Value for Money; Non DC vibe.

The best part of living here is that one GUTS bus stop is right outside the building campus and another at the Rosslyn Metro Station, which is a 8-10 mins walk. The only problem about living here is that the neighbourhood becomes dull after 8 pm. The management is responsive but strict. There are amazing amenities included in the rent - gym, swimming pool, pool table.

Great place for a law student!

I love living at River Place South. It is clean, safe, and close to campus. Word of caution - there are 3 other buildings in the River Place complex and not all are in the same condition as RPS.

Great experience

I really enjoyed touring the building. My tour guide was very helpful and knew what she was doing.
Very nice community
River Place is well situated in Roslyn with convenient access to the metro and Georgetown and the Mt Vernon trail

I highly recommend VeryApt.

Only affordable Studio in Rosslyn

The buildings and complex are old but fairly well kept and renovations are a regular event.

The gym is in my build and excellent! The pool is amazing in the summer, I just wish it was open earlier and later in the year and later in the day.

The management is responsive. I have a landlord who owns the apartment and I rent directly from her.

This complex is the only place you can get a studio for under $1800 in a managed complex in Rosslyn. So if you like the idea of a gym, pool, common areas, mail room etc... this is the place for you!

The biggest problem is the lack of a thermostat. I have no control over when the heat is on, when the AC is on and can't set the temperature any time in the year, other than using my windows to allow air in and out. This has become really annoying in warmer winter days and cooler days in the spring and fall.

Gets the job done!

Adequate, old building. Many units privately owned. Staff and management have been helpful. No control over thermostat.

Good apartment community with the potential to become much better

River place south is a good apartment community to live in. The amenities are nice and the concierge is helpful. They could do better on a couple of fronts: sound insulation - sometimes the traffic can disturb sleep, and free parking for visitors (I shudder to invite friends who drive).

The views of the Potomac from my apartment are amazing.

River Place

Pretty good location and the front desk ladies are the best! A little expensive for outdated kitchen and bathroom. Management company is horrible. They refuse to turn on the AC/Heat until everyone complains. Overall pretty good living situation, will probably not stay longer than a year. Can easily get something completely new for just $100-$200 more.

Rosslyn Reviews

98 reviews
As a Georgetown student, the location can’t be beat...especially at this price. Less than 10 min scooter from campus. Metro station a few blocks away.

However, this has been a business district for ages. There is very little going on around here and many of the restaurants don’t even open on the weekends. But, that’s changing. So stay tuned! (Also, I like living in Virginia because my vote counts for more here!)
Rosslyn is the place to live in DC if you study or work in Georgetown/Rosslyn. Good Connectivity to metro/bus, Good Coffee & food options. Safeway/Target/CVS in the neighborhood. Rosslyn Metro can take you wherever you want to go for Party/work. The only thing i don't like is the expensive rent.
Really nice and quiet at night, because it's primarily an office area. Great fast casual food options that are go-to places for people on their lunch break. Very clean and safe.
This is the quiet part! Clarendon, one stop away, has a good nightlife. There is food all through Rosslyn, Courthouse, and Clarendon. I love living in Arlington!
Calm, Safe, Close to Metro, not very far from Whole Foods, Organic Mom, Fairly good restaurants nearby.
Lots of restaurants, bars nearby, close to school.
My building is a 5-10 minute walk away from both Rosslyn and Clarendon, which are really fun areas for food, shopping, and just wandering around in. I know there are some people that don't super love walking that far, but I've never minded. The Prime is right across the street from an AMC which is delightfully convenient, and has a couple of nice restaurants nearby. It's also adjacent to the Arlington Courthouse, which means there's a large police presence in the area. That's always made me feel safer, but I also know that it can make people feel uncomfortable.
The neighborhood is extremely safe and well-lit - you will never feel scared walking home at night or anything like that. You will be walking distance to Safeway and Target. There are also plenty of casual restaurants and coffee shops: Panera, Starbucks, Cosi, Chop't (salads), Sweetgreen (salads), Little Beet (healthy food), District Taco. The Rosslyn Metro and DC Circulator are in this neighborhood and can take you anywhere in DC that you need to go. The Rosslyn GUTS bus is also right near the Metro stop and takes you to the Georgetown campus.
