I have lived here for 3 months now and I could not be happier…read more Andrew the realtor from Tilton Bernstein Management showed us the place and within walking in we put a deposit down and signed the lease. The place is not only beautiful but it is well maintained. Lewis is good about cleaning and taking care of the place. I heard he has worked here for 20 years. The front desk is friendly no matter who is working. They greet you by name and are great about letting guests in as well. I highly recommend if a condo is available to jump on it, as this is close to everything!

Having a 24 hour concierge is so helpful! As an investment I am so so soooo happy I chose The Odyssey as my home for the past 8 years!! The residents are all wonderful people and a priceless social atmosphere where wine and cheese nights are encouraged, running clubs, yoga on the deck, philanthropy and giving back to the community are just to name a few. The outdoor rooftop pool is my favorite thing to do on the weekends in the summer. The views are amazing and a BBQ allows you to have a great time with friends! Two Thumbs up and one of the best in Arlington!

Great building, minus the well nourished African American doorman who refuses to open the door for…read moreguests or residents. He sits low behind the front desk pretending to be unaware that people are banging on the glass to get in. How difficult could it be to buzz people in? Time to fire him and get better talent and service. 5 start building with looser doorman.

I had a terrible interaction with a receptionist, Ms. Adams, in the management office. I've been…read moreliving at the Towers for 25 years and this is the first time I've had a negative interaction with an employee. I asked her about the use of dumpster bc I'm working on some updates to my unit. She kept lecturing me over and over again about how contractors must take the trash with them even though I explained to her they were doing that. I literally asked her to stop repeating herself and that I wasn't asking about disposal of contractor's trash but trash from my own projects. She refused to listen and told me I would get fined if I get caught. After telling me I wasn't allowed to use the dumpster, she said I would have to schedule it with the office. I asked her which office, she then told me to leave it in the trash room. I still don't have an answer to my original question:( Looking online to see if I can find the answer myself so I don't have to interact with Ms. Adams again!

Really can't beat the location being so close to Georgetown, Foggy Bottom and Dupont. There are several parks with pools and tennis courts nearby too. Trader Joe's next door might be the best though.

We've already got three…read morefamilies in it, and I'm hoping we can get more to move in, and then give me a free place to stay should I come back to DC. The Belvedere, besides its sometimes creepy red doors that remind me of the Shining, has a lot of great things going for it. The condos are medium priced, there are a ton of parking lots below, it has a great outdoor pool and new fitness center, the little store on G5 has booze and does your laundry, and the staff are excellent. Let me say it again: the staff are EXCELLENT. They really get to know you, recognize you, and will chat with you even when they look busy. They really take care of the residents here with a smile and great customer service. Move in, but save a condo for me.

I've lived here for over a year as a renter and I would generally recommend. For buying I wouldn't…read morebuy here, but that's just a personal preference. Pros: -Homeowners association is well managed. They just bought a huge generator without doing an assessment. -Cheaper than some other neighborhoods. -Laundry is cheap: $0.75 wash and $0.25 for 15 min to dry. -Walls are REALLY soundproof -Dishwasher -Walk-in closet -Neighbors are nice - mix of late 20s/30s and 60s -Front desk staff is generally nice and helpful Cons: -No off street parking and street parking difficult later at night -Common laundry -Window unit AC -Front desk has lost packages -Condo association sometimes passes stupid rules (ie: you have to be home to get grocery delivery. I'm sorry, but doesn't this totally negate the value of the front desk?!?!)

I've been an owner in the Valley Vista for 32 years. I see that someone has characterized the…read morebuilding as a dump--which blows my mind because it is immaculately maintained and repaired. The staff are avalable and competent, the facilities are always clean and in good working order, and it is very secure. Yes, it's old--it was built in 1928--and it doesn't have a gym (but we may be getting a roof deck). There is a common laundry room on the main floor. But these are far outweighed by the friendly ambience and the convenience, and PRICE. Units remain one of the best bargains in this very expensive area. The street is gorgeous and quiet, but everything is right around the corner. It's a wonderful place to live.

The building is old and is in a constant state of repair requiring high condo fees. But management is lazy and has a terrible attitude. They are terribly slow to address problems and do so in a surly, rude manner. Avoid living here and definitely avoid buying here. Also, the condo association is extremely rude and close-minded. I'm so happy I sold and got out.
