Great deal, good location

I love the location of the Lenox Club. While it isn't the most up-to-date facility in the neighborhood, you can't beat the rent. If convenience, great floor plans, and friendly management are important to you, I recommend looking here.

The downside is the outdated amenities and small gym.

Great deal, good location

Lenox Club is in Pentagon City (National Landing) just a few blocks away from the blue/yellow line metro. Amenities are slightly older, but the floorplans are very sensible, and you get the best use of every square foot of the units, including great closet space.

Some units have dens, balconies, or separate dining rooms.

Very convenient on/off the highway. Easy access to DC, 10 minute drive to the law school.

Management is very friendly and there is a dog park across the street.

I would recommend living at Lenox club to another law student.

Excellent Lenox Club

My family has been living in Lenox for 18 months as of February and so far we quite enjoy our living experience here. We are so glad to have so much space in such a nice building with a gym, nail salon, massage studio, and lounges. Unlike other expensive building in Pentagon, Lenox offers competitive price and great location to Pentagon metro, public buses as well as the amazing Pentagon City Mall. Additionally, we like the 24 hour front desk service and friendly/responsive maintenance staff who always go above and beyond to assist with residents' inquities. Definitely a 5 star living experience!

A Good Start

The lenox club overall is a nice apartment. Management is always very accommodating and the front desk is available 24/7 and willing to help. Gym and Optional "gym membership like" classes are a plus. My favorite part is location I can see all of D.C. from my window and yet Im not stuck in the bustle of the city. I am a 5 minute walk from two different metro station and a mall. The Pentagon is basically across the street so all public transportation is available. The apartment itself is very spacious with large wall covering windows, has a moderate sized kitchen and dual closets. To my knowledge some kitchens have been upgraded. Crystal City is within walking distance for restaurants and bars. Pets are allowed, there is of course a deposit and a monthly charge but it isn't as steep as other places I checked out. The have a small pet area by the grills but it is big enough for dogs to run around. Only wish is that the gate was smaller. With a small dog I worry I will throw a ball and she will squeeze through the spaces. The only internet provider available is Xfinity, it is not through the complex but just for the area in general. It is fast though, no significant problems with it yet, even during storms it may slow down but never for long. You are charged for electricity and water. My water is anywhere from 30 to 40 and electricity I have seen as low as 20. There is a Harris and Teeter on the other side of the Mall about a 10 minute walk otherwise you can take a 10 min bus ride on the 9A and there is a Giant, a Shoppers, a Target,and just about every other store. Parking I have not utilized yet but I inquired it is about $75 a month I believe and guest parking has been a sore spot on other reviews from tenants that have lived here longer since it went from being free to a charge. However parking on the street is free from 6 pm to 8 am so its not a huge inconvenience if you time it correctly and pay the meter for anytime used outside of that period.

Love my indoor pool

My specific apartment has a great view of all of DC that I really enjoy. I'm looking forward to watching the fireworks from it on the 4th of July. It is super convenient to walk to the metro and the mall. I love being able to go swimming year round at the indoor pool. Free coffee every morning is really great too.

Getting around Pentagon City


Pentagon City Reviews

66 reviews
Pentagon City is nice and fairly quiet, which is good for studying. There are some students around but it's mostly families and working individuals. There's not a ton to do, but there are some nice places to walk, and there is a good array of restaurants. The apartment is close to a Harris Teeter and a Whole Foods and Costco.
Safe. Feels like a retirement community. Drivers stop to let you cross the street to the apartment.

For the metro, the ride itself is about 20 min. I just budget in extra time for walking and not wanting to arrive just on time. It shouldn't take 45 minutes to get to school unless they're doing maintenance. Then, add 10 minutes.
The Crystal City and Pentagon City area has a lot of restaurants and shopping in convenient walking distance. The area tends to clear out after 5 on weekdays, but is often busy on weekends, mostly with tourists. I have always felt safe walking alone in the area at whatever time of day/night.
There is not a lot of green space, unless you count Long Bridge "Park", which is a dead-end, cement "bridge" that looks over soccer and baseball fields with some views of D.C.
The location is great. It's a 7 minute walk to the blue line metro, and the total commute to campus is 25 minutes (when the blue line is running properly). An uber takes about 12 minutes and costs an average of $5 per ride (with uber pool). Pentagon City has just about everything you could need. There is a Whole Foods across the street, and the Fashion Center mall is right next to the metro station. There are restaurants, coffee shops, and convenience stores, and a very well maintained public park.
General vibe is 30-somethings wanting to settle down, lots of dogs. Not a huge social scene (which I'm A-OK with).

Pros:
-Very metro-accessible (blue/yellow, so can get into the city in multiple directions if there are delays)
-Walkable - easy to get to grocery store, Pentagon City mall, library, restaurants, etc. within minutes
-Quiet and safe, and generally well-lit in the evenings

Cons:
-I'd like to see a few more restaurant options. There are good casual dining options, like Naked Pizza, California Pizza Kitchen, and the mall food court, but besides Bonefish Grill there's not much a step up from that.
-I don't feel much sense of community, and don't know my neighbors. Not as diverse-seeming as other parts of DC.
The Pentagon City area is safe, quiet (except for big shopping weekends!), and well-lit. Grocery store (Harris Teeter) and tons of other shopping options for all other needs. The metro station is convenient to all area apartment complexes. Great green space/parks across from mall with lots of walking paths. Closest churches however are on 23rd St in Crystal City -- which is not too far of a walk in good weather!
There are dining and shopping options galore. A massive three story shopping mall directly across the street. There are multiple parks in the area and grocery shopping options are within a 15 minute walk. There is a public library nearby and many bus routes.
I like the neighborhood, lots of food options, close to a movie theater, and right next to a mall. Only downside is many of my friends live in D.C. and you can feel apart from the city often.
