Argonne Apartment

Pro: The front-desk people were great Con: Everything else was terrible Since moving in, we routinely saw a mouse in our kitchen. When we saw the mouse for the first time, maintenance "covered" a hole in the kitchen through which they believed the mouse was entering our unit. The building exterminator also visited our apartment and set up various traps. Despite these efforts, we continued to see the mouse and created several maintenance requests after some of these sightings. Throughout our entire time living there, we saw the exterminator at least 10 times and continued to deploy over a dozen traps which we left up for months. The traps caught two mice we thought there was only one and afterwards still continued to see a mouse. After multiple mice had been caught, 

Management gaslit us and told us that OUR HOUSE WAS DIRTY and that is why the mice were coming into our home. This statement was not only rude, it was completely false due to us literally having a professional cleaning company deep-clean our home monthly. And after that terrible comment, we increased the amount of times the cleaning company came to prove a point.

We then caught TWO MORE MICE on the same day. During the 10th or so extermination visit, the exterminator suggested that the mice were not living in our apartment full-time and must be entering through an open hole THE OPEN HOLE THEY HAD SAID THEY FILLED. Over the weekend after that extermination visit, we saw more mice and created a new maintenance ticket requesting that staff inspect the apartment for holes again. Maintenance came to inspect the unit for holes again. Initially, they asserted they had already covered up all holes, but after we persisted they inspected the unit again and found "another hole" under the kitchen sink, which they then covered up. Just an hour later, we saw a mouse! This place was terrible to live in, the management continually gaslit us, the maintenance never fixed the issue, and we had an exterminator visit us constantly. Please don’t live here.

Chronic issues with mice! They’re relentless. Building takes a week to send exterminator and the problem persists. Update a month later: two more mice caught in my apt! I’m sick of this. Also please fix the ac. It’s summer.

BAIT & SWITCH! The advertisement does NOT look like the rental unit! Old and out of date by decades! Management will demand you to pay for the upgrade after waiting weeks for what they claimed to have been doing all along! The VENTS ARE FILTHY! There is a pandemic going on!! The manager is incompetent! Why paint over damage, just fix it!

I can’t do the mice !!! I just can’t!!! We catch mice WEEKLY & all they do is come “fill” holes this whole building needs to be treated for mice and NOT once a week!!! And the exterminator doesn’t treat he just comes finds holes to report to maintenance and put traps down that you’ll at some point have to dispose of yourself if something gets caught on them !!! I’m TERRIFIED of mice and have very young children I cnt take it ANYMORE I CANT

I moved here December 1st and got to experience how they handle emergencies maintenance issues, and how they deal with tenants. This is the most amazing apartment I've ever lived in and trust me I've lived in a few and every neighborhood in every quadrant of DC. The maintenance by far are the most amazing maintenance crew friendly accommodating Jaque and Yomi have the most amazing experience in spirits and stay very professional no matter what the situation is. Jonathan and Justin a very accommodating as well Jonathan got me approved in less than a day. I am very grateful to Jonathan Justin has an amazing Spirit as well. I don't plan on moving ever again as long as circumstances permitted if my apartment has the most amazing view not to mention the amenities the pool, gym store ,restaurant, business meeting room and the conciergerie yes or free coffee free tea and we can actually come downstairs and watch TV or entertain our guests downstairs if we're not in the mood to be in our Apartments you don't even have to leave the a r g o n n e for anything everything is right here. It's in one of the best neighborhoods in Washington DC and sure there's crime but we're isn't there crime it's not as frequent here I give them five stars because the CIM group has been absolutely amazing

I just wanted to take a minute to say how wonderful Jonathon in the front office is. This was my first time renting my own apartment so as you can imagine I had SO many questions. Jonathan was not only patient with me but super prompt in his responses and just overall very helpful. Anytime I’ve reached out to him he has gotten back to me in a very timely manner. He made the entire move in process so smooth and I really can’t thank him enough! Also love the apartment, clean building, clean amenities :

I am so grateful that I chose to move into The Argonne 2 years ago. It has incredible amenities the pool and gym are amazing, the hard wood floors, the natural light, the high ceilings - the balcony...it is a fantastic building. But what makes it extra special is the people who work and live here. If I ever need anything it is quickly attended to and throughout the pandemic the main office has been diligent in community compliance and safety - it's a fantastic place to call home.

I've lived here for almost 3 years. Maintenance can be very good, but they can also just ignore an issue. Most of the neighbors are very friendly, but some are extremely rude. Pros: Concierges are very friendly, building looks fairly new, apartments are overall spacious. Cons: Mice and roaches, extremely thin walls you can basically hear everything going on in adjoining apartments, very little closet space, smell of cigarette and marijuana smoke comes out of vents. There is at least one drug dealer living on my floor.

I've been meaning to write this for a few years. I can't say enough good things about the Argonne and its staff and the property. Starting with the front office Managers Dan and Banessa and Anna and Sabrina, they will do anything for the tenants and run this building perfectly. The Maintenance staff, Roberto and Ramone have been here for decades and can do anything, they know literally everything about this building and grounds. The apartments are beautiful and safe the common areas are very nice and clean constantly and the amenities are excellent. The pool here is one of the few in the city, Circa 1950 it's beautiful and large and a lot of fun. I highly recommend the Argonne to good people.

I recently moved out to DC and this is the first experience in an apartment here in the city. I have to say that this place has surpassed all expectations and I love living here. The front office staff is super kind and helpful, the different front desk people are also very personable and are available at all times of the day including overnights and weekends. The maintenance crew is also super good about getting all work requests done as soon a possible. They have a spot on the side of the building for dogs where they can use the bathroom and that’s been super convenient for all dog owners. In all this place is great and I look forward to spending more time here.
