Great value, convenient location, pet friendly

Cathedral Heights is a great location: very safe, quiet, not too far from campus. Lencshire House is great for pet owners. The rent is reasonable and utilities are included.

Low frills apartment

Good, low frill apartment. Management was OK within the building but completely inaccessible higher up when I had billing issues to resolve with the property manager. Friendly front desk, friendly maintenance. No gym, paid parking underground, nice roof top.

Overall, pretty good.

Very good for the location. The building is old and some apartments could use renovations. However, it's right across from the cathedral with lots of bus stops (N2, N4, N6, 30N, 30S, 37, 96, etc) and only a mile and a half from Tenleytown. As far as city living goes, it's not too bad. Management is friendly and very responsive.

Okay for what it was…

Ok for what it was, had one of the better apartments. no amenities, management was impossible to get in contact with. i was probably charged a bit below what they could have charged for the unit, especially with all the new developments happening around me.

Great Location & Great Management

We love living here! Yes, the price is more than we'd like to pay but the pool, staff, roof-top deck and location are amazing. We have had quick turnaround from the maintenance folks and the landlord (and her team) seem to know everyone by name! It's a great place!

Reviewed by AmericanU Graduate Student living at Idaho Terrace
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.
Reviewed by AmericanU Graduate Student living at Skyline Towers Apartments
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.
Reviewed by GW Law Student living at Chancery Apartments
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
