My wife and I lived at The Kingsley for three years, and recently moved a few blocks away, as we…read morepurchased a condo. I have to say, before renting here, it had been nearly 30 years since I last rented an apartment. I recall that it was considered sport to commiserate with other residents and lampoon ridiculous management policies and procedures. Not here. Everyone you'll encounter are total pros, and everyone works to make your experience at the Kingsley awesome. Communications from the Management office were, clear, lucid, and succinct. For large-scale work events in the building, like garage floor maintenance, communication was handled with deft and aplomb and informed residents of exactly what was going on when and what to expect. Charges against our security deposit on move-out were fair and reasonable. The good: The building itself is modern, beautiful, and meticulously maintained. The maintenance staff sees to it. The building is mostly occupied by professionals and never had an issue with late-night frat parties and carrying on. Everyone is generally respectful of living in a building with shared walls and ceilings/floors. But it is an apartment building with lots of other people, and you will hear some noises on occasion. The location is great too. There's a lot of new construction in North Old Town and I feel confident it will the place to be in Old Town over the next couple of years. The staff arrange lots of social events to meet your neighbors, and it was cool to meet and mingle. I met some very interesting folks there. It's Old Town, so in absolute numbers the rent seems high, but to be honest, I thought it represented good value for what you get in return. Your mileage may vary, depending on your perspective. Opportunities for improvement: One area to be aware of if you're a full-time bicycle commuter. Bicycle parking is tight, and losing a parking spot is common. This wouldn't be an issue with ample parking for bicycles. One bike cage is located right next to a parking spot, and if that spot is occupied, it can be difficult or impossible to get your bike in or out. That made that bike cage next to useless, in my opinion. I reached out to the Management office on more than one occasion to raise this issue, but never heard anything in return. This is a first-world problem, I suppose, but a more robust bike parking infrastructure would have helped quite a bit -- especially as this part of Alexandria is located near so much bicycling infrastructure and is a great place to be a full-time bike commuter. I give the Kingsley four stars, though, and can highly recommend it to anyone considering living here.

McNamara 3 reviews a minute ago NEW I've had an exceptionally positive experience renting an apartment at Manor House over the last two years and I would absolutely stay longer if I could. When I began my apartment search two years ago, I knew I wanted to live within a 10 min drive to the Pentagon and in a dog-friendly area so I started looking in the Arlington and Alexandria apartment communities. What I found were a lot of concrete high-rise apartments that felt austere and "rushed" in the construction and which all seemingly had a nightclub atmosphere within the building or immediately in the entry way; this was not for me or anything close to what I would want to come home to (even though I know home is wherever your dog is). I looked at about ten apartments before finding Manor House and then I knew right away this was where I wanted to live. Manor House is charming and cared for and elegant in a low-key way. Nestled in what feels like a private park, flowers and greenery abound and there are just three floors per building and only 7 or so apartments per floor. The effect of this is that the grounds and the complex provide a tranquil reprieve from the raucous hustle of standard DC area living. Additionally, the apartment is remarkably well-maintained both inside and out. I mentioned the park-like atmosphere: this is due to meticulous grounds-keepers that lay new sod and maintain beautiful flowers around every aspect of the property. Inside the common areas a daily housekeeping service comprised of some of the kindest people you'll ever meet around D.C. keeps these spaces immaculately clean (including right up to your front door). And then there's inside the apartments: From hardwood floors to ornate crown molding to custom built shelves, Manor House gets all the details right. I'll add to this that, when I walked into my apartment on the first day of my rental period, there was a large welcome basket that greeted me with a card signed by the management team alongside treats for my dog. . . Manor House understands that details make all of the difference. Of course, this quiet and immaculately maintained park-like apartment with hardwood floors and crown molding that gets the finer details and leaves gift baskets for me and my dog doesn't just happen. It's intentional and due to a combination of an extremely pro-active and responsive onsite management team (shout-out to Jeff, George, Latisha and now Loretta who have made living here so easy and comfortable) and attentive ownership who care about the comfort of their tenants and the quality of their property.

We heard another vehicle was broken into as well. We pay to park in a "secure" and monitored garage. We reported the break in to the police. Since this has happened management has done nothing to inform the other residents and they have yet to call the police themselves to review video footage. Yet when someone's tires were stolen an email was sent. Their lack of concern and their oh well attitude does not sit right with me. They only reached out to us because my husband sent them an email. Luckily it wasn't a person that was hurt, but it still takes away your sense of feeling safe. All we want is for them to inform the residents who live here. Why is that so hard? Management wanted to meet with us but we were unavailable the day they wanted to meet. My husband offered two other days that would work that have since passed.They never reached out. We have heard nothing else from them. Now at this point I want to speak to there manager not to the management staff that offers no help. 3 weeks tomorrow and still nothing.

I haven't had too much interaction with anyone else, but I can say people are very nice in the apartment building. Moving into my apartment was a smooth transition and I didn't have any issues at all. The amenities are fantastic and I have a tendency to forget that I can call this place my home because it feels like I'm on vacation. I don't have any issues at all. Prior to moving in, I was concerned about noise from the fire department being within close proximity and I have to say it's not an issue. My apartment is very quiet and it's great. One thing I would like to note is if you have any issues with dogs, this apartment building may not be for you. I know some people don't like dogs or have allergy issues, so please keep that in mind. The only issue I have with dogs in the apartment building is preventing myself from petting them all.

Turnkey Housing provided a "Cadillac Experience" but on a budget you could afford on your own, as a small company or an independent consultant. When I moved in, everything was all setup: furniture, cooking equipment, linens, and even cable TV and a high speed modem. Moving from your own house to a temp apartment can be hard: it brings back all the issues of coordinating repairs with building management, getting addition help items "like a step ladder", and everything else. Eric and JJ took all of this for me. Since they do this full-time, they were able to take care of issues more efficiently than I would if I was renting out an apartment in my own name. I strongly recommend them for any temp living arrangements in the Alexandria/Arlington area both if you are moving yourself or are a small business relocating new employees to the area.

2022 Review: It is a nice place to buy BUT NOT TO RENT…read more The building is not competitive with the new apartment buildings nearby. It is very restrictive and no amenities whatsoever. I will NOT recommend as investment property either since the rental estimated value is NOT competitive. However, the building has a lot of on going renovation projects. It is an excellent opportunity to BUY since it will appreciate in the long run. As a homeowner, it is good thing but NOT as a TENANT. It will be a lot of noise and inconveniences. It has a lot of potential for homeowners who want to live in Old Town, without the high price tag of the new developments. The condos are very spacious and owners have invested a lot in renovating their own spaces. On the contrary, the RENTAL properties are outdated and overpriced. Landlords are kind of rude and greedy. They will raise your rent to pay for any increase in condo fee due to renovation projects that you will NOT enjoy it. Unless, you are planning to stay here for years. It is kind of sad to say goodbye to excellent residents that can't afford the rent anymore but landlord are cold and greedy. Most of the residents are 60 plus, so the vibe is very slow and quite.

(On related note, while I lived here I heard that Lindsy Lohan threw a tantrum at a hotel manager for putting her in a suite that was only 500 square feet.) *Building The heat & AC are included, and although the building can only offer one at a time, both are extremely effective. This does however mean that in the spring & fall there will be a few days were you'll be either a bit hot or a bit chilly... but it wasn't bad. I had no bugs and no major building problems. I looked at a lot of "inexpensive" options in Alexandria, and this building stands in a category of cleanliness I literally couldn't find anywhere else I could afford. It might be the only small apartment tower in the city without weird-smelling hallways. There are laundry facilities on every floor, and aside from possibly Sunday night, it's never hard to find an open machine. *Occupants While I was there my floor was mostly occupied by young professionals who in typical fashion were nice, but too shy to ever offer more than a passing smile or quick hello (myself included). The door guys were always really cool and friendly. *Parking There's both indoor & outdoor lot parking (indoor spots are bought or rented) Street parking is not metered, but there is a maximum time limit of a few hours. Guest parking was never a problem. *Perks All residents get a free membership to Old Town Athletic Club http://www.yelp.com/biz/RhCjzk-wRfe2UfkAbeXTHg which is only a two minute walk away. The building's roof is open year round. Great for grilling, taking pictures, having dinner, or hosting a party. The view is spectacular. If you're having a party, I think there's a fee attached... I never tried, so I don't know the details. It's a great, if not amazing spot for a sweet romantic dinner for 2, especially if you can cook, be sweet, and are constrained by budget! Balconies! I highly recommend getting a unit with a balcony. They're just the right size to set up a bristo table for dinner & drinks. My spot on the 5th floor had a river view and I'll miss many a good night out there. There's public tennis courts are across the street, but they were full every time I thought to play. *Community I lived here with a car for 3 months and decided to get rid of it when I realized that I hadn't used it in a month... the neighborhood is totally walkable. King St is a 10 minute walk away, through a decent area. The Braddock Metro is 1/2 a mile away, but the last few blocks go through a project... I don't recommend walking alone at night. I saw 1 armed robbery and several beatings walking past the projects there. There's a giant , a Trader Joe's, liquor store, Blockbuster, and tons of restaurants extremely close by. Again, the neighborhood's safety is not bad unless you head out towards the Braddock Metro, and even that area seems to be getting a lot better. The area is QUIET. Nightlife needs to be metro'd to, unless you don't mind the local bars and tourist spots on King st. *Landlord If you're considering renting here I highly recommend renting from Jo Lynn Ricks (5 star landlord review!). As my landlord she was responsive, friendly, and possibly the only person I've ever rented from that fairly returned my security deposit. She can be reached at jricks@deloitte.com and owns at least a few units in the building. If you want to live alone, or are new to the area, Port Royal's a pretty safe bet. Living in a studio apartment has a lot of drawbacks, but finding better options on a budget in Old Town could take a lot of time.

The new kitchen cabinet was also selected and installed, and matches with the cabinets that were already in place. I was also impressed that they do not take any shortcuts, and quality seems to be a top priority for them. Even though my project was small compared to many large renovation or repair projects, I never once felt that I was any less important as a customer. I also appreciated that they were upfront and transparent about any issues that arose during the repairs, and they made sure to stay in contact with me and offered helpful suggestions for overcoming any repair barriers. The Zelaya team remained professional, courteous, and transparent, and completed the repairs on time and on budget. They truly are a company that is committed to customer service and ensuring that everyone is happy with the end result. I would not hesitate to hire them again the next time I am in need of repairs or renovations.
