Lovely, Bright Apartments
I have lived in a one bedroom in the Elaine for 13 months and can't recommend it enough. My apartment is spacious and has huge south-facing windows. In selecting an apartment (aside from the location), having lots of natural light throughout the space was important to me, and my unit in the Elaine exceeded my expectations. I've even been able to angle my couch so that I have a gorgeous view of the spires of the National Cathedral while I watch Netflix. Antonio, the manager, is kind and… responsive. The building is fairly quiet, and the neighbors are nice- mostly college kids. I will miss The Elaine!
