Great location and good but old building

I enjoy living at the Elaine. The rent has been steady and we pay a good price for it. Since the management has switched over, we get quick service usually. However, for the first time ever this past winter we were out of heat for days at a time a couple times during the season. It was the coldest days of the year and the coldest days in years. I called the emergency line and they only had a couple space heaters and they were all used so we stayed in a freezing apartment with old, poor insulation. This probably happened because it's an old building, but it's still not acceptable when we're paying this kind of rent. It is, though, a great part of the city, right across from the National Cathedral and a block away from the new Cathedral Commons shopping area. Easily accessible buslines are also helpful. Overall, I enjoy living here, and it looks like they are doing updates to make sure things work properly.

Relatively peaceful, quiet, and green neighborhood that’s not too far away from the bustling and louder college residences or town markets. Very walkable, close to the wooden trail, and easy access to transit.
Reviewed by Financial Services Professional living at Alto Towers
I went into this a bit on my apartment review. I love living in an actual neighborhood. There's always kids and dogs running around so it feel super safe. I like the front yards, trees, and gardens - definitely doesn't give off the "concrete jungle" vibe. There's not a lot of traffic noise and everything is pretty well maintained. There's some gorgeous Embassies near by which are stunning to look at. Great area for jogging (if you're into that) and right by American without feeling like you live in a dorm.

It seems like if you live or work at AU, this is a great neighborhood for you. Also if you work on the N2/N4/N6 route and want to be sort of tucked-back into the semi-suburbs but won't be bothered by college kids, it's also a great neighborhood for that. Mass Ave South of campus is basically all apartments for a few blocks so that really is the neighborhood. Not that it's not a great neighborhood if you're not involved with AU, but since I went there, most of the people I know around here are affiliated with the school.

Cathedral Heights is a great neighborhood. It is close to a variety of bars, restaurants, grocery stores, and other useful resources. It is serviced by a variety of bus lines, but not any metro stops.

Because I've only been here during the pandemic I can't talk on the neighborhood too much, but everything is very walkable and has great restaurants and such.

It's very quiet. If you're looking for more of a night life and action this probably isn't the neighborhood for you

Very safe and lots of new restaurants popping up! Also very dog friendly. Walking distance to Giant.
Reviewed by AmericanU Graduate Student living at Chancery Apartments
An easy walk to school, and an amazing view of the national cathedral. Grocery shopping and restaurants are just a couple blocks away. The 33 bus line is very accessible and consistent. The only problem is that it is a 20+ minute walk to the closest metro stops (Cleveland park and Tenleytown metro stops).
