Positive experience

Overall this has been a great place to live. Minimal issues, responsive maintenance, friendly staff, clean building. My main issue is that move in/out is only allowed Monday-Friday during regular working hours which is difficult and inconvenient for anyone working full-time, as well as a $500 move in fee.

Best location for AU students

I live in a studio by myself with a cat at The Greenbriar, and I think its the best place to live strictly location-wise for AU students. This is a bit ironic because I have done my entire degree & will finish it throughout the COVID pandemic, so the location doesn't really have any benefit for me, but based on what's around here I believe that its perfect of AU students. The building is quite old but doesn't feel dated. Wouldn't recommend to students looking for a newer building or something that's 'nicer' (no pool, gym, etc.) but I believe it does the job quite well. Management is really nice.

Sometimes, if the bus is unreliable, I end up walking home at night. I have never felt unsafe because Massachusetts avenue is always populated with other students and cars (don't push it if it's after 10 p.m., though, anywhere in the world as a young woman). There are many older people who smile and greet me when I walk outside. There are also tons of what I call the "Lulu lemon moms" in their athleisure running uphill with the stroller. Compared to other parts of DC, it is quiet and full of nature. If you walk two blocks east, you reach Wisconsin Avenue and it becomes busy and loud. If you walk a long block west, you reach campus, and it's also hectic. But this neighborhood is nestled in between and almost feels like a suburb.

Overall it's a nice and quiet area. In addition, it's quite safe with serious crimes being few and far between. However, it's somewhat far from the nearest metro station (Tenleytown-AU). Also, there are not many restaurants/bars nearby, so going out generally involves public transit, rideshare, etc.

Quiet area with lots to do. It's a good mix of college students, young professionals, and families. Pretty safe. The only downside is, while it has bus stops, there's no access to the metro. So if you live in this area you would need a car or be willing to have a fairly difficult commute depending on where you're going.

The neighborhood here is beautiful with lots of trees, places to walk, and access to the Georgetown waterfront. There are a lot of families that live here and elderly people so it's a little farther from some of the night life in D.C. but if you are willing to split a ride with friends or hop on the bus it is very doable.

A note: although the neighborhood is pet friendly, the building does not allow pets.

Overall, it's beautiful here and a nice escape from the craziness of law school life.

Relatively peaceful, quiet, and green neighborhood that’s not too far away from the bustling and louder college residences or town markets. Very walkable, close to the wooden trail, and easy access to transit.

Close to campus, Wegman's & Giant Food nearby, nice neighborhood.

Not all that walkable, restaurants are a little far

It's very quiet. If you're looking for more of a night life and action this probably isn't the neighborhood for you
