The location is good if you commute by metro. he building is maintained decently. it took forever to get someone come and fix the radiator leak. the drying fan was left in the apartment for over a month. rent increased more than 10% after one year. overall, it's probably the cheapest place in downtown silver spring (all the new buildings are at least 20% more expensive), so you get what you pay for. Moving to VA-you get a lot more bang for your buck in the orange line corridor.
Also, parking has become a major issue-they will give you a parking decall, but it's impossible to find a space after 7pm. If you end up parking on the Giant parking lot and are not out by 9am--you get towed. Major inconvenience.
Also, make sure you hire professional cleaning people when you move out and keep the receipt. No matter how clean your apartment is, your deposit would not cover the so called damages. one more thing, I know it's in the lease, but I just want to make sure you follow through--give them at least 60 days notice before you move out--if you are late-they will charge your ASS off.
Overall, this was probably the worst apartment complex I have lived at.
