Directly across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C., Arlington is less a suburb than an extension of the nation’s capital. It’s the home of the Pentagon, Arlington National Cemetery, and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, with a number of waterfront parks offering beautiful views across the river to the National Mall.
The community provides a wide range of living options, from apartments, townhomes, and duplexes to condos and houses. A major reason for Arlington’s popularity is that there is so much to do. Washington may be packed with monuments, museums, and other sightseeing landmarks, but Arlington holds the advantage when it comes to the more day-to-day shopping, dining, entertainment, and nightlife.
You’ll have several options for getting around town or into D.C., whether you choose to drive, take the Metro, or ride your bike — Arlington has earned a silver rating from the League of American Bicyclists.

I have enjoyed my residential experience as service for any maintenance or general question have been extremely helpful. I would recommend the complex to anyone looking for a safe and organized building.

Hello there, thank you; we appreciate your feedback!
Nice building and everything's been great. Only thing that sucks is there is no loading dock which makes moving in pretty awful. Otherwise everything's nice

Hello there, thank you; we appreciate your feedback!
I absolutely love living at gables 1221. I first moved in back in 2019, then I took a hiatus from 2022-part of 2023 to live in Hawaii, then signed a 13-month lease on September 22, 2023. I couldn't be more excited! From the amenities to the serenity of the building, Gables 1221 truly feels like home to me. Thank you so much to the Gables staff, too, who make the experience even more pleasant.

Hello there, thank you; we appreciate your feedback!
It’s a great building - love my apartment. Great location. However, the rent is very high for a building without upscale amenities. There is a small gym and office area with a printer, but still not as nice as other places with that price.

Overall happy living here. Wish they were more strict on certain rules. Management and maintenance is wonderful. Great location. Quiet area. Walkable to many places.

Great apartment. Can be somewhat noisy, but the neighborhood is great. There's always parking. Joanne in the front office is the best! Very dog friendly, but the rent goes up dramatically every year!

Hello there, thank you; we appreciate your feedback!
I moved to the complex in May and have been very pleased with my experience! The apartment has been great and I have enjoyed living here. It has been quite the upgrade from my last place and do not regret my decision.
Property Manager at The Alcott, Responded To This Review
Hello there, thank you; we appreciate your feedback!
I’ve been living at the complex for a month, and so far, so good. I just wish we had been shown the actual unit before we signed the lease. When we toured we were shown the model, which had a nice view. The actual apartment doesn’t; looks out to the restaurant’s parking lot and dumpsters. Other than that, it’s a nice community.
Property Manager at The Alcott, Responded To This Review
Hello there, thank you; we appreciate your feedback!
The apartment has a nice size kitchen with plenty of storage. The shared spaces are clean. Cannot hear my neighbors next to or above me. Only place I found with double sinks that is affordable

Hello there, thank you; we appreciate your feedback!
The staff are great. The amenities are just okay. There is a small gym with minimal equipment, but there is an outdoor sitting area with a fire pit and grill. The rent prices are sky rocketing here and everywhere else close by, so we are moving, but the area/location is great. I have lived here for 3 years.

Love living here. Great building management and Maintenance. Clean building. Quiet neighborhood. Walking distance to DC and metro. Walk to work.
Property Manager at The Alcott, Responded To This Review
Hello there, thank you; we appreciate your feedback!
I do not recommend this building. While nice on the outside and nice units themselves, the management team is incompetent and downright shady. They tell you one thing even if it is wrong, they won't own up to it. I was told that upon moving out the utility account would be switched back to Gables. They never did this. As a result I was charged utilities for 2.5 months, including for the new tenant's use, and they refused to reimburse me. Completely dishonest. Stay away from this place.
Property Manager at The Alcott, Responded To This Review
Hello there, thank you; we appreciate your feedback!
First of all very quiet, well insulated walls. Very responsive maintenance. I mostly ran into William, always very friendly, helpful, problem solving, responsible, and goes above and beyond to help. Other staff, Joann, Garry, and Steven are great. They handle issues very positively and efficiently. They always try to accommodate for your needs. Everything is kept clean and maintained well.

Almost one year into a lease, very positive experience to this point. Maintenance team is outstanding. Very responsive and helpful. Great customer service with leasing office. With pending new lease offer, if reasonable, will determine if we renew. Overall a very pleasant living arrangement.

Nice place.great location. Pet fee is $500, and it is not a deposit. The fitness center has the bare minimum. It’s not worth the current spike in rent prices.

Hello there, thank you; we appreciate your feedback!
I've been living at Gables for almost a month now and love it! My apartment is beautiful, spacious and clean. The leasing manager, Joanne, has been so helpful with anything I've needed and a pleasure! Maintenance has also been super fast to respond to each request and are extremely nice. I love the location because it feels like it's in a more private area, and off the main roads, but also really close to anything I need and even in walking distance from many places.

It's like a hidden gem community for me. The only thing honestly I don't like the pricing/quote system changing every day and the admin fee nonreturn $600 bucks but I thought it worth it. The community itself, location, etc look perfect for me.
Property Manager at The Alcott, Responded To This Review
Thank you for your positive comments about our community and for making us your home. We are glad to know our location is perfect for you! Unfortunately, we cannot change the pricing/quote system but if we can enhance your experience in any other way, please do not hesitate to reach out to the office. We are grateful for your review.
Very incompetent staff. They allow contractors to leave garage doors open for days. This lead to a theft of around 20 bikes that were locked up in the parking garage bike rack. Even with insurance I was unable to receive the full value of my bike returned. The contractors are still leaving the doors open and unlocked, and when this is brought to the management's attention, they do nothing about it and are apathetic. Do not move here if you value your property.
Property Manager at The Alcott, Responded To This Review
Thank you for making us aware of your concerns. We take great pride in our high-caliber team of professionals who serve our community, so we are concerned about what you have shared. You can be assured that we are looking into your feedback and will take appropriate action if necessary.

Management is unprofessional and very unhelpful. Not worth it.

Thank you for reaching out. We want our residents to feel cared for and well-served by our team, so we are disappointed to hear your comments. We need more details to help us address these issues on priority, so please contact us at 12TwentyOne@gables.com at your earliest convenience. We appreciate your time!
