I really enjoy living at Avalon! There's a fitness center, an Amazon Hub, 24 hour concierge, a rooftop, and the building is close to the Van Ness-UDC metro station and pretty close to campus. I enjoy my unit because there's a lot of space, natural light, a gas stove, lots of storage, and a bathtub. Some issues I've had is that the building (at least my unit) is somewhat outdated and there have been some issues with cockroaches in the past (I think that's most of DC though), but the building was quick to send someone out and the other positives outweigh those drawbacks. Overall, would highly recommend this building because of the amount of space for the price, it's proximity to campus/metro, and the super friendly concierge staff.

It's a good place in a very good, family friendly location. 6 minute walk from a Red Line metro stop is extremely useful and there's plenty of shops and restaurants around. A little pricey, but friendly staff and good neighbors.

Good apartment complex in a family friendly location. 6 minute walk from a Red Line metro stop with several stores and restaurants around. Little pricey and a few pests are my primary complaints, but the staff is friendly and responsive.

Water pipes exploded in the floor and maintenance did not properly repair, leading to several types of mold-- including black mold-- to grow in the apartment. The black mold made us so sick that we could not continue to live there. Management refused to admit there was black mold, even with a positive professional mold test, or repair it. Management once forced me to vacate the apartment with zero advance notice, in my pajamas. Our lawyer and property management negotiated an agreement for us to simply leave and receive the security deposit back. Management breached the agreement and refused to return the security deposit so we were forced to file a lawsuit and ultimately we received a substantial settlement through court mediation. I am not sure if management has changed in the approx. 3-4 years since, but it is not worth your health or safety to find out.

Avalon The Albemarle is conveniently located near metro and bus stops, and is also easily accessed by car. For someone who commutes out of the city and into MD, I have no trouble getting where I need to be. The staff at the Albemarle is wonderful. Their office is always responsive to my inquires, and I love stopping by the front desk just to chat with the concierges. All maintenance requests have been attended to in a timely manner, generally within 24 hours. The apartment is spacious and well-maintained. I'm so happy that I moved in here!

My apartment is really great. The front desk staff is really helpful. Close to everything you need with the grocery store, cvs, metro, bank and gym nearby. Also politics and prose nearby. There is also a gym in the building which is super convenient.

This apartment is very nice. I would highly recommend living there. The apartment staff is friendly and always eager to help when I have any issues. The interior is luxurious, spacious, and updated. Kitchen is a plus. The apartment is close to metro!

Apartment experience has been good - the apartment is situated in a perfect location and is in a very safe neighborhood. It is located right next to Rock Creek Park and minutes away from the metro. Staff have been helpful, although our apartment has not been renovated for many years and many things are outdated.

This apartment complex has been great. The front desk is always very nice and they have free coffee/tea in the mornings. It is located near the metro so it is easily accessible. There is also a gym in the basement. Overall, this is a wonderful place.

Living at Avalon is perfect for me. Located in Van Ness, I can walk and take the shuttle to AU or jump on the red line or a bus to go around town! The apartment is spacious with a massive living area. Great for sharing. I feel really safe around the neighborhood.
