Bader Condominiums is 7 minutes walking from GW and the Metro. It’s also right outside the Georgetown neighborhood if you want to take a run through the water front, go see a movie, shop, or take a relaxing walk. The building is well kept with a mix of renters and owners. The supervisor is very responsive to resident concerns via phone and email. Washing & drying is available in the basement of the building. There is also a rooftop and courtyard in the back that can be rented out for private gatherings. If you have a car, you have to become a DC resident pay and for a street parking permit (Zone 2) through the DMV. There are 1-year and 2-year permit renewal options.

The Bader is a great building: it is well run by the super and staff, clean, relatively quiet, safe, and has a great garden and rooftop (with an awesome view of Georgetown and VA). It's close to a bus stop, metro stop, Trader Joe's, and the University. However, there is nothing immediately around it: you have to walk about 15 min to Georgetown, AdMo, Du Pont, etc.. Overall, and awesome place for a grad student, not someone looking to party.

The Bader Condominium is in walking distance from Georgetown, GW, the metro, food/groceries, and even dry cleaning. The building is well kept. Routine maintenance is done regularly with timely communication sent via email beforehand by the building supervisor. My neighbors are quiet and friendly. It can get noisy on occasion during weekends, especially when the undergraduate students come back for school, but it’s not intolerable. I live on the first floor near the elevators and building entrance, so I expect more noise than the average tenant. It is a pet-friendly residence but you wouldn’t know with how clean the building is kept. There’s a mix of condo renters (like myself) and condo owners here making for a wide age range; however, it’s mostly working professionals. You have to pay for street parking if you have a vehicle and parking availability is generally good except during big holidays and events in DC.

The Bader Condominiums is kept extremely clean which is great since it is pet friendly. One thing to note is that pets are allowed for condo owners and not renters. You also must get a residential parking permit if you have a vehicle. Reciprocity permits (for temporary out-of-state/student residents) are not allowed. These are the only drawbacks I have with the residence.

The building supervisor is very responsive and keeps excellent communication with residents on any building maintenance work or issues. There are a mix of renters and condo owners here from different age groups and backgrounds. Everyone I’ve met so far is very friendly as well. There is also a cute patio with grills and tables and a rooftop that you can reserve for private events when you want. Most importantly, I am a seven-minute walk from Ross Hall on the GW SMHS campus.

The building is maintained very well and the on-site super is very helpful, both before and during the move-in process as well as on a day to day basis. Building has a quiet garden and a roof deck with a great view of the river and Georgetown. The building is, from what I can gather, mostly working adults and graduate students, which makes it very quiet (even on the weekends). Easy access to Trader Joe's, Georgetown waterfront, the FB Metro, and GW Campus, but very far from more social neighborhoods.

I really like the apartment I'm living in, albeit it is a bit pricey for the space size. The landlord is very attentive and accommodating, as is the super in the building. I would be sold on staying in the apartment if dogs were allowed (landlord, not building issue).
