It is only a mile from AU, which was my primary reason for choosing it, and it has been great. I feel safe walking to campus from here and at night. It is quite residential so there are often people walking around with dogs and exercising. The only downside is the bus routes from here are a little far, besides the D2 which is directly outside of it, but access to the red line or other bus routes requires far walking or transfers. Don't live here if you want the more classic busy city vibe or immediate access to bars/cafes/stores right outside your door. Laundry is clean and building is quiet.

Agree with below review that the construction is unbearable; unsure how much longer I will be able to live here given the conditions. If you work at home there is little recourse to escape the onslaught of distressing noises and building management offers nothing in the way of solutions. Would not recommend this place if you want a quiet home. Mgmt also ignores problems (like elevator disrepair and terrible air conditioning) in favor of aesthetic choices.

Do Not move into here until the exterior facade construction is over! It is highly disruptive and there is little transparency about why/when this will all be over. Workers are repelling up and down the building, making all sorts of noises, during the entire work day. Nice building separate from that but cannot recommend living here until this construction has been completed.

Great apartment

As a first time DC resident I am very pleased with living at 4000 Tunlaw. The unit is very spacious and one of the best values in DC. It has a beautiful pool area and 24 front desk attendant. One negative aspect is that it is not very close to the metro, however, easy to use bus lines nearby.

Great apartment with a pool, dry cleaning, food mart, excellent 24/7 concierge. Easy walk to bars, restaurants, grocery stores, and activities. Good for children and singles. Great for older adults. Laundry in building uses automatic cards which is very easy to maintain. Clean!

I love living here, but it's very much an older crowd. If I was trying to make new friends, I wouldn't recommend it, but its quiet and in a great neighborhood. It's an older building so some of the units are a bit outdated, but there is a pool and overnight security.

Nice place, pretty quiet, lots of retirees. Pool renovation should be finished may 2015. about 1 mile from school, easy walk or bike ride. Building managers and staff are a little bit nosy but otherwise I have no complaints.
