The Meridian is a great option for young professionals just starting out in DC and probably not making a great salary yet. Sunrooms are a great option to help divide up the rent a bit more, as they are really just small bedrooms with glass sliding doors. Words of caution though if looking at a sunroom, there aren't any air vents inside and it gets very drafty in the winter.

The Meridian is a wonderful place to live. Great amenities including a gym, pool, grills, spin/yoga studio, club room, etc. Free coffee in the lobby every morning. Offers get togethers for breakfasts/lunches in the club rooms. Underground parking...

I lived in the Meridian Courthouse for a year as a grad student. Its proximity to Metro, DC, and the Arlington social scene was unparalleled. The concierge service was great because they drop off your packages inside your door. Free coffee in the AM and the gym and pool were also great. My only complaint is that for a graduate student, rent was expensive...but that's just DC in general.

A large multi-building complex that has recently renovated nice apartment but attracts a very young crowd of people. Walls tend to be very thin so a lot is heard through apartments. Age of residents also contributes to the amount of noise around the apartments. Very college like feel as many are recently out of college.

Overall not great. the unit i am in is old and outdated. I think it is in serious need of an update, especially after seeing updated units that pay the same price for rent as me. Overall not great.

Meridian at Courthouse Commons is conveniently located right off of route 50 and about a five minute walk to the Courthouse metro station. Many of the apartments have "sunrooms" that people live in, making the overall apartment a bit more affordable. As such, the tenants are on the younger side, which can be nice if you are in that age range, as well. Our unit is a bit older, but management is pretty responsive with any issues we have.

2 blocks from the Courthouse metro stop and right near the police station makes it a safe location. Indoor gym, outdoor pool and grills along with a putting green. Very young crowd which can get rowdy on the weekend. The management can be awful but has gotten much better in recent years. Great price for the location and amenities; new rooms come with hardwood and stainless steel appliances for negligibly higher costs.

I love this place cause its cheap if you turn the sunroom into a bedroom. I wish there were more places like this. I also love that its super close to the metro. This is the ideal place to live if you are short on cash and dont want to spend over 1300 in rent each month per person.

I love my apartment at the Meridian! My one bedroom (with sunroom) feels very spacious and the updated appliances make the place feel modern and updated. Its a great place to call home. I love the courthouse neighborhood as well because we have a lot of bars and restaurants nearby, but it is still quiet and has a great homey feel. We are only about a 4-5 minute walk from the metro and two stops into DC on the orange or silver line.

The Meridian offers newly renovated apartments for a fair price for the area (don't get me wrong, it's still expensive, but more affordable than other apartment buildings close by). The apartments have a great layout, many come with a walk-in closet and a sun room. Most of them have hardwood floors and even a Nest, a nice little detail that adds a lot of value. The amenities (a pool, 2 club rooms, a squash and basketball court and a gym) are very nice and we use them frequently. There are a lot of college students, but also some elderly residents, overall a good mix. Cats are allowed, but no dogs.
Management and especially the leasing office lacks, but don't let it keep you from moving here!
