This size of the apartments is worth the price, but the condition of the buildings could be better. I know it's not management fault but the residents. (Not kissing up but stating facts.) Parking is better than most. There are a lot of abandoned vehicles that could free up space, But parking is still okay in spite of this. There are two each new washers and dryers for every two buildings that have eight apartments each. I have not had a problem with using them. The cleaning crew works every day but that doesn't help much but they try their best. The price you pay for living in the hood. And the location is awesome. It is on the borderline of DC and Maryland so it's convenient. Overall, I love my place.
