- Annual bike membership is very convenient
Poor security_Terrible management
This place is a wreck. Bad security--- 3 men posing as maintenance asked to come into my apartment in the middle of the night and no one at Management will even call me back about it or check their security cameras. Cars are getting stolen from the garage. AVOID this place. They take down bad reviews so do not trust them. The gym went 3 months without working air conditioning in summer. The fire alarms go off in the middle of the night over and over.

Great amenities, wish it was closer to the metro
The value of what you get at the Madison is great - it's very clean, higher end finishes etc., but you sacrifice in location (not bad, a one mile walk from the metro, but not exactly centrally located). The amenities are great, management is *mostly* good and easy to work with.

Modern, open, clean - good value
I greatly enjoy living at the Madison thus far. When apartment hunting, it had the best value and I loved the hardwood floors, open concept and big windows/high ceilings. For the area, you get a nice space and definitely MORE space than a little closer to DC.

Great place if metro isn't your top priority
Great building with a good, stable management team. Leasing office and concierge there almost round the clock and always helpful. Amenities are average - good gym, clubroom, pool. Parking $50 for one car or $75/ea. for two. Spacious apartments are great - but the walk in closets are to-die-for. Beautiful kitchens. Newer front-loading washer dryers are nice. Truly a luxury feel without the cost! However, that's because you're not too close to the metro - far enough that you probably wouldn't want to walk it every day, but not impossible. Super close to route 50. Also close to Lubber Run park which is nice.

Roaches
We've lived in the apartment for 2 years. The first year was great. Management was responsive to repair requests. The folks at the front desk were nice. Good people living there.
Beginning in January, though, we noticed roaches in our apartment. We asked management to call an exterminator, which they did. Unfortunately, we saw no improvement (and this was after ensuring we did all dishes each night and kept the counters free of food). We've since had the exterminator come 4 times and have had to clear the kitchen completely twice. Management does not seem particularly engaged in helping with the problem. It's only after multiple calls each time that they finally schedule an appointment, which ends up having no effect. Now, my wife and I anticipate killing 10-15 roaches upon entering each evening and then again before we go to bed. Can't wait to move out.

Not the finest Arlington has to offer
In short: I wouldn't recommend living here. Maintenance is slow, staff is snippy and unresponsive (took multiple days to pick up a package), the first floor in Building 2 keeps flooding...
The pricing is okay I guess. It took months to get some maintenance done after we moved in. Our dryer and dishwasher still don't close correctly but I've come to accept that at this point.
The gym is fine, it costs money to have more than 3 guests in the club room, they're adding a new coffee machine which is nice.

Madison at Ballston Station
Madison at Ballston Station has been great for my roommate and I so far. It is a newer building so everything is very new, clean, and nice. It is close to the metro, but the downside is it takes about 15-20 minutes to walk to the Ballston stop. There is a bikeshare at the apartment complex however, so if you are making constant trips to the metro, buying the yearly bike membership is worth it.
There is a pool and gym onsite free to use for tenants. There is ample street parking for tenants, however there is also garage parking for $50 a month.
Living in Ballston is great. It is very close to the Ballston mall and a bunch of shops, restaurants, and bars. The Clarendon area is 2 metro stops away and has great nightlife.
It can be anywhere from a 20 minute to 40 minute drive to Towers Crescent depending on the time I leave for work and the weather that day.
