Ashlawn at Southern Towers

"The only good thing about this place is, it's convenience. The amount of money they charge for the quality of living experience they provide is ridiculous. I have lived here for almost five years and the quality of living experience has been getting worse by the year. At least one elevator is not working most of the time, the heater in the apartment hasn't been working for almost a month , there are a lot of rodents and cockroaches, safety is an issue as there are a lot of car wheels being stolen, at least once a month the water will go out (good luck trying to take a shower before work). It is better to pay a little extra and move to a better place."

"Moving here is the biggest mistake i have ever made. A few month ago my apartment was flooded with water, all my furniture was damaged. The amount of money and time i have wasted because of this is just too much. There are leaks that happen almost every month. Maintenance always coming in and out. I don’t even understand how a place like this can be legal? Imagine all your furniture gone when you get home from work, they said they were supposed to throw out the stuff left from the neighbouring apartment. Mistakes like this happen regularly to different people. Just don’t move in"

"The maintenance, management, and leasing office people are great. They are always available. Whenever I have maintenance needs it gets fixed in the same day. But the house is old and the amenities are not great. But definitely recommend this location if you are looking for affordable housing in Alexandria, VA."

"My experience since I have moved in has been nothing but good. Anyone that I have encountered has gone out of their way to help me whenever I ask any questions or need assistance. The people that work behind the desk are great, all of them. David is awesome he made sure I got some Thanksgiving dinne even though I was late and everything was shutting down and that made me feel special. So I have nothing to say but good."

"This building literally will charge you for every little thing. On top of that the elevators are constantly down and it smells horrible in the hallways. They expect you to always have your rent on time yet when it comes to having a clean facility with elevators that actually work there is an issue. I would not recommend living here. However, the management office can be nice at times."
