Needs Much Improvement - Not bad. But could be a lot better. Specifically, I'd like to see the common areas vastly improved. Frayed and stained carpet line the halls. Paint is chipped and faded in the hallways. Skylights leak. Hallways frequently stink of cigarettes, water, dog pee, and dirt. The grounds frequently look like a junk yard... people leave old furniture and dishes on the curb as a ...Full review of Park Crest at Glover Park

quality depends on the unit - I've lived in the same studio in this building for basically four years now. I might have lucked out with the pests issue since I have seen on average only 2-3 small roaches/bugs per year. I don't know if you consider that a lot but I can definitely live with it. Frankly I think the pest problem is going to depend on the location of the unit in the building and also on your neighbors ...Full review of 1500 Massachusetts Avenue Apartments

You get what you pay for - Gelmarc Towers does have some positive points, such as a good location and reasonable rent for this area of Washington. However, the extremely poor management results in numerous problems for tenants. You will have to decide for yourself if cheap rent outweighs the issues. There is a serious infestation in the building, with roaches seen regularly by a significant number of tenants ...Full review of Gelmarc Towers

I just sued them in Small Claims Court -- and WON! - Like many of the reviewers here who have posted before me, I received egregious and unsubstantiated fees upon move-out. I was charged approximately $1500 on top of my security deposit for charges pertaining to replacing the carpet in my apartment, which we had been renting for 3 years. Furthermore, this debt was immediately sent to a collection agency. For people who might be in a ...Full review of Mount Vernon Plaza Apartments

major improvement - Sandra no longer works here. Sandra was very difficult and I understand tenant's complaints about 2400 Penn from a couple years ago. But now, things have gotten a lot better. Vonni and Jeff are great and easy to work with. I have zero noise through the walls, but there is some noise through the windows. A lot of students live here, but I have never experienced an issue with ...Full review of 2400 Pennsylvania Avenue

Finally leaving! - I moved into this building because the rent was cheap and the great location; those are about the only two good things I can say about this place.

Below are a few things I would suggest thinking about before renting a place at the Windsor House. - Pest infestation: This apartment building is crawling with cobkroaches.

Rude - Typically, when you are looking to move in, or actually handing over your check, they couldn't be nicer. Then the facade fades away and the usual rudeness is commonplace. Three calls to the corporate office went unreturned. Corporate should focus on management training instead of their bottom end. There seem to be better choices in the area. ...Full review of Ellicott House
