Gables Woodley Park: HORRIBLE PLACE TO LIVE! (Not Recommending)

2008-07-20T00:54:36-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Since this year, there's already 7 power failures. This is far too ridiculous for a new apartment. Management does not care! Poor and slow maintenance. ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: I don't enjoy living here (Not Recommending)

2008-06-16T13:50:47-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The apartments are very expensive, yet basic, and feel they are lacking in amenities. Things are not generally restocked promptly when they run out. Just assume you will be waiting several weeks for the cups in the gym to be restocked or the doggie poop bags to be restocked in ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: great place to live (Recommending!)

2008-05-07T09:46:35-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I lived in the Gables Woodley Park for three years and was very happy with the building. It was extremely safe and it was great to have one hotel across the street and another one next door. This made the area more lively, safe (as people were always around) and ...

Gables Woodley Park: They make it easy! (Recommending!)

2008-03-28T19:52:28-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Coming from suburbs in the south, I wanted a big, quiet, pet-friendly apartment with carpet and a washer-dryer. And it had to have convenient parking. And feel safe. And be near the metro. And be near restaurants. And have excellent maintenance. Oh, yeah, a gym would be nice too. Well, ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: Nice, but overpriced and RUDE management (Not Recommending)

2007-03-31T16:27:33-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The front desk staff is sweet, sweet, sweet. So this review should not extend to them. But the property manager and his sidekick are the worst! They are sweet as sugar when you move you and if they run into while showing an apartment to someone else but once you ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: management is arrogant (Not Recommending)

2007-01-02T16:02:11-06:00

From -Anonymous-: If you move here, be sure to gease the asst. magr's hands as he controls eveything in the building including everyone who gets hired! Got complaints? Get on the witing list. The arrogance of the management staff is breathtaking. They act like they own the place and you have no ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: Absolutely dreadful. (Not Recommending)

2006-04-29T11:41:09-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I live on the side with the school...and it's never quiet. NEVER. The kids play there AFTER hours...and the parents wait until LATE to pick them up! Think you can close your windows and drown out the sound??? Think again! Constant noise. Also, Gables management is THE WORST in DC. ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: Safe Transition from the South (Recommending!)

2006-04-19T19:43:04-06:00

From -Anonymous-: When we signed our lease, the building was known as the Henry Adams House, and the staff was professional and very kind. I have fond memories of them. Once Gables purchased the building, I did notice a regression in the quality of the staff.

We looked at several buildings in NW ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: Awful service (Not Recommending)

2006-01-23T19:02:05-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Neither the management nor the staff, and certainly not the corporation give a damn about the tenants!!! ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: poor maintenance for the $$ (Not Recommending)

Gables Woodley Park: Really bad service and screaming children. (Not Recommending)

2005-09-23T21:12:36-06:00

From -Anonymous-: If you move here, you will NEVER see anyone in the rental office after you sign on that dotted line. The turnover of staff is a joke (that should tell you something about the quality of the company) and, basically, no one gives a damn about tenants. If you insist ...

Gables Woodley Park: Management does not care about residents' views. (Recommending!)

2005-09-22T14:14:06-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Overall, I have liked living in the Gables. The management, however, does not care about residents' views. The complex has (or I should say "HAD") a very nice couryard/barbecue area with a beautiful recreation room. Someone in management apparently decided this would be a good area for the leasing office. ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: Naw. Definitely NOT worth it. (Not Recommending)

2005-08-04T23:56:05-06:00

From -Anonymous-: What you get is NOT directly proportional to the insanely high rent you will pay at this hell hole. BTW, disregard the post directly beneath me. It's from Gables leasing office...and I know who wrote it. Pitiful. If you move here, you will here the little darlings in the grade ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: Yes, over priced - but worth it. (Recommending!)

2005-07-26T16:10:21-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I've lived here for a full year and I love it. They petsit for me. If I think I left my stove on - they'll check it for me while I'm at work. They cater to you and make life easy. They're clean. Responsive. Feed you in the morning with ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: Over-priced and over-hyped by staff (Not Recommending)

2005-06-08T20:45:30-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Look elsewhere. You'll get lots of lip service and promises that never come through. Think twice after you speak with them. They'll promise you anything to get the booking. If you are looking for a building that will take care of its tenants keep looking! They don't care and don't ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: Gables: Expect a lot of spin and nothing else. (Not Recommending)

2004-12-01T11:31:18-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Moved in when L-Cor was the owner. Gables purchased the property and it's been a disappointment ever since. Rents have increased tremendously but service has significantly declined to almost non-existent. Actually, the service you are guaranteed to receive is a lot of lip-service. Promoted as a luxury apartment building, it's ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: As good as you'll get in NW (Recommending!)

2004-11-16T21:49:56-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I wanted to live in NW and searched many apartments along Conn Ave. I think the Gables was the best on offer. While the price is pretty expensive, you get what you pay for. The apartments are like brand new, with washer/dryer and self controlled, central (not window box) air ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: Horrible Management, 1st floor floods, very unprofessional. (Not Recommending)

2004-10-12T12:35:33-06:00

From -Anonymous-: How many managers have gone through this place in less then a year?
I had to deal with a Regional named Colleen who was so rude that I almost hung up on her, that was after she finally returned my call a week 1/2 later after I complained to the ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: Like living in the nicest hotel you ever stayed in (Recommending!)

2004-09-14T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: This place is nicer than anywhere you will ever live (though believe me, you're paying for it!) Seriously-if you have a maintenance request (we haven't had very many) they will be up here within hours. There is a free breakfast (bagels and pastries) every morning and fresh-baked cookies every afternoon. ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: great building!! (Recommending!)

2004-07-23T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The other poster is right, rent is high, but I think it is worth it. The building is very quiet and clean even though dogs and cats are allowed. The lease says that people will be evicted for noise violations - our kind of place.

Each apartment has its own ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables Woodley Park: A nice place to live (Recommending!)

2004-03-29T00:00:00-06:00

From cuuplate: I lived here for a year. It was nice. They give you cookies and donuts and bagels. The rent is high enough! The parking garage spaces are small, but there were always plenty of them.

The staff is friendly and helpful.

Great location. Nice apartments.

The only downside is the price. ... [click to read full apartment review]
