Penrose Square

This is a great place to be, as it is only 20 minutes from AU, and 15 minutes from DC. There is a Giant Supermarket inside of the complex, along with a business center, swimming pool, gym, and exotic lounge. The only problem is that the building has fire alarm issues. I would advise someone considering to live there to read a good amount of Google Reviews on the complex and make a decision from there.

Penrose Square Apt

I moved to Penrose Sq. Apartment at the start of this school year (I go to GW in DC) and LOVE living in Arlington. It really is the best place Ive ever lived. This is the first time that Im living on my own at my own place and Im very happy. The complex is super nice. The gym is convenient, and there is plenty to do and eat in the surrounding neighborhood. The aptartment itself is very clean with new appliances. Management readily available. Highly recommend!

Absolutely lovely place to live. Lots of food options in a highly diverse neighborhood.
Reviewed by GW Med Student living at The Whitmore
Been built up a lot in the last few years with a Harris Teeter in walking distance. Lots of metro bus lines right outside the door with a shuttle to the metro
Reviewed by Scalia Law Student living at Myerton
Quiet and residential. A little ways from any restaurants or grocery stores, but there's good bus transport and Capital Bikeshare nearby.
Reviewed by Washington DC Resident living at Siena Park
Nice and diverse neighborhood. Up and coming. Safe and convenient. Lots of options for food and drinks. Close proximity to DC and Tyson's Corner. Lots of new construction.
Reviewed by Georgetown Resident living at Dominion Towers
Lots of stuff nearby, including grocery store, coffee shops, movies, restaurants, fast food, diners. Convenient to walk to some of these places.
Reviewed by Scalia Law Student living at The Wellington
The neighborhood is very family friendly. I can walk, bike, or bus easily to the metro/Pentagon City mall or bus/bike to the law school. Walking distance to fair assortment of restaurants, grocery store, pharmacy, etc. on Columbia Pike. Neighborhood is dotted with parks, tennis courts, short bike path, and other recreation.
Reviewed by Scalia Law Student living at Dorchester Apartments
It is safe and has growing businesses, but sometimes can feel removed from university life and more blue-collar.
Reviewed by GW Law Student living at Dominions Arms
Safe and friendly neighborhood. On a busy street, so the neighborhood is mostly behind the complex. Even then, the suburb behind the complex is small before you hit another highway. Very easily accessible by car, not very much by metro. Also, that accessibility comes with the cost that things do not feel very walkable in most directions. Living here almost necessitates having a car.
