Amazing Location, Clean, No Frills

Cannot beat the location. Apartments are clean, simple, and updated, but definitely not high end. Maintenance requests have been taken care of quickly. Enjoy the security of 24 hour strict doormen. Great value, especially given the location, w/d in unit, and dish washer.

Mount Vernon Plaza Apartments

The location is unbeatable - super close to the Mt. Vernon metro. For the area, the value is pretty good - not as cheap as splitting a walk up with like 5 other people, but not bad at all. But, you pay for what you get - very few amenities and the quality of the ones that you do have are "meh" at best.

On the other hand, the maintenance team is great - always responsive and willing to help. Management is okay - the office hours aren't great to actually be able to talk to a manager/etc; some policies are silly.

Front desk staff can either be super friendly or mildly terrifying and frustrating.

Overall it is a good place to live! I'll continue living here for the near future - but if I was able to move into a chill walk up for cheaper I would seriously consider it.

Reviewed by Washington DC Resident living at Mount Vernon Plaza
I love the location - pretty close to everything you want - shopping, entertainment, restaurants, bars, public transportation, etc. I also like the residential feel of the area, unlike apartment buildings down in Chinatown. Unfortunately, there is some higher rates of car break ins and robberies in the neighborhood, due to a relatively affluent population adjacent to lower income areas. Additionally, there has been a crackdown on prostitution in the area - I saw a few women in the early morning hours, and I am glad the police are focusing on this issue. Other than the normal problems of lack of parking, a very attentive police team writing tickets, I love the area!

As previously mentioned, the neighborhood is great with lots going on, tons of restaurants and the Safeway right next door. Super accessible to everything, especially since we're a 5 minute walk from the Gallery Place metro (red line).

I really love Mount Vernon Square as a neighborhood. It is really close to the national mall, great restaurants, shopping, and you have access to multiple different metro lines.

Lots of restaurants, multiple grocery stores nearby and right near 14th street. Metro is a bit limited outside of the green and yellow line but bus lines are very accessible

Safe area close to Chinatown to the east (union station past that) and then 14th street corridor to the west (dupont past that). You can walk almost anywhere in NW DC.

The area is growing so quickly! New restaurants and buildings are popping up all the time. It's also very easy to get any part of the city from the neighborhood.

I enjoy having tons of restaurants and bars around---from neighborhood pubs, to fast casual restaurants, to sit down joints, to cafes. There's a lots to like.

#1 way to describe living downtown/mt vernon square is convenience. There's a 24 hour Safeway, I can walk nearly everywhere, and always feel safe walking.
