I have lived at the Meridian at Carlyle since the building opened(three years). It has the best location in Alexandria. The metro station is two blocks away and is a pleasant walk. What I like is the fact that a grocery store is being built right next door. I walk to Old Town with my friends and we actually feel comfortable. There are several areas in Alexandria that do not seem safe. We have never experienced any unsavory characters in this section of town.

The staff is super friendly and always helps with everything. The difference between this building and other apartments that I have lived at is the staff. The management and leasing staff are the best. They hold functions for the residents frequently. The maintenance staff fixes problems usually within one to two hours of calling it in.

The only thing that is somewhat bothersome is that with all the construction projects nearby, the traffic has increased from what it once was. But I guess that is to be expected if progress is to be made.

If you want to live somewhere where you matter and are not just a resident but a friend, rent here!! The price is worth it.

Just Curious. What areas of Alexandria are truly unsavory?
