Crystal Flats

Crystal Flats is the best apartment complex in the DC area!!! The building is brand new and is kept meticulously clean. Their maintenance staff takes care of any issues immediately. The management is outstanding, professional, and very friendly! I have lived in this building for almost 4 years and I compare it to staying at a five star hotel! Great gym and 24 hour concierge staff!

The apartment itself has a great location and is new. The cabinets and appliances are cheap. The bedrooms are so tiny you cant fit a bed and a dresser. The building was taken over by Gates Hudson management which is the most price gouging non resident friendly management company out there. Do yourself a favor and just don’t rent an apartment from them ever.

The new management is horrible. The property used to be well maintained, friendly staff and amenities. The new management does not communicate with residents, constantly takes amenities away and is completely unresponsive to any and all complaints. For the price of an apartment in this building you can receive better amenities a few blocks away.

Very friendly and informative staff, always there to help when they can (service requests are normally very quick and were always same day for me). The gym is pretty great, free weights, medicine balls, bands, a few weight machines, several cardio machines, but no bench press. There are so many common spaces in this building that it is easy to find privacy even outside of your apartment. Several fireplaces, indoor and out, to enjoy each winter. The finish of the rooms is above average but not excellent, over paint/caulk, carpet fray, crooked outlets; all things easily fixed and they are eager to make sure the apartment is perfect before you move in. Parking is always available because they enforce towing (dont forget your pass!). I actually moved out of this apartment about 2 years ago and am looking to move back once/if the room I want opens up. I have lived in several apartments in the area and this is by far the best value and experience. 10/10 -Kevin P.

Excellent, modern apartment space. Clean and well-kept communal areas. Friendly staff. Great location. Can’t ask for much more. I’m new to the area, and love it here at my new M. Flats home! Living here has made my transition to a new state and new job easy.

m. Flats is a brand new apartment building that has fine amenities, friendly staff, and new furnishings! You just can't beat moving into an apartment that hasn't been lived in before. A clean feeling unlike none other. The location is very convenient being a block from the Crystal City metro. The rooftop is a great hangout spot, and the staff hold social events about once a month that are very nice for meeting your neighbors. Of course, every new building has some flaws especially when it comes to the air conditioning as it constantly breaks or resets numerous times a month. You just never know when it might break, but usually it's during the hottest nights. The garage door is also experiencing issues and sometimes you get trapped if they are working on it. The walls and floors are also thin for a concrete building. I usually can hear the neighbors but it is not as bad as other places I have lived. Despite these flaws, the past seven months have been an enjoyable experience at m. Flats Crystal City. Overall I am pleased to call m. Flats my home!
