Testimonials
Carillon House Apartments is a nice place to live. Firstly, all staff (leasing officer, front office/concierge team members and maintenance staff) are professional and responsive! I love it. It is spacious just what I needed. The kitchen was newly renovated. The rooftop has the best view of all Washington DC!!! My apartment unit facing Calvert Street is quite, not loud. I would highly recommend this apartment!

The complex is within a half mile of Safeway, Trader Joe's, and CVS. It's also an easy mile walk to Georgetown. The windows are huge bringing in tons of natural light. Our apartment was newly renovated with modern lights and appliances. There's a fridge, microwave, oven, dishwasher, and gas stove in the kitchen, along with a garbage disposal. Utilities and WiFi are also included. The AC works great, and the WiFi is fast. There's also on-site laundry and a gym.

Coming from out of the DC-MD-VA area, I accepted a job offer and the turn-around time was very short. Carillon Apartments helped to speed up the lease signing and move in process. The staff was very helpful and helped make the entire moving process easy.

Carillon House located in Washington D.C is such a nice apartment. The leasing agent (Michelle Chambers) is by far the nicest leasing agent I have worked with. She is patient and works hard to make sure I get what I need. The move-in process was smooth and despite the fact it is located in downtown, the building is quiet most of the time. I enjoy my time here and would recommend it to anyone who plans to relocate to Washington D.C.

I am a graduate student at Johns Hopkins University. I spent a week looking for apartments. I've visited several, but Carillon House Apartment is definitely the best of all. The community is safe, 5 minutes walk to Trader Joe's, CVS. 10 minutes walk to bus station. And guess what, the amenities are the best compare to other apartments in the same price range. Definitely recommend this apartment.
- Carillon House Resident
I will be moving into this building in a few weeks. Michelle Chambers, Leasing Consultant, was a pleasure to work with and showed me numerous available units until I found the perfect one. Michelle was easy to contact and ensured that the application process proceeded smoothly and quickly. I had an excellent experience during what would otherwise be a stressful period of time. I highly recommend working with Michelle Chambers and I look forward to moving into my new apartment!

I am so happy to be the resident of the Carillon House Apartments. I am thankful and grateful for Meriem, who consulted and helped me to find a unit, which best fit my wishes. From the start of an application until the move-in date, Meriem was always in touch with me regarding the documents submission and payment procedures. Thanks to her professionalism, everything was perfect. My second impression after the move-in is Community Team. The most wonderful and Kind people, I have ever met.

The location is fabulous - close to grocery stores, banks, shops, restaurants, parks, etc., and only a mile walk down to Georgetown. The leasing agent was very helpful and the office staff responsive to all queries or requests for service. The concierges are likewise terrific.

I have lived in the Carillon House for almost seven years now. Even when I briefly moved abroad, I knew I wanted to come back to this building when I returned to DC. Nice location. Good value. Exactly what I needed
- Carillon House Resident
I loved how swift the management (really Meriem) was in our exchanges and in showing me different apartments. She was honest in answering all my questions and explained any perceived concern about the apartments. She kept me informed and even asked me to come and view another apartment before concluding on the one I had wanted. In all, I have enjoyed my stay here ? I have been here for only close to two weeks. The experience so far has been great.
- Carillon House Resident
I've been satisfied with the Carillon House. The value is incredible, as is the location. With close proximity to grocery stores, restaurants, and public transportation in what is a quiet neighborhood, the Carillon House is ideal for students, professionals, and everyone in between.
- Carillon House Resident
Maintenance was wonderful. They went above and beyond for me by carrying my large couch up six flights of stairs. They were so friendly and willing to help, and they saved me a ton of money. The front desk was also very friendly and communicative with maintenance for all my needs.
- Carillon House Resident
This is a great community! I love the neighborhood and the community of people around this neighborhood. It's a very beautiful area and extremely safe and peaceful. It's close enough to the central part of the city. Great experience of living here!
- Carillon House Resident
My first year in DC is somehow relieved by me staying at this apartment. Location-wise, I love this place. Given the opportunity, I would stay here as long as I'm working in DC. Never thought of finding or moving to another place coz I already found a HOME.
