Good Apartments Overall - We have lived here for several years, and I have to say that if you're looking for the perfect place to live, well, it doesn't exist. But, I do recommend Huntington Gateway as a good place to start. We actually chose HG based on a whirlwind tour and not knowing anything about the area when we moved up here, but it has served us well. First, the good stuff: The ...Full review of Huntington Gateway

Only if you don't require parking and work 9-5 - This is an attractive complex with nice units. However, if you require storage, parking or work hours that are not 9-5, you may have some issues. Parking availability varies by units and visitors parking is not readily available as most residents permanently park their cars in visitors spots (leaving their designated spots open) in order to have a location closer to their unit. There ...Full review of Pointe at Park Center

THEFTS AND BREAK INS - I am an owner living in building 4850. I have been here for 3 years and I have progressively seen this propery lose it's appeal. Today, 1 April 2009, I entered my parking garage to head for work and I noticed that the car next to mine was vandalized. The driver-side window was broken out and laying next to the car. The interior was torn through and the hood was open with engine hoses ...Full review of The Exchange at Van Dorn

A Great Community To Live In - My wife and I have lived here for 2 years now. We feel like we found the best apartment community to live at in the city of Alexandria at our price point. Management responds right away to all our maintenance requests. The staff is so friendly and caring that we have a good experience here, and they have become our friends too. Noise is not an issue living here. Gym is clean and not too ...Full review of Windsor at Arbors

Great little place to live except...... - I think overall the Calvert is a great little place to live. The building itself has character some people like it some don't. I happen to like older buildings and although it does have its fair share of problems--water being shut off, small elevators, and the occassional cockroach in the basement, overall I think its great for the money and location. The apartments are quite ...Full review of Calvert Apartments

Still Happy after one year - We move here in March 2008. Compared to where we used to live, this place is a dream. Our courtyard is absolutely charming and even as I type, I'm looking out over our lovely azaleas. Yes, it's on the smallish side, but my husband and I opted for the two bedroom vs 3 bedroom and so our master bedroom is very spacious. We also have turned the basement into a den. The ...Full review of Brookville Townhomes

Great Place - I have lived here for the past 6 months, and it has been wonderful. The location is great as it is less than a mile for the metro. However, there is an executive shuttle in the mornings and afternoons which takes you from the complex to the metro station if you don't want to walk or take the bus which is very nice to have. The maintenance staff is the best I have ever had in an ...Full review of Park Place at Van Dorn

Bad! - They wont fix anything. Lived last summer without air conditioning. This summer they replaced ONE window unit and the guy asked, Which room do you want air conditioning in?"! They "think" they can replace the other window unit next summer. Have paid over $300 dollars in towing fees, for vehicles with parking stickers! I like the location, but thats it. Oh yea, dont ...Full review of Hunting Point on the Potomac

Good Deal for the Price - These are my thoughts: Cost - I pay a decent amount with no utilities. In this area, that's a steal. I love it. Cleanliness - I have yet to see one cockroach, rodent, etc. I believe some of this is due to your neighbors and how clean they keep their apartment. Mine are great, I've never had an issue. I also live higher up, that could also be part of it. Just wanted ...Full review of Aspen House

It's okay, but it takes patience - All I will say is that after a few years, the place is okay, but I am still considering buying a condo, or looking for a new place. The rent increase is really unnecessary considering that service has gone down ever since THAT GIRL took over managing the place. Yes, the hallways do smell, mostly because you have a lot of people cooking ethnic foods (at least on my floor) and ...Full review of London Park Towers
