We have loved our experience at The Saratoga thus far. From the beginning, the leasing staff were responsive and helpful and that has carried into our lease with the concierge staff as well. This is a great location to be in walking distance to metro, a grocery store and a few restaurant options along the way. The neighborhood is wonderful with the park and tennis courts close by so there are always families and action going on. We love our apartment with all of the updates and the courtyard even has little herbs that the residents can use. So happy with our decision to live here and couldnt recommend it more to people!
The gentleman at the front desk was extremely rude to me. I’ve never been to this apartment building before. I was delivering food. Mot once did he say hello or how i was doing. Seemed like he had an attitude. When i left he didn’t speak nor did I. I asked him his name he didn’t give it to me. I’m very nice and have manners. It’s extremely unacceptable for him to treat me that way.
Great dinner and service!Best steak I had in a long time! Our waiter Alejandro was super and so professional! Just a pleasure all around! We are restaurant industry people and totally impressed from beginning of our our meal to the end!The Italian waiter came by for a chat and also totally made our night. All around great and we are looking forward to coming back again soon.Thank you!Kudos to the owners!
My husband and I have really enjoyed the nearly two years weve lived at Saratoga. The maintenance staff and desk staff are super attentive and quick to respond to requests. The common areas are kept clean and well-lit. The gym has some good features and for the most part neighbors are quiet. The management hosts nice get togethers throughout the year--not too many so you feel overwhelmed. The renovations over a year ago have really made it a nice place to live. The few things that annoy us are mostly manageable: people steal grocery carts from local stores and leave them in random areas of the building, the grills in the common area run out of propane quickly (always a good idea to check before you plan a cook-out) and they have weird rules about using the back gate, which would otherwise let families use the nice playground right behind the building.
I love living here. A major selling point was the nice kitchen you can actually prepare a meal in (counter space!). The building is quiet and well maintained. The leasing, front desk, and maintenance staff are fantastic. Our minor maintenance requests have been addressed really promptly and professionally. The gym is the best apartment building gym Ive used. It actually incentivizes working out. I love having the washing and dryer in unit. Its the first place Ive lived that had that and I am surprised what a difference it makes. There is a coffee/espresso maker in the lobby and they just got a fizzy water maker! Picking up packages is a breeze. My husband and I hang out on the lovely, peaceful patio often. We were saying living here feels like being at places weve gone on vacation to. We lived in Woodley Park before, which we really enjoyed, and I was a little worried that this would feel further area from work and DC attractions. But I actually feel this might be a better location. I love being close to Bread Furst and Politics and Prose and still near the park, including Soapstone Valley Trail. Having Giant and CVS on my walk from the train is also a huge time saver. We are moving because I got a job in another state, but Im sad to go. I feel like all the conveniences and pleasures of living here really perceptibly improved our quality of life. I guess my only constructive criticism would be on the state of the bike room, which has a lot of room for improvement [check out the one in The Brandywine next door :) ]. And one thing I cant comment on is rent increases because we only lived here a year - that was something I was concerned about because this building is not rent controlled. But overall I cant recommend living here enough - I swear did not get asked to write this :D I just know how harrowing looking for housing in this city can be and it is such a relief to find somewhere good, no tricks.
Wallet stolen and staff did not help recover! Landan is top notch! Thank you! God bless you in Jesus name!!!
Management is unorganized especially about parking
