Leasing was made very easy by Dawn Webster, the leasing agent who handled the entire process from the showing of the apartment to the orientation of the property and the "move in"!

I came here after a horrible renting experience. The units are pest free - I had bad neighbors…read morepreviously and had a serious pest problem. It doesn't matter how clean you are if your neighbors aren't. The neighbors are wonderful. The common areas are well cared for. Amenities are great, not the newest but in fine form. HOA is lower than other places I looked at. The neighborhood is generally very quiet. Your biggest nemesis or annoyance will be aggressive birds during mating season. I'll take that. Silly birds. The HOA is very responsive and eager to please residents. Pools are clean, playgrounds are clean, it's a glorious place. I love living here. It's peaceful, affordable, and a great place.

A lot happened while I was here, and I'll keep it to 3 specific things:…read more - When I moved in they were repaving the parking lot. I wasn't told about this until after I signed my lease and wasn't able to move in. They asked if I could come back tomorrow when it should hopefully be dry. After a lot of back and forth, they let my father and I stay in the show room apartment for two days, which didn't have a working shower. - After the snow storm, they barely did any plowing and kept sending everyone that they aren't responsible for maintaining the parking lots. People started shoveling spots and putting furniture in them to mark their territory. Emails were sent that nobody can do this, and they said maintenance would remove it, but they never did. Then one morning I discovered one of my tires was slashed because of a parking spot. This is a hostile and unsafe place to live, management did nothing. - Once it warmed up, I discovered my AC wasn't working. Once they finally came to check on it, they determined the unit needed to be replaced. After several days, I came home to a note on my door they replaced it and there was some flooding. I walked in to find 3 industrial blowers going, pulled up carpet, and my furniture all moved around. It was in the living room, bedroom, and bathroom. I wasn't called or emailed this had happened. The next day, I called the emergency maintenance number several times and nobody answered. Then I tried to find an email to send to them but that was not possible, the only way to contact them in a written form is through the websites contact portal. A few hours after that, someone replied basically saying someone would contact me "soon". Eventually the maintenance guy called me back and I asked what had happened, what's the plan? He didn't know, said they would be there Monday. Now it's Monday, I went to the office when it opened and asked for the manager, who isn't going to be in until noon or something, and was told basically nothing. They will dismiss your concerns. They won't talk to you or try to address any issues. Don't live here. It's the worst places I've ever been.

I've lived here for over a decade, in 3 different apartments. The property is older (1980s) and…read moreother than cosmetic repairs, there is a list of things that needs to be replaced or repaired. My electric bill ranges from $200 to $500 because the windows aren't seeled anymore due to age, the sliding glass doors no longer fit or close properly, and the newer steps are already cracking. I pay about $3500/month for the unit, which is a 3 br/3 ba, and the electricity is ridiculous. Typically exterior painting or repairs have preceeded a new owner; as we had the exterior painted a few months ago, this is what I expect is happening. The company hired to paint didn't bother to replace moldy insulate the walls, which I took pictures of. This adds to the sky-high electricity prices. In the summer I have my AC on and portable fans to make it tolerable. In the winter, I've got flannel sheets, socks and a sweatshirt on to sleep in, and numberous blankets. It is still very cold, and I'm from about 20 minutes south of the Canadian border, so I'm used to cold. The office is a revolving door of workers, so there is no continuity and little understanding of the long term issues with the property. Some of these issues could be taken care of if the managers would walk the property once in awhile. The claim that they don't know isn't believable as they are on site and some of the maintenance workers live here. The location is great, however the traffic is going to be picking up with the new hospital, townhouse development across from Lane Elementary, and the new Government center behind Chili's.

Very disappointing experience with Sullivan Place. Management constantly adds unexpected additional…read morecharges that were never clearly explained. Even after moving out, we received a long list of extra fees that seemed unreasonable. Communication with the management is very difficult. They are not willing to work with tenants or offer any flexibility, and it feels like they are always looking for ways to charge more money. Overall, the experience felt very stressful and unfair. I would recommend future tenants to read every detail very carefully and be prepared for many additional charges.

My washing machine and dryer are old as dirt! I only live here due to the proximity to work! AVOID AT ALL COSTS On a positive note, they do a good job at negotiating a rent increase but it's a struggle to even get that! You'd think that a tenant that's been here for 5 years and is in EXCELLENT STANDING wouldn't have to put up with ridiculous rent increases every year!!!!!

The stairwells always had trash, used napkins, and smelled like cigarettes and marijuana. Loud noise from the unit below us every single night for months and management never did anything. We could not get a single nights sleep. It was so bad that we had to sue the management for not enforcing the lease terms. After winning in court, we were able to break the lease without any penalties and we ended up moving 8 months into a 12 month lease in the middle of a snow storm. It was that bad. Management here is abysmal. TLDR: Do not move here under any circumstances. They are nice to you until you sign the lease then they will treat you like garbage. Plenty of other decent apartments around Alexandria. Also, do not believe any of the 5 star reviews, most of them are from people who toured the place one time and management is probably giving incentives to leave a good review.

She rushes you off the phone and expresses clear annoyance if you ask a single question. She has no problem taking deep breaths to show you she has no interest in helping. On my move out day, she reached out to let us know a piece of the blind was chipped and made sure to inform us she had taken a photo of it "as proof." I'm astonished this woman still has a job there. The complex is ok. It was better when we first moved in. Parking is limited bc they decided to offer reserved parking spaces which leaves very few available, forcing you to park outside of the gate. We, along with several others, had our car broken into. There are only two dumpsters so be prepared to drive your trash if you aren't lucky enough to live near one of the two. Maintenance is quick. But if you ever need any type of assistance from the leasing office, be prepared to be treated like garbage. There are far better complexes that don't come with attitude and rudeness.

Now, rather than being isolated to the bathroom, it's spreading all over my home in all vents making it impossible to live normally. The service team can never find a solution and does not communicate clearly what next steps are. Our AC was down all summer and we have been dealing with this smell for over 6 months. After over 5 home visits to identify the cause of the smell, now they are saying something is trapped in the vents blocking the flow but they can't even check because they can't access the roof. I don't know how long they expect us to live like this. We truly regret renewing our lease here for another 12 months. It's to the point where opening the windows and balcony can't even get the smell out. i'm already mentally prepping for them to not have an answer tmw when they are supposed to check or to be given some long wait time to make the fix. We are beyond frustrated.
