They value the time and money of potential residents much higher than that of current residents no matter how long you've lived there. I was walked in on while asleep and half clothed by maintenance men not once but TWICE without them knocking. This is about as close as you can get to being in an HOA without ever having signed up to be in one. They are strict and often passive aggressive including but not limited to threatening to drain the pools if residents can not "cooperate" with their rules. Children are not allowed in pool areas even with adults. I also frequently had to keep my thermostat around 75 degrees to keep my apartment above a hoodie temp. due to poor insulation. Beware.

I didn't leave the place in perfect shape but as someone with family in construction and renovation I guarantee you it was NOT worth that much. What the hell is the point of a deposit at that point? Sure it has a lot of nice reviews but interesting that they're all from 8 years ago, around the time the place was nearly done being built. Likely a promotion ran where they gave some perk to people leaving nice reviews. They're nice at first but the moment you're in there it literally feels like you cannot LIVE there. You have passive aggressive management sending rude letters and emails- to the point now where any notice from a landlord sends my anxiety up the roof, even to this day when I live in a HOUSE now. Management, don't even bother responding to this because I'm not reading your responses. I don't trust you enough to give you my real name, because knowing you, you'd be awful. At this point, I don't trust you to actually be genuine in anything you say. Everything is a nice platitude to get the next lease in your roster so you can rip someone else off.

The genuine, cheerful greetings from Mark & Andrea (Manager & Assistant Manager) & the attention they give to their residents' or guests' needs far exceeded any other property I visited in my search. It took me several visits to decide which apartment style I would like, & they were the most gracious hosts & property tour guides I encountered. Also, having all calls returned before the end of that day, even after business hours, is greatly appreciated. This management team seems to enjoy exceeding expectations.

no camera in the mailroom. There are always mail packages laying all over the apartment mailroom…read more I think there are at least 200 units in the building. Some of my packages were missing after the Amazon tracker said they were delivered. After calling Amazon to let them know what's going on, Amazon decided to give me a refund. I sent emails to the building office to let them know what's going on. all they did was to blame things on me, Amazon, the mail delivery service, to deflect the blame. I am not saying the office is to blame for what happen to my packages, but not a single word of concern from them, and not trying to improve the situation, not taking a security measure action is bad. The mailroom is in an isolated corner of the building, away from the public area and the public view. There is no camera in the mailroom where anyone can walk in and just grab anything they want and walk out. There is no way to know what's going on unless you are there to watch everyone come in and out. The office repeatedly mentioned that nothing ever got stolen from the mailroom. Well, now they can say at least ONE TIME THERE HAS BEEN AN INCIDENT because I filed a police report on the missing packages. install a camera in the mailroom, do something about people stealing/mixing up the packages. Do something, anything is better than denial from the people who can make the changes. Be aware, people will steal your stuff out of the mailroom and you will find your packagers missing, this is happening everywhere. but the office won't do anything about it. All they offer is empty words that are worth less than their service. They charge the premium price for the minimum to no service.

I have truly loved living here and looked forward to coming home to my apartment everyday after work. There are three separate blocks of apartments each with their own COMMUNITY ROOMS offering different things. I find these rooms to be a huge perk. You can relax and study, enjoy cable tv, or shoot pool with friends. The outdoor community area is my favorite and offers comfortable lounge seating, tables with umbrellas for shade, a fire pit, and gas grills. I would love to see the community rooms grow with board game options! The BIKE PATH lines the back road of the apartments offering great access to other areas of town with minimal traffic. Underground PARKING is available for an additional charge- be sure to let them know if you work at the hospital for a parking discount. There is ample outdoor parking for guests or if you choose to not pursue underground parking. The main GYM includes 4 treadmills, 2 ellipticals, stationary bike, free weights, towels, water, and some type of cable weights? There is a much much smaller gym that I believe only has a treadmill and some free weights (not positive). I wish I could pick this apartment up and move it across the country with me. Who can complain about living directly across from Hilldale Mall and aka target? Whole Foods is also just down the road.

Copying this back over from my post about butler management:…read moreI have been lucky to only really have positive renting experiences in Madison, well that is minus the time that I spent at Hamilton Plaza (owned by butler management). I guess to start, the problems began on move in day, I was given a key fob that just didn't work, and when I went in to get this problem solved it took roughly 2 weeks for them to get me a working key fob, preventing me from accessing my own apartment without going through the garage. The next unfortunate event took place about a month into living there, my parking pass fell off my mirror on a Saturday night without my noticing, and come Monday morning I awoke to find a blank spot where my car was! $600 and a half day off work later I had my car back and did some digging. The towing company that butler plaza contracts with is less than a mile outside of the towing radius that would've cost around $125 dollars so I was charged around $500 for about a mile tow. When I went in to complain about this (especially since they have my plate and car information) they told me that I was lucky! I'd receive a new parking pass to replace the on that had fallen off without charge, but it was 100% my fault that my car got towed. The final slap in the face came when I transferred my MGOE service over to my new apartment but something happened where I maintained a line of service at Hamilton Plaza. I reached out to them immediately upon noticing this and was told that they would retroactively end my service upon my move out date. Come 6 months later, I'm looking into my electric bill and see a $115 charge for services unpaid that had been accruing interest from my prior apartment. I call back in and they sent me an emailing how it was my responsibility to handle all utilities. Absolute scam artists that have been facetious and rude through every interaction I've had. Thanks for wasting my money!

I have lived in 9 different apartment buildings over my lifetime, and have lived in some of the…read moreworst and some of the best. After a year and a half (2014-15), I can count Hamilton Place Apartments as one of the best I have lived in. Location, location, location! It is centrally located a block off the "quiet side" of the Square across from the Madison Children's Museum and Bradbury's (see my review for this place - yum!). I consider it the "quiet side" because it is far enough away from campus, bars and stores that it gets very little late night foot traffic - rarely will you be awaken at 2am "woohoo"-screaming kids coming home from the bar or the obscene yellings of the homeless crazies that often wander the square. However, even though it is on the "quiet side", all of the things to love about the Square (Farmer's Market, restaurants, cafes, festivals, etc.) are all within a couple blocks walk. Excellent Management Gaby is an excellent property manager - always available via phone, text or email. She responded to every question I had within a day and took every request seriously. At least 24 hours notice was given anytime they needed access to my apartment for routine maintenance (filters, window cleaning, etc.) and when I needed something replaced or fixed, Ricardo, on-site maintenance guy would address quickly and completely, even if it's at their expense. In my case, Ricardo replaced a toilet shortly after move-in that wouldn't stop running. Hamilton Place is Gaby's only building, so unlike other property companies that manage several properties in Madison, you get very prompt and personal attention from the staff if/when you need their support or help. Right-Sized Building The building itself is older, but has been well-maintained. It has the amenities you would expect from a luxury apartment (penthouse patio & community room w/view of lake mendota, fitness center, secure elevator, storage lockers, etc.). The best thing about the amenities is that they're almost always available, because there are only ~9 apartments per floor of this 6-story building. In other words, the amenities are appropriate for the number of people living there. There are assigned parking spots in the heated garage. Gaby can arrange for a spot if you have guests coming, or there is a city parking garage conveniently located across the street if guest spots are not available. Primo Apartment Since I work from home full-time, I tend to splurge and go big with the apartments I rent... so a disclaimer - I was in #600, which I believe is one of their primo-apartments. If you're looking for an apartment and it's available and within your budget - grab it - you'll be very happy. Stainless steel appliances, built-in space heater in the bathroom, amazing view of the capital (see photo), easy access (elevator, trash chute, stairs). Friendly Neighbors of All Kinds Your fellow neighbors will be of all ages and backgrounds. You never know who may join you on the elevator - from a small family w/kids to a young professional heading out to walk his/her dog to one of the international students that live on the entire 2nd floor. But regardless of who you may run into, you can count on him/her being friendly. If you are considering living at Hamilton Place, feel free to send me a message. I'd be happy to answer any questions.

With the lease amount, the courtyards and all of that is fantastic, but imagine being a new student, not being able to wash your clothes unless it's 11 pm or later during the week?? There should be at least 6 (SIX) or MORE laundry sets (washer/dryers) on EVERY floor (they have the room if you look online and consider stackable units), plus the ability to reserve machines (with a time limit if you do not start/check in at reserved time), nor do they even post data of peak times so students can plan (it's a link at their site, no data, the folding table in between the machines is usually open though??) Why should any new student need to start doing their laundry at 11pm because that's the first time they're able to???? There is more than enough room in the gorgeous apartments for stackable units, even the small load type, which would be perfect.
