This place is too cheap or incompetent to hook up all the TVs in the gym properly. You can clearly see that there is only one cable box per 2 treadmill and elliptical sets, meaning only or treadmill and elliptical have a functioning tv. This is not what I paid for. Make sure all the TVs in the gym work properly, do what you have to do.

I've lived here for 3 years. It is terrible. I've had leaks from the ceiling every few months. The AC/heating vents leake red liquid. (I've spent so much money on laundry from my own towels being needed to mop up this buildings problems. ) The rent skyrockets at the end of each lease. Staff used to be the reason to stay, but resently it's gone down. I had a guest stay the night, and went to the office for a guest pass. I was told that they don't have passes for guests, it would be fine. We woke up and the car was towed. $185 fine because a staff member didn't care. We went into the office to ask to give staff a memo about how their WAS guests passes (save someone else the pain of getting towed). And a woman was very rude to us. She said everystaff member knows all of the policies, implying that we were lying about being misinformed.
Can't wait to leave!!!!
Edit: So I finally moved out an found a great place in falls church - but I wish I could say I was done with the nightmare that is The Horizons! I was told that I earned my entire deposit back, and after 30 days of my lease being over I would receive a check in the mail. It has been over 50 days and nothing. I've called multiple times and nobody could tell me anything! I finally went in person today & they told me that not only was the check not in The mail yet - it hasn't even been cut! They told me I've been put on "priority" and will have the check in a few days. - that'd be great, except that's what they told me last week and apparently it's just a lie.response / report this review -

Horrendous, they do not have anyone on call at night for any emergencies, the rude managers act as if you are bothering them with complaints, They lie, and try to weasel their way out of every single issue and pin it back on you. I had previously lived here and moved back again for my second time in 2016..my wife and I broke the lease because the newer gates hudson management is trash, they are horrendous. The only good people are the trash people and the maintenance men.

Our rent was just suddenly raised by $500/month.
Since we are renting on a short-term lease, awaiting a house renovation, there is nothing we can do, since we have no other place to go.
This apartment has an old kitchen. A leaking gas stove that required several requests to management until they finally replaced it. Cracked refrigerator door seal and shoddily made drawers and cabinets. No hooks or hangers in closets. Need I go on?
Perhaps our new rent is covering the renovations they are making to other apartments?response / report this review -

I currently am a resident of Horizon and I would NOT recommend this place to anyone. First off, although they are nice to you when you sign a lease, understand that they do NOT care at all about you once you actually sign that lease. I currently have the apartments directly below, directly above, and to the left of my apartment being renovated. That means that EVERY DAY starting at 7am I hear construction sounds. I don't mean occasional hammeringI mean the sounds of SAWS, automatic drills, and loud music and screaming from the workers. From ALL directions!! I work from home, so as you can imagine this is a nightmare.
I have talked to the staff multiple times about it, and nothing seems to change. They essentially cut me off when I even try to talk about it. This morning the construction people began before 8am - on a SATURDAY! I understand that buildings / companies need to make renovations, but to do 3 that are all direct neighbors of the same apartment is just horrible business. Good management would know to keep a balance of keeping current tenants happy, and being able to renovate for the future.
It's quite disappointing, especially given the rent is ridiculously high considering the condition of the building (extremely old) and the terrible location. You can't walk ANYWHERE from here - Lee Highway (the street its on - it meets w/ Old Dominion) is literally a highway.so no walking. I tried to walk to Dunkin Donuts oncethat was a mistake (I almost got hit by a truck).
The AC/Heating system is a joke. The building decides whether it is on heat or cool. So you are either freezing (i'm sitting in my 62 degree apartment writing this because I can't turn on heat) or living in 90 degrees. Literally. Also, no ceiling fans. The AC / heat is 1 vent in each room that blows out dust with it. It's like a terrible hotel.
Bottom line, you can get a LOT more for your money around here. and find a building that's more modern - and that you won't be paying the price of their renovations while you actually live there.
Take it from me, someone who has lost my ability to concentrate, and even SLEEP due to the management of this property do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.response / report this review -

Nice staff, good apartment. Only downside is that the building is pretty old. But well-maintained.
