The Prime at Arlington Courthouse

Great building. Management is slowly renovating the entire building. One of the best gyms Ive seen in an apartment. Easy access to metro and close to rosslyn.

Great location

If you like me are looking for somewhere that is super quiet, the courthouse area is the best for you. Also it is super pet friendly although I do not have a pet myself. Make sure you're picking the ones facing east/dc area to avoid noise of the garbage truck in the morning and get more sunlight during the day.

Good location but ongoing construction

The apartment is roomy and in a decent location where the neighborhood is quiet, but ongoing lobby construction tends to create a lot of noise on a daily basis.

Reasonable Price, Excellent Service, Close distance from the School, Safe and Calm Neighborhood
If you are not very interested in Amenities, highly recommended! (No pool, small gym, but fairly nice garden and scenery.)

Pretty standard Arlington apartment experience. The apartments are nice, the staff is pleasant, and the location is solid.

A little more expensive but worth it

I love living in the prime. The staff is wonderful, the management is super responsive- any maintenance issues are usually solved within a few hours- and there are 2-3 community events a month, including free barbecues, happy hours, discount basketball tickets, and more. On top of all that, I'm a 5 minute walk from the metro and live in an area with a ton of really fun restaurants and shops. I also adore the apartment itself: The kitchen is amazing, with lots of counter space and cabinets, the living area is pretty big, and I have a nice bedroom. Garage parking is available but you have to pay extra for it, and there are no utilities included, but overall I feel that you're getting what you're paying for and it is very worth it.

Prime Apt

My apartment is spacious and has solid amenities. The gym is a little small but gets the job done. My roommate has a dog and the whole complex is dog friendly. Rent is pretty high (I pay about ~$1550/month between rent and utilities), but it's comparable to other places. The location is prime. Two blocks from the metro, closer to D.C. than the rest of Arlington, close to the Clarendon bar scene, and in the middle of tons of restaurants. I plan on living here again next year.

Good Apartment

Parking is 125 per month, which is super high, all other expenses are NOT included so need cable, internet, gas, electricity and water. There isn't a pool, however, it is very secure, great location, amazing views.

the prime at arlington

Overall great experience. They are quick to fix any problems with the apartment. It would have been nice to get some more support from the management company at times.

Rosslyn Reviews

135 reviews
Rosslyn is great, gets a bad reputation from the snobs that think they're better for living in the city but it's safe, there's lots of good food nearby and everything is close and convenient. If you're more relaxed and not big into always going out or wanting to be surrounded by movement I would definitely recommend living here in Rosslyn than directly in DC. American University isn't very close though, it's normally like a 10 minute Uber or a 45 minute metro.
As a Georgetown student, the location can’t be beat...especially at this price. Less than 10 min scooter from campus. Metro station a few blocks away.

However, this has been a business district for ages. There is very little going on around here and many of the restaurants don’t even open on the weekends. But, that’s changing. So stay tuned!

(Also, I like living in Virginia because my vote counts for more here!)
It's a great area as someone who is looking to live somewhere with easy access to popular sites but without having to live with the noisiness in the "center of it all." It's an easy walk to Clarendon (it's about 0.35 mi walk to Whole Foods, 0.7 mi walk to Trader Joes) and a quick stroll to the metro station (only about 0.2 mi walk). It's a mix of residential apartments and corporate offices, and is quieter but still with a strip of restaurants, coffee, medical offices, and nail/hair salons.
I loved living in Arlington (so much so that we're moving back after our lease is up in DC). The exact location of the apartment was not ideal - we were about a 15-20 minute walk to the nearest metro. If you could be right in Rosslyn (near the metro) I think it would be a great area for professionals. We will be moving out to Clarendon next - an area that is great for couples and young families.
I love it - it is right by Clarendon, which is a central area for bars and restaurants in Arlington. It is about 12 minute walk to the Rosslyn GUTS bus and a short uber into the heart of DC. About 1 minute walk to the Courthouse metro which is only one stop from Rosslyn and 2 stops from DC. Great restaurants and bars nearby, plus a ton of good shopping in the area. Great place to have a family and experience both DC and Arlington.
GU student notes: There are two shuttles that run through this area, one that runs 1x a hour around Arlington during rush hours, and one that runs every 10min during rush hour and 20 during off hours. There is no easy access to campus on the weekends so be prepared to UBER.

If you have long legs, renting a bike is an option. If you are like me and 5'1'', renting a bike is an option for downhill rides.

There is a lot within walking distance in Rosslyn (think 20 min average from my apt): Barnes and Noble, shopping, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's (also on the Arlington loop shuttle from GU), public libraries, CVS, Target, Safeway, lots of restaurants.

Also close to dense populations of immigrant communities if you like Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean food.
The area is very safe and close to many stores and restaurants but the community is defined by white privilege. There is not much character to the area and it is difficult to find interesting people around. I absolutely LOVE that I'm within walking distance of a Trader Joe's. I wish there was more interesting cuisine and nightlife though. Nightlife in the area is an extension of immature fratty college life.
Pros: Close to Metro station with three metro lines, new Target nearby, close to several jogging and biking trails and parks, walkable to Georgetown restaurants

Cons: Neighborhood shuts down after 5pm. Few restaurants in the neighborhood itself (this is getting better though). Concrete canyon effect because of the skyscrapers. Closest grocery store is an expensive Safeway.
