Renters Reviews and Ratings
Cattle and inmates have more rights than do Colesville Towers tenants
October 28, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
I wish zero stars was an option. We have been living here for a year and a half now, and it’s gotten progressively worse. Currently, it is 98 degrees in our apartment, which is on the top floor with south-facing windows, because the A/C for the whole building was turned off on October 6th, well before cold weather fully arrives in the DC area. We have 4 fans going full blast, all curtains fully closed, and no ice maker. Our cats are suffering, as they cannot leave the apartment to seek “relief” ...
outside in the 80 degree weather. Cattle and inmates have more rights when it comes to temperature regulation than do the residents of Colesville Towers. We have spoken with management about the issue, with no resolution offered whatsoever. Not even an extra fan to borrow or an ice tray. This is not the first time our apartment has reached the 90s, as this has happened three other times since we moved in. Every spring and fall are unbearable, as they refuse to leave the A/C on for the comfort of their tenants, instead opting to save money and only offer us A/C from mid-May through early October. Those of us facing south (roughly half of the units in the building) have no use for heat year-round, though it’s on and available from October through April, thus saving Ross Management money on HVAC expenses while their tenants endure inhumane conditions.
Beyond that, we have had repeated issues with cockroaches, and even a mouse one time – again, on the 11th story – despite our diligent cleanliness and pest deterrents. Management is unresponsive to emails, making in-person visits to the office the only way to communicate with them. The gym is in great disrepair, multiple laundry machines are often out of order, and the windows to the lobby have been broken three times over the past year by unruly tenants. Packages routinely have been stolen with few repercussions. Tenants are encouraged to purchase their own doorbell cameras to protect their packages from being stolen, rather than management spending any resources to install a single security camera on each floor (they’re in the elevators only).
We see no reason to provide a notice of moving out, as management has put in no effort to make us want to stay any longer than is absolutely necessary. We plan to make a formal complaint with Montgomery County Department of Housing and Community Affairs. No one should have to live like this.

Unbearably Hot in May
May 18, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
Expect many days in the 80's and several in the 90's before they turn on the AC. If you try to contact management to find out more information, expect to be ignored. Expect the front desk "concierge" to block any attempt you make to talk to management. Also, expect the "concierge", when they're actually there, to be completely useless and actively unhelpful. As for the amenities, don't expect a grill. If you pester them enough, they might put one out, but without propane. Also, no ...
lifeguards, because they don't want to pay them, so no pool either. A lot of the gym equipment is either broken, missing, or not safe to use. Think a package you order will be delivered? Well the concierge stopped accepting packages at the start of the pandemic and the front desk staff (frequently not actually at the front desk) will often just ignore anybody trying to get in to make deliveries. So will your package arrive? Depends on how long the delivery person is will to wait for somebody to randomly let them in.
The laundry facilities have been unusable twice now. The first time was for about two weeks. Management offered no good solution during that time. They suggested going to the laundromat a mile away or hauling laundry to one of their other apartment complexes and hoping that those machines would be available. Two weeks of that!
You may notice that this mentions nothing about the bugs or mice that run rampant. I think most of the other reviews cover that nicely, so I won't repeat that, but yeah, it's bad. It's too bad for any one company, heck, only one van, to do anything about it when they only come once a week. Want to complain about the bugs? Management will "required" that you completely empty your kitchen so it can be treated. They'll give you only 24 hours notice (which you might get late if you get the notice when you return from work) and they'll threaten to fine you $65 if you do not comply. Also, their treatment is nowhere near effective enough.
Want a positive comment? Their maintenance and custodial staff do a good job and work hard. It's too bad the apartment complex and management are awful and take away from that.
I have no clue how their average rating is a 3.8. Everyone her complains about the apartment complex and management. Want to bond with a fellow resident? Just start complaining about these things, and they'll quickly join in.

We value your rating, though we would definitely like the chance to improve your perspective. We are happy to report that the AC has been turned on and is functioning. The timing of the AC being turned on is determined by the county who requires us to provide heat for when the temperatures drop. Our gas grill is available year round as well as our gym. We are not currently aware of any issues with those amenities and would love more information on the broken equipment mentioned. The 24-hour concierge will gladly accept all packages and will contact resident when it arrives. We understand and apologize that the repairs to the laundry room were inconvenient. Unfortunately the repairs were out of our control and necessary to have functioning laundry machines for the foreseeable future. We are unable to locate your name in our system but we would love the opportunity to speak with you about your pest concerns so we can have pest control scheduled ASAP.

Trust the reviews! I wish I had.
June 26, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
The reviews are on point !! There is a very big problem with mice and roaches. If you think that pest control will do the trick, you are sadly fooled. There is a hole behind the stove, hence, mice and roaches will come through and there is nothing you can do about it. Being super tidy and buying pesticide will not fix it. The property management has no ear for this problem. Your call will almost always go to voice mail. Do not be tricked. If you ask the staff, they will probably say that this ...
is an old problem that was solved(as was said to me). This is a review dated June 25, 2019. I will update this review every month so that future tenants are well informed

We truly apologize for any miscommunication regarding your maintenance tickets, and we hope that your conversation with our managers was helpful in relieving your concerns. We hope that our compensation of your rent for the month of June was sufficient in also relieving any frustration you may have had. If there is anything else we can do for you moving forward, please do not hesitate to reach out to us in the Leasing Office, or online at ResidentHelp@rossmgtservices.com. We look forward to speaking with you in the future.
Thank you,

DO NOT LIVE HERE
September 7, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
It took maintenance over a week to respond to our complaint of water leakage/mold, and a decaying ceiling. Then when they finally came, all they did was slap a layer of paint over it... which made the problem worse. Not to mention the building is infested with roaches, bed bugs, and rodents. Living here is a nightmare.

We are truly sorry for any inconvenience in scheduling that may have occurred with your maintenance requests, and we hope that our visit with you today (9/11) will help resolve any issues! We called & left you a voicemail yesterday (9/10) to chat about scheduling future preventative pest visits, and we hope that we hear back from you soon about this. We want to make ourselves available to you whenever you need us, so please don't hesitate to visit us in the Leasing Office if you need something!
Thank you,

sad to say but i would not recommend renting here anymore!
October 15, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
This is my fourth year at Colesville Towers, and I have never been so disappointed. First, they changed an outstanding group of managers, and hired people that care less about the residents. Since then, I have had more problems with my plumbing, my kitchen is infested with roaches and mice, and the HVAC system is worse than ever. For the past year, I have submitted about 15 work orders, which is tripled the number I have done in 2 years. It's always about the same issues: running toilets, ...
roaches, and mice. They are the first to request feedback, but the last to perform great work. In all, I am an unhappy resident, and I can wait for the day my lease is up to move out. Take it from someone who has loved her apartment very much, do not get an important unless you want to live with roaches and mice 24/7!

Weigh your preferences & deal breakers before moving in
October 5, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
This apartment complex has pros and cons like every other.
Pros: Proximity to silver spring metro is great and easy access to 495 makes transportation very convenient. the icing on the cake are the Restaurants, movies, shopping & fun events that are literally around the corner. The apartment is also quite affordable especially for its location in the downtown area.
Cons: Management and the service they provide at this apartment is the worst and most frustrating thing you will ever experience. ...
Moving in is always unstructured and tedious. The building is old and it smells like it. Even though they treat for pests from time to time, there'll still be a few roaches here and there no matter how clean you keep your unit.
Everything can go wrong & i'll suggest you ask as many questions as possible, do some research before you move in if all you need is just a place to lay your head and you are not afraid to get locked into a lease regardless of how things turn out.

Colesville Towers - Affordable in Great Location in Downtown Silver Spring
September 28, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
I have a 2 bdrm 2 bath apartment on a high floor with an unobstructed gorgeous northeast view. Nice big windows throughout apt even in the kitchen. The bedrooms are side by side...more of a family set up. The master bathroom inexplicably has a large tiled shower rather than a bathtub. None of the units have washer & dryers. Lots of storage space in apt. Large balcony with big patio doors. Electric/gas/water/trash are included in rent. A/C & heat are turned on during the appropriate ...
months.
Parking is available at additional cost. Free bike parking in the garage. The apartment is in a very walk friendly area 2 blocks from downtown Silver Spring events (theaters, stores, farmers markets, concerts, restaurants, etc). Buses stop in front of building & across the street. 10 minutes to walk to Silver Spring metro (red line). Near Sligo Creek Park. Ellsworth Playground next door. Ellsworth Dog Park is coming.
The downstairs lobby area is attractive with 24 hour reception & maintenance. There are three elevators in the front of the building. I don’t think there is any WiFi. There is no business center. They do have free coffee during workweek mornings.
In the back, there is a loading dock that works if you have a truck & can back up to the dock. The loading dock has stairs rather than a ramp. There is one service elevator in the back of the building.
The mail room is across the building from the lobby; a bit inconvenient & in an unattractive area.
The patio area is lovely, but adjacent restrooms are locked up. This is silly. The bathrooms should not be locked up during normal hours.
The swimming pool is open for summer season during very limited hours when a lifeguard is present. There is no jacuzzi.
Their are BBQ grills in the pool area but the BBQ grills are always chained up with no grill tools available. Inconvenient!
With a building this size, I do think they need a larger laundry room with more washers & dryers. The laundry area is extremely unattractive (looks like a bomb shelter) & has no pleasant area for lounging & waiting for your laundry. There doesn't seem to be any WiFi in the laundry area either.
The gym area is not attractive but the equipment is functional except I've never figured out how the TVs work.
There is constant service on the building (working on water, heat, AC, parking doors, parking area, spraying for bugs, etc). I like that they keep the building maintained.

Quick walk to the metro, restaurants and grocery stores - which is great! The apartment is very spacious - lots of natural light and amenities to enjoy. Downside - they have mice
A child fell out a screen window and died here
September 3, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
Besides the mice and roaches, the broken garage doors that constantly remain open and the new charges for water, the more worst is that a child fell out a screened in window and died not too long ago. The windows are not secure. And the tenants were not notified to increase their diligence with their own children.
Find someplace safer to live....

What a Mess
August 6, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com
Not the best is the nicest way to sum it up. I can go on and on but simply put you get what you pay for and not a bit more. They also charge utilities after your first year so its not as advertised!
