Apartment Description
Columbia Plaza is a vibrant apartment community featuring five distinctive residential towers and a wide variety of thoughtfully designed floor plans to fit every lifestyle. From efficient studios to spacious multi-bedroom homes, each layout blends... comfort, style, and flexibility. Residents enjoy the convenience of on-site retail and dining options just steps from their front door, creating a true live-work-play environment. Located in one of the city's most connected and walkable neighborhoods, Columbia Plaza offers a unique blend of privacy, community, and urban energy — all within a setting that feels like home.
The buildings are roach and mice infested. There are roaches in the laundry machines and mice in the laundry facilities generally. the Buildings are outdated and the elevators don't work, especially in the envoy building. Recently there have been frequent issues with hot water in the envoy building. The maintenance teams are instructed to patch up issues without addressing the root causes so issues often persist. We frequently have water shuts at short notices. The Central air also doesn't work. Even though tenants have a thermostat in the unit, the air is controlled to keep costs down and the Central air doesnt keep you cool in the summers. so even if you set the air to 68 degrees it doesnt get cooler than 76. The buildings also have a major mold issue. It's largely due to the condensation happening from the broken central air systems, which sometimes causes roof leaks. When you report the issues, management will just have the painters come and paint over it so you dont see it anymore. The building recently change management and the new staff is extremely inaccessible. They changed all the rules and no tenant long have 24-hour maintenance (and trust me, when you live here you need it!). The gym is old and sometimes the machines don't work. I really wanted to like it here. the location is great and i love my view but with so many problems its simply not worth it. i wouldnt reccomend this place to anyone.

Was a resident for two years - from July of '21 until '23.
I was very pleased with my time there. I got exactly what I had hoped for when I originally toured the facility. My apartment, the laundry room, the gym, and just the building in general were clean and functional.
The staff were tremendous. Everyone from the leasing office, to maintenance, to the front desk were always incredibly polite and efficient. I didn't have a single negative interaction with anyone.
The area around the building was solid. It was safe and pretty quiet. I loved that I had a small market on-site and a handful of other options within a 10 minute walk. On-site Parking was a separate company, but was also great.
If I had one wish, it would have been for a more traditional air-conditioner setup. The setup was explained to me prior to signing the lease (so just ask them - no need to re-explain), but that last month waiting for the building to turn over from heat to cold could be rough.
That's it though. Really a solid place to live. I though I paid a good price for my one-bedroom with plenty of space. I was pleased with my decision and would make it again.

Dirty, Old, Dangerous
Building is outdated and roach invested. On top of this, there was a shooting here recently that management tried to downplay to cover up their security issues. Whatever security they do have spends their shifts gossiping with the front desk or sleeping on the chairs.
Property Manager Responded: We thank you for taking the time to write your review. The incident that occurred last month is still an active and open investigation. We take security very seriously here at Columbia Plaza but we also have to follow the rules and protocol of an open investigation. We take pride in our transparency with our residents, and we just had a member of the police department give our residents an open forum on this incident. If you'd like to speak with one of our leasing managers to address some of your other concerns, please do call or message us.

Great location, value, and service
The location can't be beat - minutes to the GW metro, Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Georgetown, and the mall. It is an easy commute into the heart of DC, into Virginia due to proximity of the I-66 on-ramp and memorial bridge, or going north via Rock Creek parkway. The service was always great, especially Kevin, Detra, and Jessica at the front desk. Finally, the Market mini-mart shop was great - it had all the essentials and also a great selection of beer and whiskey.

Amazing Staff & Awesome Location
The Columbia Plaza is an awesome apartment complex!
The location is ideal & within walking distance to the metro, the monuments, grocery stores & GW hospital. It’s super safe and well protected with key fob entry.
The best part about Columbia Plaza is the amazing, professional & friendly staff that manage the leasing office-Maria has been there for 25 years & it shows in her knowledge of the property & her kindness with her customers. She showed me several apartments & knew quite a bit about the history; she answered all my questions, drafted the agreement, & made sure everything was in order before she left on vacation.
Kelly, Tia & Iris have also made my transition to apartment-living easy & effortless by their friendliness & their help with printing documents, drafting verification letters & answering parking issue questions.
A big shout- out goes to the front desk staff for always being there with a smile under their mask & for notifying me of any deliveries. I’m also grateful for the maintenance team who checked to make sure I didn’t leave my stove on once!
I love the convenience of the Market, Wells Fargo & The Magic Gourd all in the pavilion downstairs. It’s really a great place with awesome staff & I love calling Columbia Plaza my home!
