Small but cute

Too expensive!! It's small and in a bad part of town. Parking is horrible and it costs an arm and a leg. However, the security is not bad. We have had no issues or break ins considering the part of town we live in. They do accept pets for an extra 100 dollars a month.

Good Location, In a few years

Location is up and coming and so far so good. The price is a bit higher than one would expect for this location. Everything is nicely done, no problems with management or maintenance. Only complaint is the cost of rent here at $1800 for 1 bedroom could be less.

Great location, noisy neighbors

Love the location, all necessities are accessible by foot and and red line is close by. Only issue is the loud neighbors at all hours of the night when coming home from all the great drinking spots in DC. The complex is pet friendly wtih my cat and dog, the parking spots are abundant and secured. Overall this is a nice complex for young professionals in an up and coming part of DC.

Great place to live

I personally love the trilogy apartments. The management is responsive and nice. The amenities are pretty awesome - washer and dryer in unit, dry cleaning service, shuttle bus, pools in two buildings, and gardens in each building.There are some things I would like to change i.e shuttle schedule, however, NOMA is a great area to live in. It is developing fast and close to H Street. There are other apartments right down the block so I don't feel isolated. I do wish we could change the grocery store to a Giant or a Wholefoods. The Harris Tetter is not great.

Trilogy is a great place to live

Living in the Trilogy Noma Apartments has been great. The Apartments are spacious and the property managers/resident life team are awesom. The trash valet service is very convenient and keeps my apartment from looking crazy. I also enjoy the the proximity of the building to the metropolitan trail. Its been super convenient for runs

Can't wait to move

I have been living at Trilogy for 2 years. When I first moved, I was living in the 151 building and it was great. Clean, quiet, convenient. Then I moved into a 2 bedroom in the 200 building and its awful. The hallways constantly smell bad. Its loud. Numerous times I've called the elevator in the morning only to have it open up and be covered in pee or vomit. One morning there was diarrhea in hall for several hours. The BBQs never work. The pools are open Memorial day to Labor Day but they don't have enough seating. Dealing with the leasing office is usually a complete nightmare. On a positive note, gyms are nice and the maintenance staff is great.

Solid building in NoMa

New buildings, solid amenities. Management sucks. Relatively quiet. NoMa is up and coming which is nice, but it seems to be slow moving right now. Not many restaurants or bars. Solid proximity to metro and Union Market. Quick bus to U Street area. Good dog park.

Great for Pet Owners!

I've absolutely loved living at Trilogy so far! Best bang for your buck in the city when you factor apartment size, price and proximity to metro. In the up-and-coming NoMa area.

Residents vary but you'll find a typically young crowd. Residents actually utilize the amenities, which is nice.

It's particularly dog-friendly and have the shortest breed restriction list we saw - major selling point.

Though the price may seem high, they are always running EXCELLENT specials which reduce the cost dramatically. Definitely recommend.

Trilogy

Trilogy building is nice, but not near much. It's in walking distance to a Harris Teeter, Au Bon Pain, Starbucks, and CVS. Trilogy isn't a very social building so you rarely meet people. The pools are nice to lay out at. The main building is very nice. The gyms are small but you can get a good work out in there.

Beautiful building

A gorgeous building, great amenities, and right by a metro! Unfortunately the neighborhood is not quite there yet, as there aren't many restaurants around the area and you do have to go "out" to enjoy a night out. That being said, the amenities are amazing so you don't really have to leave!

NoMa Reviews

38 reviews
I don't venture too far outside of the few blocks of NoMa because outside of the neighborhood isn't as safe. However, the city has done a lot to revamp the area in the past few years, so there are new restaurants and bars opening up. I also live right across the street from the metro, which makes the rest of the city much more accessible.
NoMa is approximately a 35 minute commute to GWU. However, my roommate works on the hill which is less than 10 minutes away. There is a Harris Teeter connected to the building so you don't even have to go outside in order to shop for groceries. The area is still up and coming, so some of the surrounding streets don't seem very safe. However, it is getting better each and every day and it is easy to avoid those streets.
It's an up and coming neighborhood though I live in the very nice part of it. It's rough across North Capitol, but there's nothing over there to go to so I never run into any issues. There's a big dog park as well as plenty to do and eat at Union Market.
Neighborhood is okay. Everything is walkable. Bars/restaurants/grocery stores are super close by. Parking is usually available. Super safe (just don't go near the NY Ave Wendys after dark)
NoMa is up and coming - there are not too many places to eat/socialize in the evenings but the neighborhood is close enough to H Street that you don't feel too stranded.
It's growing like crazy but seriously lacks on the dining/nightlife portion. I like the geography and with the REI opening I'm hoping the nightlife will shift as well.
Fairly safe, though I wouldn't roam around a lot at night. It's certainly a transitioning neighborhood. Lots of people with dogs, big and small.
Noma is a cool area with young professionals mainly and has a lot of food/bar options! It's about 30 min from campus via metro, 20 min driving, (don't walk to campus). The apartment itself is super safe, as is the immediately surrounding area. But it isn't safe to walk west of the area or too far north either.
