Lenox Park is a great apartment building to live in. Immediate access to the Red Line Metro, grocery stores, and beautiful trails are within just a block as the building resides just on the edge of Downtown Silver Spring. The interior decoration is very modern and trendy, which is a nice touch when showing off to friends. The maintenance staff is friendly and VERY quick as some reside within the building. The front desk staff is always friendly and helpful, especially Nostam (Sorry if I spell
...that improperly!). The management staff is also friendly and helpful as well. Prativa made sure to assist us in every step along the way and was very, very helpful ensuring all of the paperwork was processed efficiently. For those with a family, this building is also very friendly as it has a small rec room that can be accessed at any time AND a lifeguard on duty for the pool in the court yard. The pool is large enough for adults who enjoy lap-swim and small enough for children as there is no "deep end". There is also an area with free grills to host cook outs! The courtyard has just about anything you could ask for in an apartment building. Finally, the building also has several shops that make living here even more convenient. There is a well stocked beer and wine shop, dry cleaners, subway and even a dentist if you so choose. You'll be hard pressed to find a more convenient place to live in the DC area.
The apartment itself is also wonderful. 850 square feet it fantastic for this area, all of the appliances work well, laundry is included in-unit, walk-in closet and sufficient storage space. I even have a wonderful view from my lanai overlooking the park while the sun sets. I have zero complaints on my apartment.
There are some things I'd like for the building to improve upon. The hot tub has never been hot the three times I've used it. It has just been a slightly warmed pool that bubbles. The lifeguard on duty only seems to know how to activate the bubbles, why can't they adjust the temperature as well? The pricing is a bit of a dupe. The $1650 I pay for my sizable one bedroom is completely fair price given the amenities provided. However, if you want to park in the parking garage, which of course you do, it's where you live. The cost is about $110 for ONE car and $170 for a tandem stall, which can be especially irritating if you and your significant other do not have spare keys for your cars. Despite these irritations, I still give this building five stars!
