It has been good - it is a bit quiet, being in Falls Church, but it is cheap compared to many properties in the area. I have heard that many other apartments at this price point are dirty and poorly taken care of, but this is not the case with RT

They have a really good gym, pool table, a social room, and the place is well maintained and run. The ladies in the office are super nice, and they host social events once a month for the residents. Couldn't ask for more!

I moved into Roosevelt Towers about a year and a half ago. Here are the pros: Location, location, location. Priced on the high side of reasonable but still reasonable for what it is. Plenty of parking. Here are the cons: While they have done lovely i...

I had posted a review earlier this year and wanted to update it. The rodent infestation has increased dramatically. And managment seems unwilling or unable to address the problem. Extermnators are sent into apartments for tenants who complain and tra...

I've read the reviews from others and I disagree completely. We've lived here for four years and have had no problems whatsoever. The grounds are safe, the only utility problem we've had is a clogged drain and they fixed that the same day, there's AL...

Starting in April 2007 they will be charging for utilities based on your square footage and the number of people occupying the unit. This is ridiculous. When I moved in the utilities were included in the rent.

Our apartment from the day we moved in had cockroaches. After two years they went away. Now we have mice! And they stink. Our apartment has been stinking to high heavens for two days and they tell us to wait two more days. Even then I know nothing wi...

This place is awful. I had my doubts going into it, but it has certainly exceeded those. We moved in mid-December and nothing about the balcony construction was mentioned. Two months later it was blocked off and we were told we wouldn't have access u...

I've posted a complaint before on here. Although at the time I was mad, people have to understand that these are written in the heat of the situation. During the rain, I flooded, the management took care of it, I even talked to the property company ...

The management makes this place suck. The manager is incredibly rude & everyone else in the office (except the African-American girl that works weekends) could care less about you. It amazes me the polarity of treatment I received by the management b...

Constractions has been continuing for the second year. A lot of noise and dirt and no progress at all. Contractors work very slowly, they do not work every day, so there is no visible progress, everything just being destroyed (people have no balconie...

First of all, given the relatively low rent cost for apartments in this building considering the area, no one should be surprised that the building isn't perfect. Thinking otherwise would be sadly naive. What we consider to be downsides of living her...

Don't let the renovations fool you. They are a band-aid on a festering sore. First, the management company replaced the building manager over the summer and the new manager is unpleasant and unresponsive - many of the longtime employee/tenants that m...

We've lived here for over 2 years. In that time, we've had trash dumped outside our apartment door, holes punched in the hallway walls, and both of our cars vandalized multiple times--once so severely, the vehicle was undrivable. Many of the resident...

Eventhough the metro is about 0.8 miles from apartment, there is no bus to go to the metro. No fitness center. Need to go for a long walk to the school bus stop. They raise the rent every year drastically. They will not give you the special they offe...

First things first... I'll start off with some positives. They charge a reasonable price relative to the area. Maintenance has been prompt whenever we've had problems. The other tenants are decent people, there haven't been any problems there. The bu...

4 months so far and I would say it is good. Apparently alot depends on your neighbors as to your experience. I live on the top floor so need not worry about noises from above. I hear more noise from the road than the neighbors and its not that much f...

I just want to reemphasize what most of the recent commentators have written. This place is no longer any good. They are charging the newer tenants lower rent than the existing tenants and it is beginning to show. I have been threatened in the parkin...

The staff is friendly, and repairs are made in a timely manner. I moved from a one bedroom to a two bedroom before my lease was up, management was quite accommodating. Renovation of the common areas and elevators should start in the fall.

There is one thing, and one thing only, going for this place - location. The management staff are rude and lazy. Four of the last five times I received a package I did not get a slip in my mailbox to let me know. The one time I did, the staffer had m...

Pros : Nice locality & lotsa room space. You dont depend on the bus to get to metro - it is walkable 12-15 mins each way to the metro - however, winter/snowy periods it *will* be a pain - but even with taxis - it is less than $5 including tips. All u...

Pros : Maintenance people are very friendly. Falls under Falls Church City school limit. Cons : Elevator does not work most of the time. Eventhough it falls under falls church city, you have to walk atleast 2 blocks to go to a bus stop. If you l...

Moved in here in January 2002. Overall it has been okay except the elevators absolutely suck. Also this last winter we lost electricity for a few days because the transformer room flooded during the rain and snows. They always seem to be repairing th...

good location and quiet building, but the elevator breaks all the time and overall the maintenance upkeep is not good. currently our elevator has been broken for 8 days with no end in sight.

spacious enough with the 2nd bedroom; well kept; staff genuinely concerned with community feel to the place; great location with access to transportation and variety of shopping and diversity.

We have only live here for two months, but I can already tell it is going to be a very nice place to live. The staff is so helpful. The only drawback is that there is not a freight elevator for moving in. We had to squeeze our sofa into the tiny elev...

I´ve lived in Roosevelt Towers for about a month now and it´s a night and day difference between it (good) and where I lived previously, Skyline Towers (BAD). It´s relatively quiet, well maintained, and convenient (a 10 minute walk to EFC metro). ...
