Very satisfied with the Diplomat. The location is great, right across from Meridian Hill Park and within easy walking distance of U Street, Adams Morgan, Columbia Heights, 14th Street, and even Dupont Circle. The building is cleaned from top to bottom every day, units areā€¦Ā See More >

    I absolutely love living in the Diplomat. Flor is the friendliest and most helpful manager and the maintenance staff is amazing. It's also a great location with close proximity to public transportation if you ever want to leave Adams Morgan.

      Overall, a great community to live in. Metro is a little far but not too far. Staff is always courteous and prompt in assisting with any issues. Leasing Manager is the nicest person! Great value for location. Great for young professionals..

            Love my spacious, sunlit studio. If you're lucky enough to get a unit overlooking the park, I would recommend you scoop it up! While it is a bit of a walk from the metro, there are several buses down 16th and I can walkā€¦Ā See More >

              The Diplomat is a wonderful apartment building and staff in excellent location in DC near markets, parks, metro, and fun sections for going out to dinner, drinks, and dancing. I would highly recommend for professionals, individuals, and young couples.

                I would absolutely recommend living at the Diplomat, after living elsewhere throughout DC, MD and VA. It is an older building and not very fancy, but very well maintained by a professional and friendly staff. And the location can't be beat!

                  The management at the Diplomat are exceptional: caring, quick and easy to work with! I cannot recommend this complex, apartment, and management enough. The location is amazing....great access to shopping, the park and everything great that living in DC has to offer.

                    This apartment complex is fine. However, noise is a HUGE problem. It's right on 16th Street so traffic noise is to be expected, but my main beef is the groundskeeper who uses a leafblower at like 8:00AM...EVERY. SINGLE. MORNING. The sound from a leaf blowerā€¦Ā See More >

                      I have rarely been dissatisfied with my experience at the Diplomat. I have recommended the building to multiple friends looking for a new apartment as a relatively cheaper, yet high quality service community. I would appreciate an email notification of the monthly breakfasts!

                          The Diplomat is a very clean, friendly, calm and well located property in DC. The rent is reasonable and the service provided is great. Any problem, ask the staff and it is fixed in the day. I love living here, I highly recommend this building.
