Overall great place to live|Recommended: YesOverall, we really enjoyed living here for three years. We did not like that the smoking policy changed in the middle of our lease, especially when one of the first things we asked is if we are allowed to smoke in the building. We were not pleased that this policy changed especially while dogs and pets can roam freely. After renewing your lease the building will clean your carpets or paint your apartment for free - nice perk to keep things fresh and new. This building is about 30 seconds from the 4B bus stop that takes you to the Courthouse and Rosslyn metros so that was super convenient. Ballston Quarter also recently opened up and it is only a 10-minute walk from the building. However, this is not conveniently close to the Ballston metro as advertised -- it is quite a hike.
response from property -Wow, 3 years, thank you so much for choosing to call Madison your home. We are sorry to hear that you have been inconvenienced by the new non smoking policy that was put into affect last year. We love how close Ballston Quarter is as well and how easy it is to get to from our building. We are always hear to talk through any of your concerns, please do not hesitate to let us know if there is anything specific we can address for you. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience. Sincerely, Taryn S.
Recommended.|Recommended: YesGreat location in a lovely neighborhood with a short walk to downtown Ballston - food, shopping entertainment access to public transportation.
The building is well kept with newer amenities and multiple secure access points good neighbors with plenty of parking in the garage.
Staff management courteous accommodating when I toured the location, responsive caring during my lease term - supportive above beyond the requirement during my transition out.
If I weren’t leaving the area, I would renew my lease.

Great location, awesome amenities|Recommended: YesThe pool and grilling area make for a great summer hang out spot. The apartments are beautiful and modern. The only downside is the gym is a little sparse, no bench press squat racks or even smith machine, but for an apartment building gym it's not too bad. Overall though, I am very happy with my new apartment and apartment complex

WIll not renew lease due to upstairs neighbors making too much noise and management's inability to address the issue.|Recommended: NoManagement does not effectively address noise complaints.
We are so sorry for the delay in responding to your review Kyle. We take your concerns seriously and want you to know that there are a series of steps that we follow when noise complaints occur. Once we have a noise complaint on file, we send notices to address the concerns, and continue to follow up based on complaints received. The notices continue to increase in severity based on the number of complaints received. Unfortunately there are times that noise does carry between floors and we want to sincerely apologize for any frustration it has caused. Our Property Manager would welcome the opportunity to speak with you further to better understand where we fell short and how we could improve the process moving forward. Please feel free to reach out to him directly at 703-527-4040. Sincerely, Taryn S.
Love The Madison, but not upstairs neighbors|Recommended: YesI love everything about living at the Madison except for when I head upstairs neighbors. Space between floors ask as a sounding board and amplifies footsteps. Other than that the grounds, the staff, planned activities and proximity to the local attractions make this a wonderful place to live. I certainly recommend it.

Great place|Recommended: YesMadison Ballston station is a great place to live. It comes with the Arlington lifestyle and amenities that make it worth its cost. The only downfall is that the older building 4400 is not as nice and has a much smaller gym, pool. lobby etc than the 4401 building.

Peaceful community with friendly people in a great location|Recommended: YesThe Madison is located close enough to downtown Arlington and the metro that you can feel connected to the DC area without needing a car, but is far enough away that things are quiet and you aren't disturbed.
