Dittmar Company

I have lived here for 1.5 years and I absolutely love it! It is very comfortable and spacious. I love living in Arlington because it is a quick 10-15 min drive to GW and I have the option of taking the metro if I wish.

All my maintenance requests have been fixed within 24 hours. It’s very clean. I never hear my neighbors. The gym is nice. It’s just a little expensive. Also there are only 5 guest parking spots for the entire building.

Great location, friendly staff, have never had any issues with the apartment management or staff. Clean and safe property. Recommend!

I have really enjoyed my experience at Birchwood. This apartment is newer than others I toured in the area, and I love the counterspace and big living room window. The only thing is that one of the bedrooms does not have a window (which is my room).

No complaints at all just expensive

No complaints, just expensive...

A bit far from campus but the location is good and safe.

I have lived at Randolph Towers for a few months now, and though it is more expensive than I would like it to be, the building is very nice and I have had no issues with my apartment. The building was recently renovated, so it has nice appliances, laundry in unit, fairly well soundproofed walls, and balconies. It is a secure building, safe area, and very close to the Ballston and VA Square Metro Stops. I like that it is also walkable to a few grocery stores.

My apartment has plenty of space. It is safe and has lots of restaurants near by. It is right next to the Ballston metro stop which makes it easy to commute to GW.

Dolley Madison Towers provides a relatively cheaper housing option per bedroom than most places in the Arlington/DC area. There is a gym and a pool included in rent. The building is well kept and maintenance groups are very responsive.

It is only 15 minutes from Georgetown University front gates on a standard day.

Primary drawbacks are the location. The building is walkable to Shirlington, which has a great selection of restaurants, bars, and grocery stores. However, outside of walking to Shirlington, you’ll have to drive most other places. There is a bus on the block that takes you to metro hubs in pentagon city, but is not ideal for efficient commuting.

Love the Amelia!

This is a really great apartment building. It is clean, and has everything you need. Although it is expensive, it is definitely one of the more affordable options for the newer apartment buildings in this areas. One thing I do not like about this building is that there is no roof top space. There is also only one community room, so it can be hard to host large get togethers.

A very welcoming community and close to school so I don’t have to have a car and can walk or use public transportation.

Richmond Square has been great. Maintenance is always fast, it's not too noisy, and it's in a great location. Haven't had any major maintenance issues, and the minor issues I've had have been solved quickly. There is a doorman 24/7 and I've always felt safe here.

However, the apartment doesn't allow pets unless you have a service animal. There is no pool, but they just re-did the gym and community rooms. There is also free printing.

Mixed feelings about the property. Overpriced, but what isn't in Arlington? The apartments are not modern or updated but are clean. The closets have amazing storage and shelves. However, there are no pantries which is an issue. My largest issue with the property is although it is pet-free, due to ESAs there are still animals. Which wouldn't be an issue but for the last 2 years our upstairs neighbor has been borderline neglecting her animal which barks and cries throughout all hours of the day. The building has done nothing more than issue a warning to them. Before resigning to a significant rent increase, we asked if we could switch to a new unit since the upstairs neighbors were also renewing. It is a great location, and as a corner unit we have amazing natural light. However, we are moving out because we'd like to be able to sleep or study without constant noise. Also the elevators keep breaking and have even dropped with people inside.
