Claridge is a co-op, so each unit will look different. I like my unit; it was updated recently so the kitchen and bathroom are relatively nice. I have a really big closet space for a studio apartment. The location is great, it's close to school but not right next door like some other housing options may be. The street is nice and quiet, and the front desk concierge and management are kind. Haven't had any issues with rats/mice/bugs.

I have lived here for a little over two years. When I first moved in, I had a lot of issues with my landlord. The apartment was dirty, my carbon monoxide alarm kept going off, it needed to be painted, etc. But once I got all of those issues figured out, I haven't had a problem. My apartment is small, but super user-friendly. It has a huge closet and a giant window. The rent is great for this area, its a quick walk to Whole Foods, the metro, and the GW Law building. The building could do things to be safer. There is a scan-in on the front door, but pretty much anyone can get past it. There is a scan in on the doors before the elevator, but they only activate at night.

Good Place for 1Ls

The room is spacious. The kitchen is relatively small but good enough to satisfy my cooking needs. There have sometimes been plumbing issues, but the apartment is very quick about conducting repairs. About a 10-15 minute walk to GW law.

This building is really nice. There is a concierge at the front desk 24/7 and you have to use a key fob to enter into the building, so it feels very safe. The amenities are also relatively good, there is a gym, laundry, pool, and a courtyard. Each apartment is owned by a different individual so some are nicer than others. The apartments are not very big, but they aren't terribly small either. The only issue with these apartments are the thin walls and doors. if your neighbors are making noise, you are going to hear it in your apartment.

The apartment was spacious and the doormen were friendly. The heating was too hot and the A/C not cool enough (ancient system), the building has mice and shows its age (early 1960’s) with creaky floors and thin walls. Management is awful.

The building is well maintained. The maintenance and management staff are responsive. Having a front desk to collect packages is nice. Utilities and amenities are reasonable. Many GW graduate students live here because it is close to the GW campus. The building is just blocks away from a Trader Joe's and a Whole Foods, and Georgetown is right nearby. The Foggy Bottom Metro is also a 5 minute walk away.

Claridge House

The management of Claridge house is excellent. Central heating is a plus and electricity and gas included is nice as well. Probably one of the more well blended units in terms of residents with a wider range of ages living here, however it can still skew towards GW undergraduates/post-grads which can make for some noisier units.

Good place, but dated. Work is constantly being done on the water, we can barely control the heating/cooling, and some parts of the apartment are falling apart. Great front desk, and generally spacious with decent amenities.
