Great location, decent units, OK amenities. There's a lot to like about Penrose, but the rates are no competitive and the noise from upstairs neighbors can be unbearable. The floors let you hear just about everything that happens above you. If peace and quiet is important to you, look someplace else. The floors at Penrose are terrible. I suppose it's not a problem if you can score a fifth floor unit, just please be mindful of the people that live below you. Oh, and there are the midnight fire... alarms... Just go someplace else.

Great, clean apartment
My fiancé and I moved into Penrose a few months ago and I have nothing but good things to say about this community! The complex is clean and conveniently located next to everything we need. Giant is directly under the building making grocery shopping a breeze. There are also wonderful local restaurants located within walking distance to the apartment. Our apartment is clean, spacious and has a great balcony. The kitchen is huge with plenty of counter space, a bonus for someone who likes to cook.... I've also enjoyed meeting and interacting with everyone in the leasing office and front desk. They have all been so welcoming and helpful with any questions I've had. Great place to live!

Don’t waste your time
This apartment complex on the the face is nice. However, once you live here you see the down side. Neighbors are super loud at all times of day even in the middle of the night. Notices to management go unnoticed. Constant noise and fire alarms of residents are not uncommon.

Mice,mice,mice
Mice, mice, mice...if u like to live in a home with mice you can have a place at Penrose Square Apartments and your concern with that being well ignored..After being tenant in there for sometime, l decided to have this disgusting mice in and around the unit issue to be the last one and l broke my lease and turning the keys in today. Especially when your concern, your voice are not heard by the managment team you get sick, this is very sensitive for my family and l get to see mice crossing the... room and its drops every where, really sicknen . And in return their unsuccesfull solution towards that does not help a bit. Everytime l had to chase and kill them and photograph them butnwho cares.. Anyway stood up this time and l wont take this anymore and broke the lease and now they are saying l am liable for the fees and penalties bla bla.. How dare.. as if we are under normal circumstances. As if they stated that we are renting you this unit but you have to live with mice and l said ok and not satisfied now.. come on .. who would want that.. if the situation and treatment bu the managment is normal l would act normal but l dont see that. So l will remember and remind this issue with Penrose Square Apartment where you pay prime rent for the home that comes with the mice..

Not worth the trouble.
Lovely building and community. They won't fix their fire alarms. They go off constantly, almost always in the middle of the night, and continue blaring away for up to an hour. Always a fake excuse the next day as to what happened. Move somewhere else.

Property Manager at Penrose Square Apartments responded to this review
Hello!
Thank you for taking time to leave us a review and share your feedback. I am happy to hear that you love the building and the community, and can truly empathize with the frustration of the fire alarms. We try to keep our residents as updated... as possible any time an alarm sounds for the building, and aim to be transparent with the cause for the alarm as well as the steps we are taking to resolve the issue. It is no secret that our fire alarms were a major issue from 2013-2015, so our management teams and owners implemented action items to reduce the number of false alarms experienced for the building. These updates, repairs, and the preventative maintenance tasks have greatly improved the overall functionality of the alarms in the last 2 years. In 2016, we only experienced 2 false alarms, and 4 false alarms in 2017, versus on average of 2-3 per month in years prior to these steps. If it would be helpful, I would love the opportunity to meet with you and personally go over the steps we've taken to reduce these disruptions to your peaceful living. If that would be beneficial for you, please feel welcome to contact me directly at christina@penrose-square.com, or at 703-271-8009. Hopefully we can improve your experiences from here, and offer more understanding around the history of the fire alarms.
