Great for the price

Safe area. Nice neighborhood. Right next to a bus stop. All utilities included in price, so you know exactly what you pay every month.

Just 1 con I can think of is: the AC/heating. You can't control the speed or temperature. The only control you have is opening/closing the windows. So expect it to get too cold in summer or too hot in winter. Basically, you need blankets and to crack the windows a tiny bit round the year. It's manageable though.

Building supers here can be very moody, which can be an adjustment for internationals. Just be confident, know your rights as a tenant and pay on time, you'll be golden.

Cheap and Nice

This place is a great value. Lived in a HUGE studio by myself at a super low cost for DC- No frills - older building, old appliances, older bathroom. But it got the job ton! Tons of storage and closet space, huge window which gave off good light, clean common areas.

Pretty Good

I wish there were more amenities (roof access) or there was more communication between the management and the residents. A front door buzzer was installed months ago, but I still don't have my access fob and it still isn't linked to my phone to enable me to buzz guests in. Overall it is a great place to live-a little pricey, but for location and size it is a good value.

Cathedral Heights Reviews

I live within walking distance of the university, and half a mile from a grocery store. There is a bus stop right outside the building. The neighborhood is safe and quiet.
An easy walk to school, and an amazing view of the national cathedral. Grocery shopping and restaurants are just a couple blocks away. The 33 bus line is very accessible and consistent. The only problem is that it is a 20+ minute walk to the closest metro stops (Cleveland park and Tenleytown metro stops).
A nice neighborhood with a Giant grocery store, CVS, salon, several restaurants, a Starbucks and bus transit. A nice area, though quite expensive for DC, which you will notice in the clientele that pass through and in the rent prices. Great proximity to the university and bus access to Tenleytown, Glover Park, Friendship Heights, campus, Georgetown and Farragut Square. Other parts of DC are more difficult to get to. Very safe area, though you will occasionally be begged for money or bothered riding buses (though this is the case all over DC MD and VA frankly).
Mclean Gardens is a great little spot, a few restaurants, close to grocery stores, and very walkable!
I went into this a bit on my apartment review. I love living in an actual neighborhood. There's always kids and dogs running around so it feel super safe. I like the front yards, trees, and gardens - definitely doesn't give off the "concrete jungle" vibe. There's not a lot of traffic noise and everything is pretty well maintained. There's some gorgeous Embassies near by which are stunning to look at. Great area for jogging (if you're into that) and right by American without feeling like you live in a dorm.
It seems like if you live or work at AU, this is a great neighborhood for you. Also if you work on the N2/N4/N6 route and want to be sort of tucked-back into the semi-suburbs but won't be bothered by college kids, it's also a great neighborhood for that. Mass Ave South of campus is basically all apartments for a few blocks so that really is the neighborhood. Not that it's not a great neighborhood if you're not involved with AU, but since I went there, most of the people I know around here are affiliated with the school.
Relatively peaceful, quiet, and green neighborhood that’s not too far away from the bustling and louder college residences or town markets. Very walkable, close to the wooden trail, and easy access to transit.
It’s been pretty safe - I think living next to Homeland Security and within AU’s campus helps keep me aware of any potential threats or safety concerns in ways that I wouldn’t if I didn’t live here.
