2008-04-27T21:24:17-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I moved into the Gables at the Terrace because it's one of the few apartment complexes in Austin that allows aggressive breed dogs.

2006-10-22T15:51:02-06:00

From nothappygables: The first year I lived here, every thing was pretty much great- close to the UT campus (not on the bus route- annoying) and close to the mall.

Gables at the Terrace: Noise problem (Not Recommending)

2006-05-17T16:58:57-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I agree with others that insulation in this building is attrocious. I hear my neighbors conversations and the lyrics of any music they may play.

2006-05-06T17:42:02-06:00

2006-04-10T18:43:21-06:00

From agg2006: We've lived here for almost a year and can't wait to leave. There is no space anywhere. Parking is non-existent. And to get even one assigned spot you have to pay $45 per month extra.

Gables at the Terrace: Bad and Good. (Recommending!)

2006-01-21T00:28:16-06:00

From bleedburntorange: The parking is really bad. If you get home after 8 or 9, you'll be parking really far from your building. And when I came to tour the property, the staff specifically told me there was a ton of open parking. That's true during the day, when everyone is at ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables at the Terrace: Great Place to Live! (Recommending!)

2005-08-21T13:45:47-06:00

2005-01-18T15:05:46-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I have just come across this and read about my apartment community and could not disagree more.

Gables at the Terrace: Do not rent here. (Not Recommending)

2004-12-15T11:32:49-06:00

From HatetheGables: When I lived at the Gables, the maintenance staff always came in when I wasn't home. It was terrible. There was no warning at all. There is no parking! You cannot find a space.

Gables at the Terrace: Good location is about it. (Not Recommending)

2004-09-21T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I have lived in this complex for years and am finally moving out. Would I recommend it? In a word, no. It does have quick access to downtown, Westlake and Barton Creek Mall, but location is the only benefit. The Gables REIT is unashamedly all about making money from you. ...

Gables at the Terrace: Subpar and overprised (Not Recommending)

2004-03-05T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I agree w/ the other comments. Staff and managers are unresponsive and rude. The mgmt frequently enters the units (at least once a month) for various repairs and inspections which do not seem necessary. They are slow to fix things and need to be reminded multiple times. They have damaged ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables at the Terrace: Way too expensive for what you get (Not Recommending)

2004-02-03T00:00:00-06:00

From wellalrightythen: I lived there for three years and was generally not very happy there. The traffic noise from Mopac was so loud that I could never open my windows or balcony door, and the sound of the semi-trucks at night really bothered me while I tried to sleep. I also lived ...

Gables at the Terrace: Overpriced and Inflexible (Not Recommending)

2003-07-31T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: Gables admits to being more concerned with volume of tenants than providing for the consumers who actually live and pay rent at their property. The office staff is friendly, but unconcerned unless you are willing to spend more money.

Though they will quickly repair anything that is broken - they do ... [click to read full apartment review]

Gables at the Terrace: Nice complex, rude staff (Recommending!)

2002-11-26T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: The complex is nice -- good exercise facility, nice pool, well maintained externally.

2002-10-04T00:00:00-06:00

From -Anonymous-: I have found the Gables Management overall a royal pain to deal with. I have previously lived in Post Complexes, which are much nicer ammenity and service wise.
