The apartment building feels new and always smells clean when you walk in, which is very nice and refreshing. The residents are quiet and so is the surrounding area. So far it's been a great experience. The maintenance staff is quick to respond to an...

The rent is great, management could definitely be better. Housing/cleaning and maintenance staff are always quite friendly. The apartment is lovely, but things seem to fall apart a lot. Even small things like the blinds aligning with the window - the...

Great apartments with an active and involved staff. Maintenance is responsive and the building is always very clean! The gym is also very big and always kept in good shape. My only wish is that the front desk would notify us when packages arrived for...

Pleased with the management at complex. Friendly and professional! Quiet and safe neighborhood with easy access of parking. Gym needs to be updated and a few machines need to be fixed, but otherwise, all is good!

Quiet neighborhood, friendly neighbors and management is great! So far, so good! Only complaint would be to get some of the bikes in the gym fixed in a more timely manner!

I chose this apt because of the location. And the apt is acceptable and the staff is good. Service calls have been answered promptly. If I were apt shopping again, I would rent from a private individual. Seems complexes all share the same formula- ma...

I have a yelp review posted as well which makes it seem like this place is the worst so this is stark contrast. But, in terms of space, I have loved my apartment for three years. I have the ADA unit so it happens to be oversized in many ways but lack...

We lived in a 1BR from August 2010-August 2011. We loved it - neighbors were great, amenities were great (except that there's no pool). The firepit area is really cool, and people are always out there bbq-ing during the summer. The gym is nice for an...

Don't fall for the rent specials because a year later they will up your rent to more than what you could pay for living on top of the Metro in Courthouse or Ballston. This place is so not all that convenient to the Metro and don't count on the ART bu...

Like a fish, you are lured in by all the specials but then a HUGE RENT INCREASE is imminent. I'm talking hundreds of dollars in increase. DO NOT SIGN UP unless this is just for a year. They expect you to pay next-to-metro rents while being FAR FROM T...
