Best Cheap Double Bedrooms In Washington Near Me

Anushka Chakravarty: We stayed in a Blueground apartment in Georgetown, Washington DC for 9 months across 2 adjacent apartments. The apartments were very practical and stylish (4 star) but maintenance was variable (2 star) and customer service was generally very poor (1-2 star). On the one hand, Blueground offers what very few other companies do by providing a fully furnished apartment including bedding, coffee machine, kettle, toaster, TV, bluetooth radio, basic products etc. Everything was nicely designed and it felt spacious. However, there were a number of maintenance issues in both properties. In the first property we did not have a functioning oven for the first month of two. In the second property we had a number of issues over 7 months (broken drawers, oven, lamp and dryer; poor shower pressure; unstable lock). Some of these were really inconvenient and given you pay up front, it can feel like Blueground has you over a barrel. Whilst Blueground does sometimes resolve these issues quickly, the quality of work was generally not very good and often the issues kept coming back. Other times, it was very difficult to get issues resolved. For example it took us 3 months to get our dryer issues acknowledged and the dryer replaced. Customer service was the worst part of our customer experience with Blueground and on the whole very poor with a few individual exceptions. Left hand doesn't seem to know what right hand is doing. Some examples: 1) When we left our first apartment, we agreed to roll the deposit over to the second apartment rather than having to process the deposit twice. On leaving our second apartment, Blueground tried to say we had never paid a deposit and initially refused to return the deposit we had paid for the first apartment, worth nearly $1000. Only when I disputed this, produced email evidence and asked them to prove return of our original deposit from the first apartment did they accept they were still holding these sums. They then tried to withhold money for stains on the couch (which had been there when we entered the property) and for insurance which was apparently not paid up front along with anyone else (but we had no warning/communication about). This cost was hidden in the terms and conditions so be wary and clarify all this as it really does feel like Blueground is always thinking of ways that it can get more money out of you rather than do everything to make your customer experience enjoyable. 2) When we were trying to get more serious maintenance issues addressed, there was a general unwillingness to believe us or escalate issues to resolve them. I had the most frustrating email exchange I have ever had with anyone over our dryer where it felt like I was talking to a chatbot who was simply not listening to the issue that I was raising and constantly only answering one part of each email. It doesn't help that there appear to be shared email boxes with different people answering emails, which leads to lack of continuity. The conversation went round in circles for months. Great apartment but the company seems riddled with poor admin and a cost-cutting mentality so you will need to advocate for yourself and keep careful records of what you have paid/agreed to in writing.

Brooks Hamilton: I recently moved out of Connecticut House (after living there for 1 year), and was very pleased with my stay. The apartments are huge & the walls/ceilings/floors are concrete, so noise is not an issue. Bugs/pests are also not an issue, as the supervisor, Juan Prado, is on top of EVERYTHING. The staff are fantastic, & each staff member makes me smile as they are great people, in addition to being great employees. I would highly recommend Connecticut House to anyone looking for affordable, spacious, NICE housing in DC. You will be well taken care of :)

R.M. Fareed: If you're a fan of cockroaches, you're in luck! In a given week, I would kill about five to seven cockroaches -- and those were just the ones I got! The hallways and trash chutes always had roaches, and I avoided throwing recycling out at night because that's when the rats and roaches got really active. The water pressure in the building was quite poor and spiders and little bugs will make their way into your apartment through small holes in and under the walls. The prices were somewhat reasonable and the rooftop had a great view with some nice seating. Most residents were students and while some could get quite loud, it's nothing too out of hand or disruptive at all. It may also be worth noting that Daro Management also offers financial incentives for its residents to leave reviews on Google, AptRatings, and Facebook.

Cynthia Gross: Trellis house really is a beautiful building and in a great area in terms of transportation convenience. The leasing team is great (Banessa was super helpful throughout the application process), as well as a few concierge staff. I really only have 2 complaints. The structure of this building seems to have been poorly made. The walls are so thin, you can hear word for word conversations from neighbors. There are “quiet hours” in place but some tenants either don’t respect this policy or don’t realize how loud they are. There’s also daily smell of smoke in the hallway even though this is a non smoking building but this is not as big of a concern for me. The leasing team has been responsive and helpful in terms of dealing with my complaints (particularly Claudia has been extremely nice and accommodating) but the issues persist. If you are sensitive to sound, I would not recommend this building. Otherwise moving in was super easy with full access to the dock, the amenities are great, building is clean, location is great, apartment appliances are good, maintenance turnaround is quick, and receiving delivery/packages is super convenient with 24 hour concierge.

Brandon Rogers: My time at 1900 Lamont Apartments was great! I loved how close it was to various restaurants and retail locations as well as the zoo! Would definitely recommend to future tenants looking for a place to stay.

Montana Nelson: I have lived here for almost a year and it has been an awesome experience! The staff is so nice and so helpful - especially Iysna!! :’) Such a lovely place to live

Derek Kruger: Make sure to use ʜoᴛᴇʟʙoʟʟʏ.ᴄᴏm when booking a place. They compare hundreds of booking websites and normally will have prices much cheaper compared to others! You're welcome :)! This hotel is one of the most well known in this area. I've been coming here for a very long time. If you stay for a few nights you for sure won't regret it. I had a fantastic stay at the Residence Inn in DC/Capitol. I was pleasantly surprised at the cleanliness and amenities in the rooms. The ladies at the front desk were very kind and extremely helpful. They explained everything amazingly and made our stay very enjoyable! The hotel was within walking distance from the main attractions. I highly recommend this location and will return to this location in the future.

Taylor: I have loved my time living in these apartments. I couldn't ask for a better location or community to live in. I never hear my neighbors which was great when I was working remotely from home. They are also super pet friendly which was an important aspect for me. I feel super safe living in this area!

Qorah Thorner: I was scheduled for a virtual tour at 10am with Kayla Smith. I called 10:15am because no one had reached out to me. She apologized and said she forgot to call me first thing this morning to cancel. She said they were short staff and wouldn’t be able to do the tour. I told her I understood. She offered to reschedule the virtual tour for later that day at 3pm. I waited for a FaceTime that never happened. I called at 3:10pm and no one answered the phone. I am very upset because I was very interested in touring the unit. But this shows me the lack of customer service and lack of communication. There was no respect for my time. I will take this as a red flag and not bother renting or corresponding with them anymore.

Margarita Bronshteyn: I definitely recommend renting at 1630R!!! My husband and I lived on the 5th floor from Aug 2018 through March 2022. When the pandemic hit, we spent a LOT of time at home and are so grateful to have been in a place we loved so much. The location is fantastic, the space is airy, light-filled, and new, and the management, specifically Emmett Jafari is kind, attentive, and responsive. Having a gym in the basement finally motivated me to go (occasionally) and being able to pay and check laundry from an app was super convenient. The only reason we moved is because the rent-controlled monthly rent allowed us to save up enough money to buy a condo! We had a really great 3.5 years at 1630R and moving is definitely bittersweet.

Charles Hopkins: This building is the best close to Giant CVS and Starbucks my three favorite places. I love the building because everyone seems like they are friends. The manager Tangela is always joking around with us and smiling. Mike the maintenance man is the man for real he will fix your stuff in your apartment in 5 secs. I recommended this building to everybody.

Evan Stephens: This is a really amazing community. Now that the building has finished all the renovation, it offers something for everyone. The basement has a gym, bike room, and laundry room, both secured. The historic building looks beautiful and the maintenance manager Hector is extremely rapid with dealing with any kind of problem. The front desk staff is friendly and professional, and available 24/7. The location is extremely convenient - 1.5 blocks north of the Cleveland Park metro, 2.5 blocks south of Van Ness. Right on the L1 and L2 bus lines downtown, it's possible to get to work in rush hour in 30 minutes. Near all the restaurants and bars and shopping in Cleveland Park, and near Rock Creek Park itself - a beautiful tiny little park is actually right in the building's backyard. I particularly like joining the runners that go up and down 34th street from Tenley to the Observatory. A real gem, not to be overlooked.

Chrissy Steigelman: Do NOT live here. I'm currently counting down the days until I move out. The building is basically made out of cardboard, you hear every single thing your neighbor is doing. My current neighbor above me is completely nocturnal so I usually get between 3-4 hours of sleep each night. Staff doesn't really do anything about it either. The noise from the street is pretty horrible too. The apartments are definitely not worth the price.

Lilly Petruzzi: The Ave is a great place to live. The amenities are lovely and the people who work at the Ave are so kind and warm. I've been able to develop personal relationships with the staff, and that has really made the Ave feel like home. Location is great too. Overall would highly recommend living here. One piece of advice-- if you're a light sleeper, make sure to not get an apartment facing the hospital! There can be sirens that might disrupt your sleep. Rooftop pool area is super nice, and I regret not using it more.

Natalie White: I have had a terrible and discouraging experience with the Maple View Flats leasing team. I have submitted my application over a month ago and have received ZERO follow up. You are never able to get in touch with the leasing office via phone, they always transfer you to their third party information collections team. The team promises that someone will get back to you from the main office but it never happens. I have personally went up to the leasing office to try to check on my status in person, but they always claim they are between staff due to turnover. They promise to follow up, but never do. The run around and lack of communication has given me has been completely unprofessional. I highly recommend applying elsewhere.

Alyssa Sciannella: The room was perfectly clean and had everything we needed. The staff was kind, friendly, and helpful when we arrived. We were given clear instructions about self parking, which was helpful. The breakfast was better than expected, and had gluten-free options to accommodate my food allergy. At check-out, the doormen were kind enough to stack our belongings on a rolling cart and bring it out to my car without us having to ask. They really went above and beyond to make us comfortable.

Madeline Katsarelis: I love everything about living at the Rushmore and could not recommend it enough. This is mainly thanks to the amazing staff and the excellent location. The management team Sam and Keith are so dedicated to their jobs and do an exceptional job of quickly handling all problems and communicating efficiently. The building itself is brand new (built in 2020), modern, kept clean, the residents are overall quiet, and the appliances and features are new and high-quality. The penthouse lounge and rooftop are really nice. The neighborhood is safe and friendly with a lot to do and easy access to the rest of the city. The Rushmore is located within walking distance (less than 10 minutes) to grocery stores, metro stops, and amazing restaurants. Overall, The Rushmore is an amazing place to live in DC! Thank you so much Sam for everything!

Kevin Smith: If you hate hot water and love an unresponsive, uncommunicative, incompetent property manger, 2112 New Hampshire Ave. is for you!! We have our hot water shut off typically once a month for "repairs" with little to no notice. It's been going on for about 3 years now. What are these repairs? Who knows! The property manager has never truly elaborated on what needs fixed or when it will be fixed. Also, the hot water just sometimes goes out for the entire building. For hours at a time. Most recently it was a Friday evening to a Saturday afternoon. Thankfully, it hasn't been a full day (yet). I'm sure this review will get a response like every other Google Review (great priorities, team!), meanwhile my neighbors and I will continue to be ignored.
