It’s very affordable with a few roommates. It is not a party apartment complex. There are lots of small children and elderly people.

First, the apartment gives a 5% discount to grad students, which I like. I love the culture of this apartment complex and how kind all of the neighbors are. There is free coffee from a very nice coffee vending machine every morning/afternoon and the location of the apartment is great in the heart of downtown Bethesda near the metro. The kitchen is better than most kitchens in D.C, with garbage disposal, microwave included, ice maker, and dishwasher. Also, you only have to pay rent and no utilities (including central air!!). Some qualms are that the apartment only offers carpet studios, and the studios are also very small for the price. The floor plan is not open so even with standard square footage, the living space is very small. There is also not much storage space in the kitchen and in general.

I've lived in 20+ apartments in TX, DC, VA, and MD and this is by far the best. I was so lucky to get into this building at a semi-affordable rate because of the Montgomery County program for people moderate incomes. This place is so nice, the location is great, everything you need is walking distance or a bus/Metro ride away.

Palisades is in the middle of everything. There is always someone at the front desk so I feel very safe. I really like how the utilities are included in our rent. Some of the higher floors probably pay a lot more, but it must be worth it. There are so many places nearby in downtown bethesda.

Love living here. Great area and value! The staff is always willing to help out.

After living in downtown DC for so long, I wanted a change. Bethesda is a great neighborhood with lots of restaurants and shopping. There is a good mixture of families, professionals, and pet owners. The building is beautiful with a spacious kitchen and bathroom. the management is super friendly.

This building is incredibly luxurious and is in a great location in clean, safe Bethesda. The gym is great and staff is responsive when you need something. I don't like paying $140 per month for parking, but that's the only complaint I have. I don't ever want to leave!
