Pretty nice apartment

This apartment is decent. I got one of the newly renovated ones though so I don't know what the older styles are like. I had brand new or like-new appliances.. The worst thing about this apartment is that management turns on the AC way too late into the spring so the apartments get SO SO SO hot and you can't do anything about it.

Nice but nothing good around

It’s very clean and nice and reasonably priced. Close to campus. But not really any restaurants or nightlife around.

Good enough to live here all 3 years of law school

Other than some pests, which Management sprayed for within 24 hours of my notification, I like my apartment enough to live here all 3 years of law school. The walls themselves are thick where you don't hear your neighbors but you do hear some activity in the hallway. I have a huge walk in closet, lots of storage space, and it's big enough for a couch, bed, dining room table, and two rocking chairs to comfortably fit.

No complaints, good access to campus

Nothing about living at Columbia Plaza would make me warn others against living here. It is a short walk to campus. It’s a quiet complex generally but you are free to make whatever level of noise you want. Maintenance does a great job responding to requests. Washer/dryer are shared with your floor, but it’s rarely unavailable when I want to use it. We are far from the good nightlife areas, but obviously Uber and Lyft were created for a reason! I would overall recommend this place to others.

Great value

Pretty nice apartment right near campus. All utilities are included, full gym on site. Right near metro, Whole Foods, bus stop, cvs. Not too noisy either.

Great Value

All appliances were brand new. Bathroom and kitchen were pristine— nothing fancy, but definitely worth the value. The maintenance crew works incredibly quickly responding to any issues you may have. WiFi was very easy to set up because they have a dedicated Comcast representative. Hot and cold water work great. Water pressure is great. The ONLY problem I have with the place is the elevators run extremely slow. Very small price to pay for the great location and service.

About Foggy Bottom

Foggy Bottom Reviews

260 reviews
Lots of pretty row homes, walking distance to many restaurants, grocery stores, and my school. Lots of trees and a dog park near-by. Overall, very pretty and scenic to walk through, and also close to other neighborhoods and essential stores.
I like living in Foggy, it's easy to get to school but also is close to Georgetown, which is fun for food and shopping. The northern part of Foggy (near GW) is about 10 minute walk to Dupont too, which is great.
Short walk to Georgetown, West End, and Dupont Circle. Many restaurants nearby and close to metro so you can get to anywhere in the city conveniently.
Nice to be so close to school. Short walk from the mall and other tourist destinations. Bar/restaurant/night life scene leaves a lot to be desired.
It is really close to campus so a lot of GW folks live here! You can reach a lot of places on public transit.
Edge of Foggy Bottom bordering Georgetown - very safe and peaceful!
I personally enjoy the quietness of the neighborhood and its location within a close walking distance of campus, Georgetown, the water, and convenience/grocery stores. The neighborhood is also very safe, I am a woman in my early 20's and I have never felt unsafe walking home late at night near my apartment.
Foggy Bottom is a great place to live given the proximity to the law school. It's also within walking distance of Georgetown and Dupont Circle which are fun places to go out with friends and classmates. It's also has lots of bike racks for the Capital Bikeshare nearby, and the Foggy Bottom metro stop is a few blocks up the street.
