiple emails, which I did not hear back from. Courtney had not responded to many of my calls or emails, and I had only come to know about the need for a 2 year business credit after driving out and filling out the wrong online application sent 5 days prior. I had to drive an hour out and sit down to get any real clarification. Tim was not respectful, and we heard no apology for the lack of communication or lack of detailed explanation for everything that was needed for a corporate lease, and no apology for making us drive an hour instead of communicating through email or over the phone. My issues is not with the fact that I needed to have proof of 2 years built business credit, it was the fact that I had only come to know about it after filling out the wrong application sent several days prior and from having to drive out so far for this clarification which could have been responded to in an email or over a phone call. I have an issue with the huge lack in communication, miscommunication and lack of professionalism from this leasing office. If anyone ends up living here, beware that it may be days before any of your concerns or questions are addressed. Pray you dont have any emergency, for the leasing office may take days to get back to you.

Comment: I don’t recommend you live here, cars get broken into regularly leasing staff does nothing . The way they operate will either leave you in debt or making you want to move . They tell you one thing then do something else . They say they will work with you that’s not true. You will definitely have plumbing problems, parking issues they love to tow cars that’s their thing . It’s not the quite place so if your looking for that it’s not here . They are going to go up on rent drastically no rent control at all . They definitely make things hard and difficult.

Comment: I have been calling for days about getting my holding deposit back on an apartment I applied for last week. An agent with Camden Living just keeps telling me theyve escalated my request to the Harbor View leasing office and theyll be in contact, but nobody has reached out. My roommate and I applied for apartment 1210 last week and never got any updates after various attempts to follow up. When I log into the applicant portal, it says the apartment is no longer available, so I assume it leased to someone else. As you can imagine, wed both like our $250 holding fee back. I sent an email through the website, and the only response has been automatic messages telling me to schedule a tour and apply. Currently been waiting for 10+ minutes trying to reach someone on the phone. This has been happening daily. Very frustrating. Terrible service, got scammed out of $500 in holding fees. Would like an agent to contact me as soon as possible.

Comment: The worst living arrangement Ive ever experienced in my +15years of renting. Horrible service, that is forward-facing very friendly (all comments and responses seem very friendly, but are hollow and with no intention to reach an amicable solution) but only sees their residents as bottom-line financial numbers and not actual people.In my 1yr of living at Camden:- 2 wheels were stolen off my car parked in Camden gated garage (which costs $100/mo to park in). Zero assistance was provided by Camden.- 3 separate attempts where someone tried to break into my 3rd story apartment.- 3 deliveries that USPS confirmed were delivered but were never received (Read: were stolen).- 1 drive-by shooting at nearby Pike Outlets (

Comment: I want to give a shout out to Jeremy on the maintenance crew for Camden Harbor! Our first night in our apartment we had issues with our door not locking from the outside. With work and obligations the next day, you can imagine how quickly the stress set in knowing I wouldn’t be able to leave until it was fixed. Jeremy came by after hours (almost 9 pm!) and took a look at the door.Turns out it needed a whole new motherboard for the electronic lock. He assured me he would return first thing in the morning to replace it. Sure enough, the next morning he texted promptly to let me know he was working on it and would be by shortly! He was so professional and saved the day, literally!Jeremy thank you again and keep up the great work!

Comment: I live in the apartments next door and the alarms are so loud and are always on frequently. A loud buzzing sounds that goes off at all times of the day. This sound is currently keeping all of us neighbors up for up at 2am.The fact that they don’t have someone to turn off the alarm is very frustrating . I’m currently writing this review at 3:22 am and the buzzing started at 2:30 am and I’m stuck awake when I have work in a few hours.. common. Managers, do better and don’t make all the people around you suffer.

Comment: First and foremost I want to thank the staff for all they do and their responsiveness to any need we have had. I have been here for a few years and I absolutely love the team. They are very attentive and do their best to make sure their tenants are happy and taken care of. Even with the recent renovations in the works they have done their best to make sure we have not lost the amenities we have. Some people can see temporary relocations of features such as the fitness center as an inconvenience but it really isnt major. I would rather take a few extra steps than to lose the amenity altogether. From the perks to the luxurious units and amazing area with so much to do, Camden Harbor View has so much to offer! Ive read some of the other reviews and frankly I dont get it. If youre unhappy with anything then find a new home, its simple. Ultimately I have never experienced anything as described. I have nothing but positive remarks to make about this place! Safe and sound with me and my little family. I definitely recommend this place for those looking for a new home in Long Beach!

Comment: I do not recommend these apartments to anyone. The 6 years I have been here, the customer service, security and everything else has deteriorated. They are called luxury apartments but are in fact a dump. Its not safe as Packages get stolen every day, homeless wonder around the hallways anytime of the day, cars get stolen and broken into. To make things worst, even though you have a parking pass on your car, it gets towed anyways. Its a non-smoking property but Weed smell everywhere. Before they used to get the hallways vacuumed every day, shampooed once a month or every other month, the parking lot used to be power washed once a year, none of that is being done anymore. Everything stinks now. I do not recommend Camden Harbor View apartments to anyone.

Comment: Camden Harbor View is a beautiful complex located downtown Long Beach. It is a beautiful complex in the heart of everything. What makes a beautiful apartment complex to me is the staff and the amenities. I really like the staff here. Some of the workers are Devon, Jeremy, Candice, Michael, and Nemias. They are just wonderful. There is one particular person who I am also grateful for that works here. This person is the assistant manager Timique. Since he has been here he has cleaned up much of the complainants I have read about in the previous reviews.He is always pleasant when I see him. This is a large apartment complex and I can imagine it takes a lot to manage. However, with Timique he manages it like it is a smaller complex. What I mean is that you would never be able to tell how massive this complex is because he makes it look easy by handling any complaint extremely fast and effective. A property is only as good as their management in my opinion. The management at Camden Harbor view is exemplary!This is a beautiful complex with a wonderful staff! Everyone I have encountered is wonderful! If you are looking for a lovely place to live I would advise that you seriously consider Camden Harbor View Apartments!

I have the receipt of payment which they will not accept. I’ve been calling every day for the past week to see if it has changed in their system. Tim in the front office told me it’s not his problem and that I am harassing them by calling every day. I am currently homeless in TX since on my record it shows I owe them money even though I do not. He was very rude and inconsiderate of my situation.

Comment: NOT SAFE. DO NOT RECOMMEND, esp. for people with children! My family and I lived at the Camden for a year and ultimately left in the middle of our lease due to safety concerns. Several cars are broken into every single day, mail is stolen every day, people break into the building late at night (2 AM) to harass/scare residents, the police are there often dealing with crimes, and there were a couple of armed assaults on the property during our stay. There are not enough cameras, and there is no security (the courtesy patrol does nothing). Due to lack of cameras and security no crime is ever solved or resolved which has sadly made the Camden an easy target for reoccurring crime. The crime rates everywhere have increased, but the Camden has done nothing to combat this and keep their residents safe. Its unfortunate because the building itself is beautiful; its just not safe at all.

Comment: Writing this review after having yet another package stolen (no exaggeration, this is the 20th package I’ve had stolen). There is a community chat-board where MANY residents complain about this, yet it is a persistent problem that Camden is aware of and has done close to nothing to solve. Their replies consist of “we have employees that hand-deliver the packages” and “the carriers are not making proper use of the mail boxes”, both solutions of which are no help to us.

Comment: Renters beware:Apartment 3403 (2 Bed, 2 Bath + “Loft”) from December 2017 to March 2018. Gilbert Duenez told us “The loft is the same size of one of the rooms.” This was a blatant lie, the loft is 1/3 the size of the bedroom. My roommate and I were living out of an AirBnB and they didn’t have an open same floor plan apartment for us to see so I guess that’s our fault in trusting Camden.Throughout the year 2 things were clear:1. Camden residents don’t respect their neighbors, dog piss in the halls and elevators on a weekly basis, management doesn’t do anything to fix this issue.2. Camden replaced carpet of apartments at least 2-3 times a month our entire stay.We kept our apartment clean and did not have any pets (dogs,cats, otherwise). When we moved out we were shocked to have a bill to replace the apartments carpet for “heavy urine damage” note: the company they use to manage carpet cleaning and inspection has a terrible reputation.When we asked for proof from Gilbert Duenez he was dismissive and said “a lot of guests have undisclosed pets.” Rather than being amicable we received a letter from a collection agency to settle the remaining bill.Edit: Images shown were taken Day 1 of our lease and as you can see the carpet was FAR from clean and taken care of. Our only assumption is Camden doesnt value their residents, something proven time and time again during our stay, and likes to pass on the costs of their mistakes onto residents trying to leave.

Comment: Ive lived here for about 5 months and it has been an absolute nightmare. I am breaking my lease and going off somewhere where my money is valued. The disturbance from the construction noise has caused me mental and emotional distress. Monday to Friday, from 8am to 5pm for FIVE MONTHS there has been unbearable commotion, noise, machines rumbling, right outside my window. Its all happening during COVID, when were all supposed to stay home and help stop the spread, but cannot stay home where it is supposed to be a place for rest, relaxation and work. Many residents have continuously expressed their concern about the noise, yet Camden keeps on harassing us every single day and doing what any major housing corporation does, ignore your residents but collect their money. Not recommending at all if you have to stay and work from home.

During my living here there has been constant construction in and around the building, trucks making noise on a daily basis, and when the workers finally stop at 5 pm there comes the loud cars and loud mufflers, playing music at 2am and the security not doing anything. If you have to work from home, you wont get any peace and quiet here thats for sure.

Comment: Denisse helped my mother and I out tremendously when we were relocating from the Bay Area to Long Beach and made our transition super easy. Without her, I help things could have been so much more stressful than they were for our household relocation.In fact, Denisse made it possible for us to move to Camden and into a unit that meets our needs given my work from home status. She really made a tremendous effort throughout the leasing process to send us videos, pictures and information we needed to lease our new home sight unseen. Thats how much confidence we had in Denisse and what she did for us.I can say that there are challenges with any community and being located in a metro area, no less Downtown Long Beach. Ive been pleasantly surprised at the thorough communication the staff at Camden has shared with community residents and the efforts they have made publicly to address concerns from the community.I look at over 10 properties before making my decision to call Camden home ... all remote from my home in the Bay Area and Im glad I made the choice I did for my family. Denisse, Michael and the rest of the team here are great to work with.

Comment: Tim in the leasing department is wonderful! He is eager to help, and jumped right in to help solve an issue. We moved here from the Bay Area so it was a relatively large move, and Camden Harbor truly feels like home! We love living so close to the beach, but we love having 2 pools on the property. It’s also pet friendly and our dog LOVES there’s a dog park on the property.

Comment: Pros and Cons to this Place:Ive lived here for 2 years with my wife. Recently had a newborn son.Pro:*Nice apartments. Some have great views.*Big bathrooms*Very responsive maintenance team*Very responsive and polite front office*Low deposit required for move in.*Easy online portal for payments, maintenance requests and bulletin board.*Location is great, near Marina and Pier Ave.*Central A/C*Appliances included*Pet friendly but can be a con depending on preferences.Cons:*No storage or garage*No assigned parking*Not a real community. People keep to themselves and few opportunities to connect with others. Online community is not effective for connecting and theres no social media presence.*Forced buy in (extra $95), into antiquated Charter Cable service and unreliable community internet service. (I had to get my own private internet on top of $95 extra we pay).*Amenities not really available because if construction and renovations (2020)* Lots of smokers (pot & cigs) so deal breaker for families with kids. No smoking policy is not well enforced but its relatively new.* Poorly insulated from street and construction noise on Street side apts.* Restrictive transfer policies, that keep you stuck if you want to transfer to similar unit in more desirable location away from smokers or noise. No consideration for loyalty.*Lax security. Homeless, mentally ill and riff raff occasionally make their way into community property and can be disruptive. Community security guards are not visible or active and car break-ins in garage are not uncommon.

Comment: Besides the great floor plans that Camden offers, the great amenities it has to offer, the ample parking and the convenience of being able to walk to The Pike, numerous restaurants, Shoreline Village and more, I have to say the helpful staff is really a great addition. Especially Timique! He always is friendly and helpful. He has great rapport and provides excellent customer service. He is attentive to any and your needs.

Comment: We have been residents at Camden Harbor View for over three years. It is truly luxury living. The apartments are beautiful with top-of-the-line appliances and amenities and as soon as the renovations are done to the planters, pool and gym, I know it’s gonna look just amazing.The staff is very helpful anytime you need help with a smile on their face. I recommend Camden Harbor View to anyone thinking about moving to Long Beach.

Comment: I cannot, under any circumstances, believe that these positive reviews are from any actual residents who have lived at this dump in the past year. I dont know a single resident who isnt beside themselves with contempt for the horrible living conditions, constant criminal presence, lack of working internet, and ineffective and patronizing staff we deal with every day.Let me say -- I never write reviews like this. Im only trying to warn people before they get fooled into signing a lease... please read on!The first year I lived here, it was actually pretty decent! I could deal with a weekly car break-in and the occasional internet outage, but the conditions have been on a free-fall for the last year with no end in sight. Every aspect of living here has gotten unacceptably awful, and every current resident knows it.All summer they have been completely tearing the place to shreds, ripping out all of the landscaping and foliage that made it look halfway decent, closing the pool for the ENTIRE summer for renovations that current residents will probably never see, and subjecting us to incessant construction noise and horrible smells. To make things even worse, the construction has caused rodents and cockroaches to relocate themselves into residents apartments -- and Camden staff chooses to blame the residents instead of being proactive.There is no functioning security whatsoever (lol courtesy security patrol) and cars are broken into nightly in our garage. Homeless, mentally ill, and drug addicted people are passed out all over the outsides, and yes, the INSIDES of our buildings with no repercussions. How is such a lack of security acceptable in a downtown urban environment???Residents are also forced into paying for a cable and internet package that has continued to degrade in quality since I moved in to the point where it is no longer usable, causing residents to have to double-pay for a separate service that works. When we contact Camden about this issue, their only response is for us to call Spectrum and sit on the phone for hours with them to get no solution because WE DONT HAVE INDIVIDUAL CONNECTION ISSUES, IT IS A COMMUNITY-WIDE ISSUE!!!Oh... and then there is the staff. Have a problem with any of the above-mentioned issues? Well you better get ready to go f--- yourself, because that is basically how the staff responds to everything. No help, no suggestion of solutions, nothing -- they just blame residents for everything or ignore you entirely.If you want to check this place out, do yourself a favor and ask an ACTUAL resident what they think while you are in the area... you will not be getting any 4 and 5 star reviews, I can promise you that much.

Comment: I was a tenant at Camden for over two years, when first getting into the apartments my uhaul with my female products was broken into and I lost the items to get ready. One of the Staff members let me use her facial wash and hair utensils that day and keep them. Since then staying Camden had always been great about answering my needs and then some, in fact most days I put in a service order the service team is there same day.There was an incident where I had a bad roommate and had to get a restraining order, and if Tracy and Summer weren’t there to help I don’t think I would have felt as safe or taken’ care of. Not to mention the safety of my apartment. Gilbert is another honorable mention as there have been times he had to hound me for information (I work graves and usually sleep all day) but even then he was always kind to me in elevators and any questions or help I needed he was always there.Always a great staff, and always great additional assistance when I’ve needed it. If I didn’t need more space for my fiancé to move into with me, I probably would have stayed another couple years.

Comment: I lived at Camden for over a year and loved it. I have since had to move due to roommate changes but I definitely miss living there. Our move in/out process was such a breeze. Gilbert was the employee who helped us and really made it go smooth, even going above and beyond by offering us boxes and storage recommendations, and donation locations. This place will always be my favorite.

Comment: Cool place to live with many perks such as pools and workout facilities. It would be perfect if the wifi worked. It switches on and off all day long. When it works, its fast- but then it wont work at all. Very hard to get work done or enjoy streaming. seems it wont be fixed in the foreseeable future. Also there is a nearly constant odor of urine outside.

Comment: Living here has been an amazing relief. For it being in the downtown area the prices are reasonable and Camden offers a lot for the residents. If something needs repairing in your apartment you simply submit a service request and someone always comes ASAP. The maintenance people are always quick, efficient, and very friendly.The staff here is very kind hearted. My family and I had a recent family tragedy and Gilbert was able to help us tremendously. He is very professional, gets it done, and has a huge heart for helping the residents. We are very grateful for all of his help. It is truly difficult to match his service anywhere else.

Comment: The building is newer so you won’t have to deal with problems commonly encountered at old apartment buildings such as rodents/bugs etc. As far as the actual apartment units go everything is nice. Unfortunately, your car will most likely be broken into in the gated parking garage. When you call lb pd, they will tell you to advocate with management for more cameras and better security. Don’t think it won’t happen to you... it will. It has happened to almost everyone on my floor. Just know if you move here you can never even for 2 minutes leave anything in the car you do not want stolen. My only qualm with Camden’s is not being forewarned about this problem. Yes, your car can be broken into anywhere at anytime, but the probability is much higher at Camden’s because whoever is doing it keeps getting away with it. If the situation improves/parking garage is made to be safer, I will update this review.

Comment: I recently reported what seems like an innocent leak in my bathroom floor. I reported it when I discovered the carpet on my bedroom closet was wet. I called and IMMEDIATELY Feliciano and his Team came to my apartment and quickly and efficiently discovered it was a serious situation that required major work. I was so impressed with how diligent and thorough his Team was at assessing the problem and immediately fixing it. Much work to dry out of carpet, floor, walls as well as fixing what was causing the leak. What I appreciated most was the care they took to be certain I was comfortable with the status on what was happening, when it was happening and how long it would take. My bedroom carpet was replaced, the rest of the bedroom carpet shampooed and Feliciano himself, made sure my bathroom floor was spotless when all the work was done. It required coordination with support teams that was finished flawlessly. We are so fortunate to have such dynamic team members here at Camden who take their work so conscientiously. Thank you Feliciano and Camden Harborview.

Comment: I have been a resident at Camden Harbor View for 9 ½ years. I have had assistance from many of the staff over the years, and all were (and still are) great at doing their job. The difference between them and Gilbert is that while they all do a great job, sometimes you feel that you are just a Camden Harbor View resident/tenant.I believe that Gilbert actually goes above and beyond when assisting Camden residents. He has been genuinely sympathetic when hearing there was a recent loss in my family. He has been there with kind words of encouragement when we were dealing with a financial issue.When you speak to him to about any issues you may be experiencing, he is empathetic to your unique situation. He has never been too busy to see me, or follow up with a call on an item we have discussed. I can’t speak for all of the Camden residents, but Gilbert has always treated me not just as a tenant, but as real person. Thank you Gilbert. You are the best!

Comment: I stayed in one of these apartments while I attended a fat camp held in the complex. I found the apartment to have many flaws and it was obvious that they were all slapped together on the cheap. Weird stuff like not having hot water in the kitchen unless it was also running in the bathroom is only one example. As a sub-leaser for two weeks there was no way to report oddities to anyone who could do anything.

Comment: After working through broken elevators, fire alarms, parking thefts, and many other sorry for the inconvenience items I left Camden Harbor View for a more agreeable situation. Camden did not do an exit walk though, with me, and charged over $900 to clean the unit (I rented it 11 months and it was empty and clean). I disagreed with the amount and no-one could help, then they turned it over to collections. They said they automatically do that after 30 days)..I let the office staff know i would be providing this feedback via Yelp, your website and other public feedback sites. The Camden Harbor View leasing representative (who would not disclose her name) let me know I was free to provide whatever feedback, wherever I wanted. Will never consider Camden again and will warn anyone that does. Consistent feedback for Harbor View is great location, bad management. This is an example of my experience....

Comment: 2nd time in a couple months that a tenants door has been physically bashed down by Long Beach Police Officers. Door hasn’t been fixed and tenants remain in apartment. When asked when door would be fixed was told. They are working through the process that the law allows them to take. Door has been bashed in for over a week now and residents have not been communicated to from a safety regards about the incident. There are most definitely better places to live in LB and you might even save some money.

Comment: We find out the day of our move in that we need a cashiers check, not a personal check for our monthly rental fee.Also we could of paid this with sending the check a week in advance.This whole misunderstanding is because of a lack of communication from our leasing consultant Kelli R.Really how much time and effort would it take to notify us ahead of time.After we drive all day from Northern California with our pet in the car, and find out we cannot receive our apartment key. Then we have to find a hotel with our pet at the last minute till we can clear this mess up monday morning.Thank you Camden Harbor View for the warm welcome.2016After living here for almost two years we have really enjoyed living here at Camden Harbor View. Living in the heart of downtown Long Beach we are walking distance to a wide variety of entertainment. There is also the few bad side effects of some people who try to ruin your surroundings.We also like to give thanks to the crew at CHV, they have always been there to bring a smile to us. The maintenance team who are there to repair any small problems in our building have been great and accommodating. Timique Carter, Gilbert Duenez, and Lori Thode have been so wonderful to help us in any way.2018

Comment: This is the most overrated apartment building in Long Beach. Yes its a new construction with a few cool restaurants on the ground floor. But when you walk up to the building all you smell is dog poop and urine. There are a bajillion bums crawling around the building and especially the abondoned building right next to it.Not to mention that the apartments are supremely small and over priced. The parking spaces are snug and there are car break-ins regularly...I give it 2 stars because of its proximity to nightlife, happy hours and restaurants.

The entire staff is always very friendly and willing to help in any way.......as if you lock yourself out of your apartment (yep, I did that already :))

Comment: We have been living here for over a year and so far it has been amazing. We love the location, its perfect for kids, and close to everything. We love walking to the Pike or to downtown. The office staff is amazing and always greets you with a smile. They are always there for you whether you need some assistance or even little things like paper for printer. They go out of their way to help us especially Brooke Lorenz. She is always there to answer any questions with a smile. Good job Camden Staff. You guys Rock!!

Comment: I have truly enjoyed living at Camden. The office staff is always very accommodating and easy to work with. The same goes for the maintenance team. I see them working so hard and with a big smile. They always say hello and make sure youre having a good day.I enjoy being able to reserve the community amenities online, pay rent, and other thing such as the community message board.The location is also something that cannot be forgotten about. The Pike is directly behind the community and Pine Ave. on the opposite end. Either way, youre in the best spot in Long Beach.Thank you Camden for making this my place to call home.

Comment: Horrifying experience locked into the garage after being in and out of the apartment all day. Waited on hold for 10 minutes to then wait for a security guard to let me off the floor. Rich from security escorted me to the store for some dinner. Thanks Rich.

Comment: We wont be renewing our lease. With all of the water issues and the reluctance to handle the situation quickly and properly, on Camdens behalf from a monetary customer service standpoint, we dont see the value and feel comfort that potential future utilitiy outages, or any other inconveniences to necessities/amenities we pay for, will be handled with care in putting the customer first.Secondly, the amount of money they are asking for in this lease is not comparable to other apartments in the area and we will not take the risk as its not worth it and is overpriced.We did, however, enjoy the previous two leasing terms we lived here.

Comment: Great place to live if you want your cars broken into every other week.. Management does not care they just want your rent check on the first. Look for safer places to live.

Comment: I was working in the cyber lounge a few days ago and Gilbert walked in and asked me if I was ok and asked if I wanted the door closed. I had it opened because the AC was not working and it was warm in the room. He was quick to alologize and he informed he would take down this on formation and make sure to ask for service on the AC. I returned to the cyber lounge a couple days later and the AC was working wonderfully! Today I came to the office looking for a lost USB and a friendly resident had turned it in. Come November it will be 3 years since I have lived here. Thank you Camden.

Comment: I have been living at Camden Harbor View since 2/14/14 and I do love my apartment 💓 We have an amazing view of the Queen Mary here on the 7th floor. The Sunrises & Sunsets will take your breath away...We have had countless Fireworks shows (including the day we moved in 🎆), very cool fly overs (randomly) fighter jets, military choppers, GoodYear blimp and the infamous GhettoBird (not very often w that though) 🚁Awesome amenities throughout the community including an old skool Ms. PacMan arcade game & pinball machine in one of the chill rooms along w pool table, TV wall and lounging furniture; theres also a Wi-Fi lounge with multiple computers (both Mac and PC), 2 pools and a lot more!The maintenance staff is always quick, friendly and respectful. The office drones do their jobs with a smile and enthusiasm, I do like them I just hate the robotic, non emotion responses they sometimes have to resident posts/complaints on the social resident site.The one thing that really has been out of control lately is the water situation in the highrises, too many days w/out water, short emergency NO WATER notices. And the smell in the highrises also NEEDS to be addressed (trash smell).

Comment: I am extremely disappointed due to my recent experiences with the Camden Harbor View. There is a HUGE problem occurring in the complex due to the lack of mailboxes for packages.I and another resident had 3 packages stolen this week. My package was worth $70 and I am now having to submit a crime complaint and have back and forth communication with the site I bought it from, in the hopes of being refunded.I sincerely hope the Camden changes its policy and takes responsibility for lost packages, as it is otherwise a wonderful complex. I will update this review if any changes occur.

Comment: Camden Harbor View is ideal for me because of the high level of service I receive. I lived here a couple years ago, moved overseas, and chose Camden again when it was time to return home. The entire staff is always professional. James, in particular, has been very helpful in making my experience here comfortable. I even recommended Camden to a friend of mine so he and his family now enjoy living here as well!

Comment: I just moved in August 2015 and I LOVE IT here!!!! The staff is so helpful, and complex is always clean! There are so many things to do in the surrounding area that I dont need to go far for a great dinner or a fun night out. I also really appreciate the security that I see monitoring the parking structure.

Comment: With my military background and living all over the country I would honestly have to say that Camden is one of my top favorites. The employees have always welcomed me with a smile and have gone that extra mile with their customer service, and its nice knowing there is 24/7 security on the premise. The only thing I would change about Harbor View is if they allowed residents to purchase a unit here, because I would!

Comment: Ive been living here since April 2014 and loved it. The office staff are really helpful in every way they can. Having someone visit you in your apartment has never been easy since they have an online parking permit request. I will always recommend anyone to come check out this apartment complex.

Comment: We love living here! its close to everything near the water in Long Beach either a short walk or bike ride. Its bit expensive but what you get for the price makes it worth it, especially the guaranteed parking and security. The staff are super friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend living here!

Comment: With all the older buildings in Downtown Long Beach, Camden Harbor View is a breath of fresh air. The property is modern looking and well maintained. The location is perfect. Its easy access to the 710 freeway and walking distance to the Pike, Downtown Long Beach, and the actual beach! Ive lived here for almost 2 years now and am glad I made that decision. The apartment units are top notch with stainless steel appliances, roman tubs and washer and dryer in the unit which is a rarity in Southern California. Also a rarity in Downtown is parking which Camden Harbor View has an abundance of, and its covered!. On top of all that, the rent is quite reasonable which gives this property a 5 star.

Comment: I love living here! I love my dark hardwood floors and white cabinets :) This place is walking distance to the pike, downtown restaurants and beach which makes for easy weekend plans and scenic walks with my little dog :) The office is quick to respond to concerns and maintenance requests. Its quiet and safe. And I also feel I should mention that it is walking distance to a coffee shop (in the complex!)- Brew Haus, which has great coffee. I also noticed a starbucks in the works across the street... LOVING downtown Long Beach!

Comment: Camden Harbor View is a great place to live. The buildings are pretty new, and the residents are nice. The leasing office staff is very helpful and there are get-togethers throughout the year that are pretty fun. The location is perfect as its close to everything yet you dont have to deal with rowdy people all the time.

Comment: I have lived here for over a year and I love it! The staff is more than accommodating and feel like a family! They remember you and your family and do as much as they can to help when needed. The community is well kept and well worth the money. I was pretty surprised by the cost at first, but when comparing properties in the area, I found many places that cost way more and come with fewer amenities. You cant put a price on safe parking and laundry in-unit! Those are very hard to come by in Long Beach! The maintenance staff is also very helpful and prompt! I believe the comfort and security is well worth the price!

Comment: Harbor View has to be one of the best upscale apartment buildings in Downtown. The apartments include stainless steel appliances, a full size washer and dryer and parking! Come on now! That is an amazing package to have come with your apartment! The location of the building cannot be in a better location. Transportation, eateries, entertainment, and shopping all walking distance. I want to extend my satisfaction to the office members because they have always been so generous and helpful. They are open every day so if you need anything, they are there. Thanks for making this such a great place to live Camden.

Comment: Harbor view? More like a parking structure and hotel view honestly but the little you do see is nice. Place is clean, sometimes you have angry bitter neighbors but thats everywhere... its quiet but you will hear car alarms all night going off from parking lot and Im on 4th floor. Place has banquets room, theater and gym.

Comment: Ive been living at Camden for almost 2 years and my experience has been nothing short of frustrating and disappointing. Here are some key issues I have faced:1. Unresponsive ManagementThey never answer the phone when they see my caller ID. Its extremely difficult to get in touch with anyone, and my concerns are often ignored.2. Maintenance IssuesMy refrigerator has been leaking for months and is falling apart. Despite being promised a new one, it was given to another resident. They even tried to give me a used one from another unit, which is unacceptable considering the roach problem here.3. Rude Property ManagerThe property manager is incredibly rude and dismissive of my concerns. He once told me that handling complaints is for the women and ignored me during a scheduled appointment to chat with coworkers.4. Noise and Security ProblemsIve made numerous complaints about my noisy upstairs neighbors, which have been completely disregarded. This led to my kids bikes being stolen off our balcony.5. Pest Control NegligenceI was assured that my unit would be sprayed on 6/24/24 between 12 pm and 1 pm. By 2 pm, no one had arrived, and despite multiple follow-ups, no one showed up. We had emptied all our cabinets, leaving our food and supplies scattered around the living room, yet they didnt even have the decency to inform us that no one was coming.6. Rent Increase Without UpgradesDuring my lease renewal, the rent was increased. When I inquired about any potential upgrades to justify this increase, I was bluntly told that I would have to handle any improvements myself. This is unacceptable given the already poor living conditions.Every negative review you read about this place is completely accurate. From the outside, the complex looks nice, but everything that glitters isnt gold. The only reason I tolerate it is because it’s convenient to my job and school. Once I graduate from nursing school, I plan to find a better place. However, when I am here, it’s awful. The noise from the neighbors is so bad that I have to turn up my music just to drown it out. This place feels more like the projects than a proper apartment complex.I hope this review helps potential residents think twice before moving in. The management needs to seriously improve their responsiveness, professionalism, and overall care for their residents.
