Old Town is a beautiful neighborhood, but Gables specifically I would never recommend. A few of the major issues my husband and I experienced - bike theft (people stealing locked bikes from the locked cage - Gables has not added addtl security measures), many fire alarm evacuations at 3am/etc. with no explanation, impossible to reach management (once had to contact them 8 separate times to no avail). If you have an issue, there's a high chance that literally no one will even respond to you.
