Hi there, we regret your most recent visit with us was not up to the standards we strive for.

Horrible living conditions, crazy neighbors, poor security
Within the span of one year, there have been two fires, a flooding that damaged the property of people living in the 4th floor down, and elevators that were non-functional for over 2 months. There was no acknowledgement or attempt by the property managers to win us over, just kept charging rent like there was nothing wrong.
The car garage has been open for pretty much my entire lease, and still hasn't been fixed. Every night during the summer, people that weren't even residents would come and... use the pool for pool parties.
Some of my neighbors have very loud arguments in the middle of night, or play music all throughout the day. The only positive is that it is close to the metro, but beyond that, this place is not worth a penny.

Bad living conditions with high rent. Flooding, cockroaches, and management that turns a blind eye.

2-year resident update - the verdict is in and this place is great!
2-YEAR UPDATE We just moved out of Onyx after two years and the only reason we did is because we bought a house, otherwise we would have stayed. I've moved around a lot and lived around the world and the DMV. The Onyx is one of the best places I've ever lived anywhere. Residents were all friendly and courteous, never had an issue with any of my neighbors and you can't hear anything through the walls or floors which is definitely unique in apartment living. The quality of the building itself is... great, the roof is nice and peaceful, and I love the updated grill area. I checked out a lot of other buildings in the area and I know that some of them have MTV cribs style amenities but they also had a frat house vibe and very thin walls. This place was also by far the best value for money I found in the neighborhood and our rent stayed the same year-over-year. Unusual in the DC area. The thing that really sets the Onyx apart from the competition is the level of service they provide. From the moment we started looking at apartments there until the day we handed in our keys, Arlene and her team provided excellent service and made us feel at home. Receptionists always know your name and apartment number, maintenance requests are handled quickly, any questions/concerns are resolved promptly. I highly recommend this building. Thanks for making what might be our last rental experience ever the best we've ever had!
