Great location, OK apartments, BAD management
From: -Anonymous-Date posted: 5/10/2006
Years at this apartment: 2004 - 2006
We still live here and love our apartment, even though the rent could be better. The location is great, views of DC are lovely, and it's sucha quiet neighborhood. But management is the worst; the staff (save maintenance) is rude and frequently unresponsive, the plumbing sucked all of last year, AC keeps breaking down during the summer, and I've watched from my balcony as someone got towed from their above-ground garage space.
Plumbing was a nightmare last year. Got a two-bdrm with 2.5 baths, but we were forced to use the den's 1/2 bath because our toilets kept flooding the apartment below and we just didn't want to tick off the 2 tempramental toilets. We got flooded once through our ceiling too. Instead of springing for a licensed plumber with all the rent we pay, they instead sent out maintenance who obviously couldn't do much.
And management...sigh. The rudest I've ever come across. There are, of course, two older ladies who are simply angelic, but they're evening staff mostly. The regular day staff (including a night-shift lady who's a resident) is horrible.
Also, there's just one assigned space per apartment and they wait-list you for a space you rent, but we've been on that list for almost 2 years now.
Well, our apartment is nice and spacious, I love our balcony and hanging out on the roof near the pool, but--and I hate to say it cos I love living in Arlington--if you could find some other high-rise with comparable features but better management, go there instead.
