If you are part of the younger cohort and are social, then this apartment is a great value. It does not look as fancy as other brand new apartment buildings in the area, but it is also not quite as expensive. The pool, gym, club room, and other amenities are solid. Its location is almost unbeatable, being within a 15-minute walk from the blue/orange/silver lines and a 5-minute walk from the red/yellow/green lines; every metro line is accessible. It is also close to the bars and nice restaurants in Chinatown, and being close to the Verizon Center is great for any sports fan. Lastly, the maintenance has been great. I have never had an issue with my refrigerator, washing machine, washer/dryer, etc. When the HVAC needs to be serviced (once per year?), or anything else for that matter, such as a clog (my fault), the turnaround time is very quick.

Great place to live, super social, good amenities! Great location!! Have to have your key to get into building which is nice and their is a man downstairs so you feel safe. Very young population so it's greta for young people moving into the city. Awesome rooftop too for entertaining

Good apt but bureaucratic management. Raise the rent too much each year though. They will try to raise it by $100+ dollars. Many of the units in this building arent really an option because they are right on the street (first and second floor apartments) or they are facing either the homeless shelter or the subsidized housing and creepy alleyway.

Great building with nice amenities. The price is a bit high but you get lots of storage space for a city apartment. Nice downtown spot with great access to public transit. The building backs up to a an alley and another building so it doesn't have great views from one side and it can be a little loud at times.

This apartment building might as well be called College, cont. because 90% of the residents are just a year or two removed from university. It can get a little loud of weekends but the location and value make up for it.

Fantastic place to live in an excellent location. Lots of students and young professionals and the rent is pretty reasonable.

The Meridian houses many recent college grads as well as law and medical students. It is in a great location in the city--close to the national mall, Chinatown, as well as many restaurants and bars. The commute to McLean is roughly 45 minutes on the metro. While the apartment building is not as glamorous as some others in the DC area, it is a great price, especially if you have a roommate to split the rent.

The Meridian is an excellent location! The price is fairly affordable compared to other options, but the units run on the smaller side and the building is a bit dated. The front desk/staff is super friendly, but management can be a little harder to work with.

I live in the sunroom of this apartment. Overall, I enjoy living there. It is very close to the Verizon Center and multiple metro lines, as well as a variety of restaurants, gyms, grocery stores, etc. In general, maintenance is handled promptly and efficiently.

Wonderful place to live, I have enjoyed my years here. Perfect for transitioning to the city from elsewhere or from your college or university. Young building that will keep you active, meeting people, and social. Perfect central city location for all other activities.
