Overview of Yugo Auburn North
Yugo Auburn North is a student housing property located in Auburn, Alabama. It offers ensuite rooms and 4-bedroom apartments (likely shared living with private bedrooms). The monthly rent ranges from $629 to $1,009 — all prices are indicative — confirm with the operator. The property is available from 15 August 2026. On-site facilities include a gym and laundry room. Based on 311 Google reviews, the property has an average rating of 3.1 out of 5.
Who This Residence Suits
Yugo Auburn North works well for students who want to stay within the lower end of the city’s rental market. The starting price of $629 matches the city’s from-price (lowest available among the three student properties in Auburn). If your priority is keeping rent low and you are open to sharing a flat with three other people, the 4-bedroom option could be a cost-effective choice.
The property includes a variety of amenities that residents have highlighted: a beach volleyball court, basketball court, swimming pool, pool table, and a gym. If you enjoy social and recreational activities without leaving the building, this is a plus. The management staff has been described by some residents as helpful — one Google reviewer, ariana mercedes, wrote:
“From the very first apartment showing to the day I moved in, the property manager truly made the whole experience smooth and welcoming. She was incredibly kind, patient, and took the time to answer every question without ever making me feel rushed. You can tell she genuinely cares about the people living here and wants”
Another reviewer, Siedyria, gave 4 stars and said:
“The staff was awesome! The upgraded suites looked fabulous! I enjoyed the fact that they had so many amenities (beach volleyball, basketball court, pool, pool table, gym, and more! I did not give it 5 stars due to it needing improvement in the overall exterior.”
If you value a responsive and friendly management team and are less concerned about the exterior appearance, this residence could meet your needs.
Who This Residence Does Not Suit
This property may not be suitable if you expect a move‑in ready, clean apartment. One 5-star rating (which appears to be a rating error given the negative content) came from Kelly Schmidt:
“The pictures show it all complete filth. Spent 7 hrs cleaning just to move in, missing furniture still, deck boards are rotten and almost fell through them. Called numerous times and went by the clubhouse with closed signs, unanswered calls and when I was able to leave a voicemail never received a return call. Still ha”
The reviewer described a significant cleanliness issue, missing furniture, and poor maintenance on the deck. They also reported difficulty reaching the management. While other reviews are positive, this experience suggests inconsistency in property condition and customer service. If you have zero tolerance for such problems or need immediate responses to maintenance issues, you should weigh the risk.
Additionally, the exterior condition has been noted as needing improvement (Siedyria’s review). If you want a polished, modern look from the outside, this may not be the best fit.
What Residents Actually Say
We have three Google reviews that show a split between positive and negative experiences.
- Positive experience (move‑in and staff): ariana mercedes praised the property manager for making the process smooth and welcoming. The reviewer highlighted the manager’s kindness and patience.
- Positive experience (amenities): Siedyria appreciated the wide range of amenities and said the upgraded suites looked “fabulous”. The main criticism was the exterior condition.
- Negative experience (condition and service): Kelly Schmidt reported the apartment was filthy on move‑in, missing furniture, and had rotten deck boards. Attempts to contact management were unsuccessful.
Because the property has only 311 reviews and a 3.1 average, the negative comment is not an outlier — some residents clearly had a difficult experience. When considering this property, request a current unit tour (not just model rooms) and ask about maintenance response times.
Price Positioning and Value
The city’s starting price for student housing is $629, and Yugo Auburn North’s cheapest unit is exactly that. For a 4‑bedroom apartment, that is a competitive entry point. However, the price range extends to $1,009, likely for ensuite rooms or larger floor plans. That means the property covers both low‑budget and mid‑range options.
Compared to the other two student properties in Auburn (3 total), this one offers the lowest starting price. But remember: all prices are indicative — confirm with the operator as rates may change. For example, special offers or lease terms could affect the final cost.

Room-Type Guidance
Two unit types are available:
- Ensuite: Private bedroom with private bathroom. Typically more expensive. Likely accounts for the upper portion of the price range ($1,000+).
- 4b (4‑bedroom apartment): Share a kitchen, living area, and possibly bathrooms with three other housemates. Each bedroom is private. This option starts at the lower price of $629.
If you are looking for the lowest rent, choose a 4‑bedroom. If you prefer more privacy and are willing to pay a premium, go for an ensuite. The data does not specify whether the 4‑bedroom units are ensuite within the apartment (each room with its own bathroom) or share facilities. Verify with the operator.
Booking Timing
The property is available from 15 August 2026. Auburn’s academic calendar typically starts in late August or early September, so that date aligns with move‑in for the fall semester. Because the property has only 3 student housing options in the city, demand may be high, especially for the cheapest rooms. Consider booking as early as possible — but only after you have confirmed the current condition of the unit. Given the mixed reviews, a last‑minute booking could leave you with limited choices and potentially unwelcome surprises.
