Great location and price

I love our place at Carriage House for the location and our particular unit. The building his few frills, but it's close to the blue-orange-silver line and all the fun of DuPont while being in a quieter neighborhood. The building itself is a little dated, but we save a lot by not paying for in-unit laundry or a gym which is worth it.

Ideal Location

10 minute walk to the Law School. Surrounded by cafes and restaurants. Relatively quiet for the downtown area.

Good location and spacious apartment but it's in the basement so I don't have enough sunlight and there are some cockroaches.

very enjoyable experience

Good building, new manager who I have not gotten to know yet. There are some mice in the building, which show up a couple times a year but there is a good exterminator. Very good lobby area. Pool in the summer but hours are limited. Minimal communal space available. Noise better since fire station moved.

Carriage House

The Carriage House is an unbeatable location just north of the Foggy Bottom Metro stop. The units are individually owned condos, so they can vary in how new the interiors are (my unit is NOT renovated). I would not recommend this building for anyone looking to live in a large, new apartment. We have had a few mice in our apartment, so if that is a deal breaker I suggest you stay away. The rent is incredible for the location and if your priority is living in a highly walkable DC neighborhood this is one of the best places you will find.

Great location, but mouse problem

The location is great. The building has a mouse problem that is minimized by management. They are difficult to deal with when it comes to addressing the mouse problem. The desk staff are generally helpful. The building is old but had been face-lifted.

Carriage House

The Carriage house has a great location to the GW campus, and close to Foggy Bottom metro. The building is nice but could be updated. Many nice restaurants are around and a very safe location for students. I didnt have any issues with noise issues and if you need to park, the parking garage at the Ritz is a good option.

West End Reviews

West End is fine. It's safe, there's easy access to transportation and plenty of supermarkets. But it's boring as anything - a neighborhood of hotels and office buildings. It's also overly pricey without really giving you much in return. As someone who had to move to DC on short notice - I picked West End based on location and little else - and I mostly came out of my time living here wishing I had done more research before signing my lease.
Safe neighborhood, great transportation hub with multiple bus stops less than a minute's walk from the apartment and a 5 minute walk to the metro. Some restaurants and bars nearby as well. Ten minute (at most!) walk to GW campus! My only gripe is that it's an expensive neighborhood but the apartment is competitively priced for the area.
The neighborhood is perfect. Ten minute walk to school, five minute walk to the metro. CVS and Walgreens just ten minutes away, trader joes just 3 minutes away, Whole Foods ten minutes away. There is a bus stop with a bunch of bus routes directly in front of the building. This neighborhood is also close to a bunch of other great neighborhoods, just a 20 minute walk to DuPont Circle and Georgetown where there are restaurants, bars, and stores. The monuments (the Lincoln) are only a 25 minute walk down 23rd street. There are numerous gyms nearby and the school gym is only a ten minute walk from the apartment. The area is probably the safest in the city and there is not a lot of noise over the normal city noise. It is next to the GW Hospital so ambulances going by can be annoying but not overly so. This neighborhood is great and close to every amenity.
I like the west end library and the l Trader Joe’s but other than that it is a little quiet and mostly filled with hotels. There aren’t very many food options either. It’s a close walk to Georgetown which is nice.
This neighborhood has everything a millennial needs - a CVS, Soulcycle, Sweetgreen, and great bars/restaurants. Highly recommend because it's quiet and really close to DuPont Circle and the GW Metro.
ONE BLOCK FROM TRADER JOES!! 5 min to Georgetown, 10 min to Dupont, 8 minute bike ride to campus. Bars & restaurants. Across the street from the dog park.
Hard to beat the Foggy Bottom area. Safe and close to everything you would need to be productive and have a great med school experience.
Some of the neighbors are great. It gets pretty dead very early here. There have been a few instances of intruders in the building.
