            Only lived here for a couple months, but I absolutely love it here! Great roommates and great location! I especially love the fact that the shuttle busses to school are really nice! Great experience so far!

              I found this apartment complex to be one of the best in Huntsville. The staff is always so nice and welcoming, and rent is very affordable. The amenities are also great. Maintenance was always very helpful and timely, but I rarely had any problems.

                      We appreciate you taking the time to provide your valuable feedback. Apartment living can be challenging at times and as a resident you may feel that your issues aren't being addressed in a timely manner. Please know that we do value you as a resident and we strive to maintain a community that you can be proud of to call home. Unfortunately not all residents are responsible when taking care of their pets and picking up after them. As a renter there are some simple maintenance issues that are your responsibility to maintain; light bulbs are considered one of them; the exception to that is your fluorescent kitchen light bulb or lights you cannot reach safely. Again thank you for your feedback and we look forward to resolving your concerns. Please feel free to contact me by email: gateway@irliving.com or 936-295-6644.

Our staff at Gateway has always strived to provide excellent customer service and prompt response to maintenance issues. In response to your issue with the Wi-Fi and cable, we had contacted Sudden Link and they assured us that we are receiving the proper signal strength. In the early summer we did experience an issue with one of the pool pumps and has since been repaired. We are a community that welcomes people of all walks of life; we are proud to be culturally diverse. We also adhere to all Fair Housing rules and regulations.

Our staff at Gateway has always strived to provide excellent customer service and prompt response to maintenance issues. On student communities we have a small window of time to get all units made ready for the next resident to move-in; some maintenance issues may have been inadvertently missed. I toured your apartment and spoke with you regarding the issues you mentioned in your posting and found most of the issues had already been resolved and that you had received a brand new washer and dryer. We contacted Sudden Link who is the provider for the Wi-Fi and Cable service; a technician was sent and it was determined that we were receiving a proper signal. If you have any other issues in your unit please feel free to contact the office immediately.

                                                We apologize for your negative experience at our community. The issues you have experienced in prior years were under the previous management company. Since taking over Gateway at Huntsville we have tried to provide a better living experience for the residents. Being a student based community does provide its own set of challenges with regards to maintenance issues. The apartments and appliances within the unit are misused and broken due to negligence. We do our best to make repairs without having to charge the residents. The shuttle bus has since been replaced and runs much more efficiently. With regards to the water bill, the residents are only charged for the water that goes to the buildings. Common area water such as pool, office, lawn irrigation are billed separate from the building water, therefore you are not paying for such. At any time you can come to the office and you will be shown how the water bill is divided among all residents equally; we use third party billing to assure accuracy. Late fees are only assessed if you have a balance over $100. As this is an anonymous post, we cannot address the specific issues within your apartment. We would like to speak with you about them. Please contact us at gateway@irliving.con or stop by the office.

                                                  Just recently got taken over by a new management company and they're even worse than the old ones. The furnished apartments come with cheap crap...

                                                    We apologize for your negative experience at our community. As you know living on a student based community does have certain challenges. Our staff at Gateway has always strived to provide excellent customer service and prompt response to maintenance issues. Unfortunately we can not speak for the actions of the previous management company. We however have tried to be fair in regards to fines for trash being left by front doors. When we took over the property in January 2012, we addressed several issues that we felt needed immediate attention, such as, the use of Gateway furniture on the patio, as it is not outdoor furniture. We would like to speak with you regarding any other issues you may have. Please contact us at Gateway@irliving.com or stop by the office.
