I lived in this apartment complex for 2 years before new management took over in 2017. After the transition, the new management put financial and psychological pressure on the previous residents and forced many of them out of their apartments in order to make surface-level changes to the complex and hike the rent up by 500 a month. I do not begrudge them the right to remain competitive in the Davis rental market. What I do condemn is the way in which they continuously showed blatant disregard for the residents they were forcing to leave. They had a work crew in and out of my apartment for the entire month of July. The entire fiasco ended up costing me the equivalent of 250 in lost apartment access and electricity costs (the crew needed to have the apartment door open and plug in power tools). I couldn't use my shower for two days. They compensated me 50. Though the new management replaced the cabinets, floors, appliances (in some units), built little fences, added a fitness room, and painted the outside of the apartments green, they made these changes at the expense of other more pressing concerns. I know from a member of the crew working in my apartment, that a few of the units have rodent problems. I urge you, if you have another choice for housing in Davis, please do not move in to Cottages on Fifth. The management has no incentive to care about the well being of their residents, and they will try to take as much of your money as they can. These apartments may look attractive, but they are not worth the price that the management is asking. I now live in a complex I enjoy much more. The management is responsive, kind, and welcoming. The apartments are well built and well kept. I pay roughly the same amount. It is possible to find a better home in Davis. Please do not give Cottages on Fifth your money.

I am hoping to attend UC Davis and was searching for apartments in the area, I toured cottages on 5th and absolutely fell in love with the landscaping and beautiful apartments. A quaint escape and open area compared to a lot of the other stuffy and unfriendly apartments I have toured in the Davis area. The apartments finishes are great and super close to downtown. I toured with Jordan and she was so sweet and accommodating.
Did not enjoy my stay here and would not recommend. Yes it’s cheaper than a lot of apartments (because it’s so far from campus) but you get what you pay for. -Bug infested: literally saw atleast one bug in the unit either every day or every other day for the entire year I stayed here -management is terrible: she never answers the phone, the office wasn’t open when it was supossed to be and she only gave back 160 out of 1000 deposit -sudden WiFi shut down: in a college town this is unacceptable. Went without WiFi for a week without any alternative (no Ethernet cable or even a notice to tenets regarding the issue) -was being overcharged 50 a month for pge because of the old appliances (we found out after we qualified for a free inspection through pge)
