Why lock the coffee machine|Recommended: NoI don't get why the coffee machine locks past the early morning. That is annoying on weekends. Also any event that is hosted has enough food for a very small amount of people.
response from property -Hi Joseph,
Thank you for the 4-star review. We are happy to be one of the only communities in the area that still offers complimentary coffee service for our residents. Coffee is available from 6:00 am to 12:00 pm Monday through Friday, and 8:00 am to 12:00 pm on Saturday and Sunday. While we recognize that it is not a 24 hour service, we hope that you still find it beneficial. Our December Bar-B-Q event was one of our best attended events to date, and we couldn't be more excited about it. We have made some adjustments for our events moving forward to make sure that everyone can partake in the fun. Please do not hesitate to let us know if there is anything else we can do to enhance your experience and we look forward to seeing you at our next event.

Terrible staff|Recommended: NoThe people who work here are unhelpful and dont follow through when you requesr or return items and then try to tell you it never happened.
Hi Maxwell,

We did receive the parking passes but it was later in the month and the change had not been reflected in your account at the time rent was due. Our Property Manager will be reaching out to you to discuss your experience to ensure we understand the issues and to work towards mending this relationship.

A nice place to live|Recommended: YesThe buildings are nice and the location is good. My only complaint is that sometimes things in the common areas break, and it takes awhile for them to be fixed i.e. the AC in the gym, and the key fob scanners in the stairways

Great quiet community with respectful neighbors and friendly staff|Recommended: YesI would recommend this community however I do think the pool hours and days of operation should be extended to Mondays...or at the very least to later hours on Fridays Saturdays.
Property is gorgeous|Recommended: YesI absolutely love it. I wish guest parking was more readily available without having to pay 8 for friends and family who only come to visit for a couple hours. overall I absolutely love it here
Hi Paige,
Thank you very much for the positive review! We are happy to hear that overall you are enjoying your experience at our community! Sincerely, Ashleigh N.
Great apartment, paper thin ceiling|Recommended: YesWe have loved living in our apartment the past 6 months, but our neighbors above us sound like they are in our apartment. Regardless of the carpet, you can hear everything from a drawer closing, shower being turned on and just overall walking.
My only other change would be at least one complimentary pool guest, 5 per is excessive and have never seen that charge with other Arlington locations for even the first guest.

Great property, absolutley terrible service |Recommended: NoI would tell them that the property is great, but that the leasing office is awful. They made every step of signing a lease a nightmare. If I didn't want to live with my roommates so badly, I would have given up and looked at other apartments. They were completely unprofessional, incompetent, and violated my privacy by sending emails to my employers that were not meant for them. They also would tell me one thing and then would tell me another the next day. I would tell people not to even try to live here because the office is so terrible to deal with. I am still dealing with problems and my roommates and I even had to call the regional office and file a complaint because of how badly we were being treated. Every single step of the process was a fight. I never want to deal with them again.
