The Exchange at Van Dorn
  (formerly Metropolitan at Alexandria)

I BEG of you....Save your money & time!!!!!!! From: -Anonymous- Date posted: 6/16/2004 Years at this apartment: 2004 - 2004   This place is soooooo not worth the money & dealing with the ridiculous management. Don't be fooled by all the pretty fixtures. You will be miserable here. It is overpriced, sits right behind a metro rail (extremely noisey), & employs some of the most arrogant & useless staff I have ever had to deal with. My apartment was brand new & there was a huge hole where the medicine cabinet sits in the bathroom. It took weeks for someone to fix it. The cable outlet in my room doesn't work because of the shoty construction (problem is inside the walls & comcast even laughed at how ridiculous that was). There is still a leak underneath my kitchen sink, the bathtub is pulling away from the wall & managment could give a damn!!! My air conditioning broke & mangement was arguing with me over the phone about the cause. If you ever get locked out, say a prayer. They never answer the page & could care less. At the end of my lease I am GONE!!!!!!! Please, save your money & look somewhere else. You will be so much happier.
