Resident 218433

Verified Resident 2015 - 2016

I had to rent the apartment from Mexico before getting to DC because I was traveling with my dog. It was really hard to find information about the building and the apartment, staff are helpful. I just think that if I had the option of… See More >

    I just recently moved to DC and rented this apartment "site unseen". When I arrived, I was very please with the building, my apartment and the very professional management staff. This is an older low rise building so you can hear your neighbors,… See More >

      Very pleased with the August. Superb neighborhood, super convenient. The staff, from the leasing agents to maintenance, have been great with communication and super friendly and helpful. The apartment has so much charm. I feel lucky to have found this place.

        1/26/2015

        It has been mediocre. I have had numerous problems that take multiple attempts to fix. The management is reluctant to fix problems that make living at the August uncomfortable. Their strategy seems to be to simply ignore your request until you call… See More >

          Staying at the August has been a overall good experience, if you take some things with a pinch of salt. The building is very old, so there are no amenities like pool, fitness center, etc. The electrical wiring is not very good, e.g. I cannot… See More >

            10/15/2014

            It's an older building, so it does have some quirks like dated appliances and few outlets, but overall, it's a charming space with wonderful residents. Not to mention, it's in the heart of DuPont Circle. It's hard to beat, especially for the price.

              The apartment is small, but has a ton of character. The hardwood floors are gorgeous! The community is quiet and safe. For the price you can't get any better in the DuPont Circle location. If you are most concerned about location, this is the perfect… See More >

                The August is great place to live- The location is amazing, you can't hear your neighbors, and I've never had any pest problems. Sometimes the hallways smell a bit when it rains(I think perhaps that the common area carpeting should be done away with), but… See More >

                  The move-in process was seamless for me. A little miscommunication between myself and the leasing agent about when I would sign my lease, but it worked out. A little bit of a long response lag for a maintenance request, but it wasn't the end of… See More >

                    4/16/2014

                    Since 1993 I have enjoyed living in the August. The community is convenient and clean. Residents are very friendly. The building is well kept both inside and out. The grounds are immaculate. I love the vast choices of restaurants and shopping.

                      Issues with plumbing, mice, roaches and bedbugs, but staff have been very responsive, professionalism, and friendliness. All problems have been solved. It is an old building, but great location and safe.

                        As I wrote on the precious survey--it has been very poor. I have had mice for nearly five months and the problem was not taken care of until I took my own preventative measures. There was no sympathy or compensation.

                          Dear Resident, My name is Eddie and I am the Marketing Manager for Bernstein Management Corporation. I would first like to thank you for your review because we appreciate your feedback and also value your business. This is a very unfortunate experience and one that we do not want our residents going through. The building is a new acquisition for us and since we acquired the building we have upgraded many features â?? addressing many of the pre-existing discrepancies and also making every attempt to be proactive. In addition, I would like to add that the mice issue, we believe, is coming from the neighboring shops. We are diligently working together with our contractors to resolve the mice issue. So far, we have sealed every hole and set several traps in strategic locations throughout the building. Along with setting traps and sealing holes we are conducting weekly inspections and clean-outs. We are dependent on the residents to report any issues so we can exterminate and eventually eradicate the mice. Of course, with every work order we also do follow-up calls and for the most part are seeing some success. Our manager is very aware of the issue and she too shares your level of frustration because she doesn't want this to happen to any of the residents. She and I spoke about the issue and she informed me about the weekly clean outs being conducted, as well as the calls being made to the city so that they can also join in and clean the alley which would aid in the eradication of the mice. Again, we apologize for any inconvenience and we hope the issue is resolved sooner than later. If you need anything please feel free to call me at 202.587.5296 or email directly at evazquez@bmcproperties.com Sincerely, Eddie Vazquez

                          The August is in the perfect location in DC-close to everything you'd need, several different metro lines, restaurants, shops, etc. The building was constructed in the early 1900s, and so includes some quirks of older buildings-very few electrical outlets, no central AC, small galley kitchens,… See More >
