Average good

10 management rating Reviewed by on

It has 24 hours access control system, package room, public meeting room, a little gym and parking place. It’s near to the Trade Joe’s but is a little bit more far from the UW campus where you need to go for 15 minutes from the apartment. You can also choose to take a bus which is convenient.

A Place That Needs Work

1 management rating Reviewed by on

I have now lived here for two years. I will start with the pros and end with the cons.

Pros: The location is excellent! I live near the transit center and can easily access the Red Line and/or the buses. It takes about 40 minutes by train and about an hour via bus (so you can study on either).

The apartment is relatively updated, with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen has a nice amount of cabinet space, and my bedroom has two closets. I also have a balcony with a lovely view of the DMV. Finally, I have a den space that I use for studying purposes and virtual meetings.

I cannot hear my neighbors; maintenance does a decent job of fixing most problems.

Downtown Silver Spring (DTSS) is a nice area that is a city away from the city. It's easy to find restaurants, grocery stores, medical appointments, and recreational activities.

Safety is decent, but the front desk must stop letting everyone in.

Lastly, I like that we have a lounge on the 21st floor, 24-hour gym access, and a pool on the rooftop.

Cons: Management is very slow to answer calls. We had a roach infestation this summer, and it has taken nearly 4 months for the problem to be resolved.

Communication with the office is tough in general, and using the phone number is not effective, so it's better to go to their office.

The apartment has security cameras that need fixing, and the garage door breaks every few months.

There are four elevators, and it's unlikely that one or more will not work regularly.

Currently, the gym code is not needed to enter the gym, which is a security issue.

With all of the problems, the rent is not really worth it anymore. It is expensive to live here, especially on a medical school budget.

Overall, it's not the worst apartment, but it's not the best. I would not recommend it after my second year of living here based on the unprofessionalism of management.

Horrendous and Unsafe!

1 management rating Reviewed by on

The absolute worst place I've ever lived ! I would not recommend anyone, with or without kids, stay here. The woman in the front office is absolutely spiteful and will terrorize you with what little power she has out of total malice. They have dissolved any sense remnants of security and are now towing residents vehicles if they park in front of their own building instead of paying the extra fee for the ungated parking garage. And they charge $10 a day for GUEST PASSES that will absolutely not keep you from getting towed. I am still currently awaiting my reimbursement for wrongful towing, and it's been WEEKS ! they send back your mail "mistakenly" and have not accountability whatsoever. You are across from the metro, which i guess some view as a positive for some reason, however, it just brings all the trash from md over with an untraceable escape route. It's absurd. They also pay to send in addicts that are actively tweaked out on things to document your vehicle and habits when you park in the garage. It's truly slumlord living. Please do not give them your money

Great price

It’s a distance from Vanderbilt, but it’s a great price. I feel safe and it’s conveniently located as long as you have a car.

Nicest apartment I've lived in with a gym, pool, concierge. Also cannot beat the short walk to JMEC, HUP, and Presby.

Good Apt in UCity

9 management rating Reviewed by on

If you want to live closer to campus, this is a great option. Domus has spacious apartments, nice amenities, free parking, and frequently runs 2-months-off promotions. As a disclaimer, most Wharton students live in Center City, so this is a bit out of the way. But it’s a short walk to all the MBA hotspots in Center City and the proximity to campus is great. If you’re looking in UCity, I’d definitely recommend Domus!

Good Value for Location (Still Exensive)

7 management rating Reviewed by on

Overall, I've had a great experience living at 1301 Thomas Circle. The value is relatively good for the area, and the pool and refreshed gym equipment are excellent. I strongly disagree with how much they charge for parking ($275, claiming it's the "market" but the garage is mostly empty). Otherwise, the management and staff are friendly and attentive and maintenance comes quickly.

I’ve had a great experience living here so far! It’s a spacious living arrangement that is newly remodeled in a very quiet area. The one downside is rush hour traffic can be bad some times especially in the afternoon

Quiet and Cozy

7 management rating Reviewed by on

My partner and I really enjoy living at The Hunt Club. It is a VERY quiet complex with access to great amenities. The maintenance staff and leasing office have been amicable as well. It is also within walking distance to some great family owned restaurants and a Trader Joe’s. Our only complaints would be a lack of AC, small washer/dryer, and a dark interior (but easy to brighten with lamps ;)

Good Value for Location (Still Exensive)

So far, I have enjoyed my time at 1301 Thomas Circle (I've lived here for about two months). Compared to other buildings in the area with similar amenities, it is a "good" value (but of course still very expensive), and the common spaces are clean and well-kept. Maintenance has also been timely and responsive to all requests. Walls are thick and I never hear noise from neighbors, elevators are fast, people are friendly and respectful. Gym equipment could use a refresh/upgrade (or even just a deep cleaning). Overall, I would recommend living here!

Good Place for the Money

7 management rating Reviewed by on

Rent here is quite a bit cheaper than other complexes. The apartments are a little bit outdated, but not in a way that makes them a challenge to live in. Campus is about a 20 minute drive away, 30 with traffic, but if you have a car, it doesn't feel like an issue at all.

apartment is spacious with all amenities you could need in building incl. pool, parking, gym, study rooms, 24/7 concierge, and grocery store downstairs. Maintenance is fairly responsive and apartments are updated, clean and attractive. Is also a very short walk from JMEC/ PCAM

Wonderful pool and barbeque area that unfortunately is only open for the summer months and closes labor day.
