I have loved living at Novel! The amenities are taken care of very well, the maintenance response time is quick, and the front desk and leasing office are all very helpful.

The people who help keep the building up and running are fantastic and are always willing to help!! The amenities are also great and always clean and up to date.

I’ve lived here for a full year now and am still getting lots of sensitive mail from previous tenants (bank statements, tax forms, insurance documents, etc) and have asked several times if someone could reach out to these previous tenants just to n...

Decided to renew my lease because the staff and facilities here are exceptional. Also great sense of community while also still being very private.

I like Novel because it feels like a comfortable and familiar space. There’s a sense of community, but I also have the solitude I need when I want it. The location is convenient, and overall, it just feels like home.

We recently moved in and couldn’t be happier with Novel South Capitol. The amenities are fantastic, the location is convenient, the views are great, and the staff are absolutely wonderful and always eager to help!

I love how friendly the concierge is. They always smile and ask how I'm doing. This only makes my experience better, as everything else has been great.

I had a great move in experience coming from Florida with Novel! The experience was smooth and easy and I was supported by the helpful staff members.

Great staff! Great location. Great atmosphere. People who love dogs, have a growth mindset, and are happy and friendly live here. Complimentary coffee from Any Day Now with your resident mug. Parking is pricier than most ($350/month).

Love the dog park and the community, but haven’t been impressed with the quality of maintenance or comfort of work from home spaces. The advertised events haven’t always been accurate which is frustrating when there is no notice of changes.

The concierge team at Novel is truly such a highlight of living here. Keith Moore, the evening concierge for the East Tower, is not only extremely attentive and dedicated, but also such a genuine person to talk to when I get home for the evening. I a...

Great staff. Kind neighbors. Maintenance is always quick to respond to needs. The building doesn't have as many amenities as others in the neighborhood but they make up for it with good management.

Fantastic residence and community. Keith Moore has been incredibly helpful since the day I moved in. First time apartment living and everything from the move-in to day-to-day living is pretty seamless.

Really enjoy the experience of living at Novel. There are lots of really strong aspects to the community, the amenities, and the overall upkeep of the building.

We just moved in but so far so good! The staff has been so accommodating and patient with all of our questions. The only issue I have with our apartment is that the living room area seems disproportionally small, but regardless I really love our new ...

Doing great. Affordable, friendly staff and nice amenities. Good place to be in DC and great neighbourhood. Short walk to the park for a game
