Nice, Well-Lit Apartment, Great Management
January 15, 2024I had a 1BR on the 5th floor. Apartment was well laid out with a large bedroom. Lots of windows and good heating/water. Some of the faster elevators you'll see for an older building. The management was incredibly professional--great response times and the staff made sure to meet your needs. It does get a little loud with ambulances going past 16th St and Florida, but the walls between the apartments are thick and I never had issues with neighbors. Would recommend living here.Review from Apartments.com
Great building and friendly staff
November 22, 2021Would absolutely recommend this property! The Washington House is in a great location, walking distance to Dupont Circle (red line) and U St (green line) metro stops, multiple grocery stores, Adams Morgan, and 14th St. Beautiful view from the rooftop. Up-to-date appliances in the units and a laundry room on every floor. All of the staff are very friendly, and the front desk is staffed 7 days a week. Building is kept extremely clean (didn't see a pest once the entire time I lived there), and ...maintenance is responsive to requests. The only cons I can think of are that there are no real amenities (other than a very small in gym the basement with dated equipment), and that moving in/out was a hassle, as residents are required move furniture into/out of the building through a narrow staircase out back on Florida Ave, rather than through the front door.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Amazing living experience, cannot recommend it enough
October 22, 2021Immediately fell in love with the heartwarming experience, from the apartments and the picturesque location to the welcoming people who keep the place up and running. These are some of the perks of living at The Washington House: - breathtaking rooftop view - nice architecture - well-kept apartments - a ton of commodities (dishwasher, bath tub, washing machines, dryers, and even a gym) - vibrant neighborhood - accessibility to relevant places (park, metro and supermarkets) - near 14th street food ...corridor in case you want to eat out - near Adams Morgan in case you want a fun night out - within a walking distance of the White House - staff is SUPER niceRead MoreReview from Apartments.com
Building and Location are Very Good, Management is Great
December 17, 2020-The building is kept very clean and well-maintained. -Of all the interactions I have had with the staff, almost every single one has been positive. Similarly, the management is scrupulously fair and even a little bit generous. This is a HUGE difference from other landlords that I have dealt with in DC and makes everyday life much more pleasant. -Malcolm X/Meridian Hill Park is a wonderful green space with a great history. -You are within 5 minutes walking of Adams Morgan and U St, 10 ...minutes of Dupont and Columbia Heights, 15 minutes of Shaw and Mt. Pleasant. Harris Teeter is a little less than a 10 minute walk a way and Trader Joe's just a little more than 10 minutes. Hana Market is less than 5. Tons of amenities close by as well. If you work downtown, there is an S1/S2/S4 bus stop literally right in front of the apartment and an S9 stop 2 minutes away. Unlike certain other streets in DC that are basically parking lots during rush hour, traffic does move on 16th St, so these are great commute options. A couple of issues -The apartment is located at a busy intersection and close to a police/fire station, so there is a lot of noise. -Many of the floor plans are fairly small compared to what you can get nearby(e.g. 1BRs of around 600 sq ft). -The fixtures in the apartments are somewhat on the cheaper side, but fortunately maintenance is extremely responsive whenever you have an issue. I would also note that the management owns two other buildings (Hightowers and Park Square), which have different attributes that might fit what you are looking for better. I looked at units in those buildings and highly recommend those as well! If you want to be in Dupont and/or live super, super close to a grocery store, Hightowers has Safeway and Whole Foods both less than 5 minutes away. Park Square is on a significantly quieter street and Park Square has notably larger floor plans available.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Great Place to Live!
December 15, 2020I lived in Washington House for over a year and it was such a pleasurable experience. Not only is the location SO GOOD, but the staff is so helpful and friendly. Whether it's printing requests or maintenance requests they will do it for you. And maintenance comes SO fast! I've never had any issues living here and honestly I am sad to leave.Review from Apartments.com
Truly a Wonderful Home
August 30, 2020Washington House was my home for two years, and if I didn't have to move away to be closer to work I think I may well have stayed still longer. The property was homey and comfortable to live in of course, but above all I think it was the genuine attention of the management staff that made Washington House what it was. They were friendly and responsive to my needs and questions, and I felt they truly cared about the quality of the living space. I found the building's location just right for ...living with both comfort and good recreation. All the high-quality and many personality-filled shops and restaurants of Adams Morgan were within walking distance, as was my favorite spot for quiet time and greenery, Meridian Hill Park. Public transportation was readily available nearby, with a bus stop right outside, Capital Bikes stations within two blocks, and a Metro station a little farther down.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Best Living Experience
July 19, 2020I had the absolute best living experience while living at Washington House for three years! My 1 bedroom apartment was super spacious and had a great layout. The common areas are great - including the rooftop with phenomenal views of DC. The best part of living at Washington House was their staff and management! Everyone there is kind, helpful, understanding and their goal is to keep their residents safe and happy. Which they did! I truly loved every moment of living at Washington House and ...will miss living there.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Spacious & Sunny Studio
February 29, 2020I've loved living in this apartment for the past two years. My studio was very spacious with lots of east-facing windows with views of the Washington Monument and downtown. One of the bigger/more usable kitchens for a studio that I've seen. Plenty of storage. Would recommend.Review from Apartments.com
Best apartment building on 16th street
May 23, 2019Washington House is absolutely the best building in the neighborhood, hands down. I was in a hurry to move in and the entire team was so helpful getting the unit ready essentially overnight and answering all of my questions. I lived there for almost four years and every interaction I had with the team was phenomenal. It's a small enough building that you you really get to know the staff and can feel comfortable asking questions, and they're always ready to help even on evenings and weekends. The ...move out process was a breeze, and unlike lots of places you don't feel like you're being financially penalized for every little thing. It really feels like a family owned company that cares about its tenants.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Such a great building!
March 29, 2019I had a wonderful two years at the Washington House. The management team is personable, responsive, accommodating, and acted with integrity. Truly, every experience I had with WH staff was helpful and pleasant. Great apartment layouts, big soaking tubs and walk-in closets, very clean common spaces, beautiful roof deck, pet-friendly, excellent location, good value for the market. If I hadn't had to move out of town, I'd still be there!Review from Apartments.com
Best apartments, best management, best location
February 20, 2019I cannot say enough good things about my experience living in The Washington House for the last four years. I'll begin with the people who work there. The management is the best I've ever had, but the bar for apartment management companies is so low that saying TWH's management is the best doesn't do it justice. So I'll say this - the managers and staff at The Washington House provide the best customer service I've ever had from ANY business, ANYWHERE. If you need pointers on how to decorate your ...space, Tony can help. If you need something fixed, maintenance will be there the same day, often within minutes of you sending an email. If you need help hanging shelves or pictures (well beyond what's expected of maintenance staff), they'll be there, too. I spent several months on crutches, and without ever asking them to, staff would bring my mail and packages directly to my apartment, knowing it was hard for me to carry things up from the lobby. The people who work at TWH know all their tenants by name and go out of their way to be helpful and make your life easier and your experience in the building more enjoyable. And, when I got a new job in another state and had to pack up and move seemingly overnight, TWH helped me find homes for my furniture, plants, and everything else I couldn't take with me. Again, well above and beyond what's expected. The people who work in the building keep it impeccably clean, open the doors in the lobby for you, collect and send out your packages, and keep the building running smoothly, but they do so while feeling like they're your friends. It's clear that they enjoy their jobs and their tenants. The staff, quite simply, are extraordinary. Further, the apartments are gorgeous. They're clean and well laid out and have incredible closets and big windows, and even the studios have a big kitchen area (bigger and better than other studios). The walls and floors are also thick enough that I almost never heard any of my neighbors, and they're located in the best part of the city - two blocks from AdMo, two blocks from the 14th Street strip and U Street, across the street from a big beautiful park, and an easy and quick (and very pretty) walk downtown (or bus ride - several buses pick up from outside the building). I absolutely loved everything about living here, and if I hadn't had to move out of DC, I'd live in The Washington House forever. Great apartments, great company, great people.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Should be called Mediocre House
October 29, 2018Pros - Great location for the price, nice rooftop (view of the Monument), Brian (front desk manager) was a nice guy and went out of his way to accommodate your needs/requests, maintenance was responsive within 24 hours. They allowed me to change apartments since the first one I was in was terribly noisy on the street side. Cons - Homeless people sleeping in the lobby (and instead of hiring late night attendants they asked that we be mindful of who we open the door for). If we have to be ...security then our rent should be reduced. Roaches, trash isn't always taken out so the hallway smells sometimes, the weekday evening shift lobby attendant has the personality of a wet blanket, the weekend day lobby attendant likes to sing loudly around 9am so you can't sleep in if you live on the lobby floor. Extremely noisy neighbors and thin walls. Neighbors above me smoke cigarettes in their apartment so I can smell it at random hours of the day. The building is strict on leaving an umbrella in the middle of the hallway but not strict on noisy neighbors at all. The building showed my apartment without notifying me while my dog was out and about in the apartment. They said they'd take my apartment off the market until I move out. I go on this site and see my apartment is still listed. The staff who work inside the leasing office never speak and I mean NEVER.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
