Newport West — Local services in Washington

Newport West is a hidden gem in DC. My husband and I lived there for 5 years and thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. The building is not new, nor does it have a bunch of shiny amenities BUT the pricing reflects that and it makes up for this lack of newness in so many other ways. First, it's location cannot be beat! How many people can walk out their back door to a Whole Foods and be within blocks of all the best restaurants in DC? This building is hands down in one of the most convenient locations in DC, located directly in the middle of the city. In addition, the units are super spacious by DC standards and the split level layouts add character while making them feel even larger. Plus, many of the units have balconies which is something we had a really hard time finding when looking at apartments in this part of the city. Last but certainly not least, Gary who is the all around Newport West building guru was 100% our reason for staying in this building for so long. He always made us feel taken care of, was so much fun to chat with and always promptly took care of any problems we had with our unit. While we're really happy to finally be home owners, we're really going to miss living at the...

I have been living at Newport West for almost a year and a half and it has been a wonderful place to live. The location can not be beat and the staff, particularly maintenance (Gary) are super helpful and friendly. Any maintenance requests I've had were taken care of quickly and impressively well! I needed a part of my ceiling touched up with paint recently and not only was my place prepped for painting and done in the same day, they made sure my pet was safely locked in her cage with food and water and let back out once the job was completed. Johnathon (our newest member to the staff and Community Manager) made sure everything was done well and has also been setting up community events which has been really nice to interact with some of the neighbors with some free wine. Will probably sign lease for a third time when it comes up and excited to see what new updates/changes Johnathon puts through to make...

Moved in 2 weeks ago and have been amazed at the quality of service provided by Johnathan and his team. Apart from getting the apartment looking spic and span so it was ready for me they also helped (voluntarily) to have the furniture and all goods being delivered put into the apartment (I was working so it would have been very difficult otherwise). This was a life saver and cannot describe how good their service has been. Their response to emails was rapid and always providing a solution, usually involving them doing something. Thank you.

The apartment is just what I need - excellent location, good size and bedroom is quiet. Living room a bit noisy but not a problem except when emergency services are screaming by. Building is clean and quiet. These are all the reasons why I chose it! What I did not realize was how good Johnathan and Gary were in providing a service level that exceeded any...
