don't do it unless you also have a great lawyer
August 1, 2025The building is swarming with roaches (you can't hardly go in any hallway or stairwell without seeing a few), water issues are abundant (emergency water shut offs are constant), lots of water damage in the walls and main areas including walls covered in mold and constant drippage from a mysterious something in main entryways which is really pleasant to get dripped on by a mysterious substance while you're just trying to enter your building. There are mice in lower floors. The AC and heat go out ...pretty much all the time and do a half assed job. Do you like hot showers? Because rest assured you will spend the vast majority of your winters without them - I've been here for a few winters now and every single time there are *weeks* where it gets barely above lukewarm and they say they are 'working on it'. They keep doing 'pest control'- or at least I see the truck here but truly they aren't treating the whole building from top to bottom so there are always going to be some until they shell out the money to actually do it properly. To top it off management will send out mass emails about things usually long after they've already happened like it's brand new. But for the most part when management 'notifies' people of problems (like hot water or things that are broken in common spaces) everyone has been aware of it for quite awhile. They are not timely in dealing with things in the slightest. It's like getting snail mail about breaking news. If you have a sensitive respiratory system don't move in here because it's just water damage all the way down with this building it's very old and needs a lot of repairs and maintenance. Having moved out a couple months ago my cough that's been bothering me for several years since moving in finally got better which is kind of horrifying. You will have a new property manager often and they are all as unhelpful and unkind as the last. They barely answer emails, never answer the phone, and good luck finding them in the office because they aren't there and if they are they are certain to make sure you know how annoying they find you for asking them to do their job.They are also extremely disorganized and lose things a lot which is not great because then it's your fault as well even if it's very clearly theirs because you never received the item they are saying you should have. Take it with a grain of salt and also a lawyer - you'll need it.Property Manager Responded
March 3, 2026We are very sorry to read about your experience and the concerns you have shared. Issues involving pests, water service, HVAC performance, or building conditions are taken extremely seriously. Our goal is always to provide a safe, comfortable, and well maintained living environment, and we regret that you felt these standards were not met during your time in the community. We work with licensed pest control vendors, maintenance professionals, and service contractors to address concerns as they arise, and we continuously evaluate building systems to make necessary improvements. Communication with residents during service interruptions is also something we strive to handle clearly and promptly. While we understand you have already moved out, we do appreciate you bringing these concerns forward. Feedback like this is reviewed by our team so we can continue improving our processes and resident experience. We wish you the best in your new home and appreciate the time you took to share ...your perspective.

MILDEW INFESTED
July 28, 2025Mildew and black mold are endemic at Merrill House. Their 19th century HVAC system (the same register blows hot and cold) leaves you sweltering in the spring and freezing in the fall until they "turn it over." Don't open the register or you will see mold that even the inventor of penicillin never discovered. We also won't discuss roaches or the mice you'll find should you venture to open the door to the basement trash room.Property Manager Responded
March 3, 2026We are very sorry to read about your concerns. Conditions involving HVAC performance, moisture, or potential mold are taken extremely seriously. Our team works with licensed maintenance professionals and outside vendors to inspect and address any reported issues, including ventilation systems and common areas. Pest control services are also regularly scheduled and supplemented as needed. If you are currently experiencing any of these concerns, we strongly encourage you to submit a maintenance request and contact the leasing office directly so we can investigate and respond promptly. These matters are important to us, and we are committed to maintaining a safe and comfortable environment for our residents. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
Review from Apartments.com
NO POOL AND NO GYM
July 2, 2024Don't be fooled - there is NO GYM and there is NO POOL. Management promises that they are "coming soon" but the gym has been "coming soon" for a year. We have never seen a gym at Merrill House. Plenty of signage, but no actual gym. NO GYM. Never a gym. Also - NO POOL. As of July 2024, the pool remains a construction zone. Management assured us that it would be open by Memorial Day... and then when that didn't happen, by mid-June... and then when THAT didn't happen, they said they'd complete ...the concrete pour by late June.... and then when THAT didn't happen, well, we're all pretty unhappy about it. So, I repeat: THE POOL REMAINS A CONSTRUCTION ZONE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SUMMER. Also of note: At Merrill House, you will be combat roaches, mold, and leaks that do not quit. THEY DO NOT QUIT. You will smell human urine at the only wheelchair-accessible entrance (which is located in the back of the building) and sometimes, you will find it in the shared laundry rooms or elevator. The front door code has not been changed in years. Despite recent concern by many residents here about security, the code remains what it has been for years. Seems like everyone in the area knows the code for the Merrill House front doors. On weekends, there is no staff to empty the trash chute, so it is left to rot. On holiday weekends it's even worse. I anticipate an especially pungent July 4th weekend. You know what will make it even better? No pool. TL;DR: the management company (Eagle Rock) advertises (on this page!) amenities that do not exist and that is just the beginning of my long list of gripes. Also - I would give Merrill House 2 stars as apartments are spacious and relatively cheap compared to others in the area, but it seems like someone has gone through and given a bunch of artificial 5-star reviews (with no comments) and I can only imagine they were largely done by some poor Eagle Rock peon.Property Manager Responded

Very Poor Service
January 10, 2023I don’t know about others, but I am sharing my experience. I applied for the apartment on December 11, 2022. I had to follow up with them constantly. They promised to get back to me, but trust me, they failed every time. They told me to email them, but I barely got any response back. I even needed to call them to review my application. Then they send me the documents that need to be completed and sent back. I did, but after the holding fee of $200 was taken out from my account, they just ghosted ...me. I called them and they are saying they are reviewing it and will get back to me tomorrow. But guess what, that “tomorrow” never came! As my current lease was ending on December 31st, I had to apply for another apartment, just so that I wouldn't need to live on the street. Luckily, I got a response from them very quickly and secured that apartment. Still, there was no response from Merrill House and they were closed for several days so I couldn’t reach them either. Finally, I received an email from them on January 3rd, 2023! Like, seriously? And they were still telling me that they are reviewing the application and they would like to push back the move-in date to January 7th, 2023. Who are you to decide that? Where do I live until January 7th and where do I keep my furniture? So, when I heard back from them, I requested to withdraw my application because it was already too late as I already moved into the apartment that responded very quickly. I requested a refund for the $200 holding fee. I didn’t get a response back from them about the refund until I called them. Guess what, they are saying they won’t refund me because I didn’t withdraw my application within 48 hours of application. So they are literally meaning that their failure to review my application and get back to me in a timely fashion is my responsibility? FANTASTIC! I wanted to lease an apartment from them in the future, but with this experience, I won’t. Be aware!Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
The water went out again without warning and is still out!!!
October 8, 2019Where can I start? We live in a 2 bedroom apartment on the 6th floor that is roach infested and we are surrounded by apartments with dogs that bark all day long when their owners are at work. The water, both hot and cold, has gone out multiple times in the past 2 months with no warning (or apology) from management - two times hot water came out of the cold faucets and even filled up the toilets with hot water. The three elevators work well, but they are often flooded with dog pee and no one ...cleans them for days sometimes.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com

poor management staff and very poor building
May 3, 2017I moved in here June and regret ever moving to an apartment like this. First of all the management staff especially Saba is very rude and does not deserve to be called a manager, the best staff so far they had here was Ashley, very friendly and professional. The building itself is very old and poorly maintained. Great location but poor apartment, will never advise anyone searching for a good apartment to move into this apartment. Molds in the rooms, very bad. Please beware.Review from Apartments.com
Poorly maintained
September 5, 2016The leasing staff is very friendly and courteous and it is centrally located to everything however, this property is poorly maintained and in need of major renovation. The condition of this apartment at move in was unacceptable. The bathroom sink was clogged, the dishwasher doesn't drain, there are two lighting fixture that were discovered to be broken on the second day, the Ac filters were dirty and the Ac air return were absolutely filthy. I also suspect there may be mold in the Ac/heating ...system as the apartment has a moldy smell and my family has been coughing, sneezy and stuffy since moving. I'm very dissatisfied with my experience and I would not recommend this place to anyone other than a refugee. Save yourself the stress and pay the extra money for somewhere worth coming "home" to.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Very unprofessional
August 13, 2016Booked an appointment to see the apartment at 2PM, I show up at 1:45PM. Had to wait outside in the 105F weather because no one was at the office to open the door. Lady finally shows up and takes other visitors to show the apartment despite my appointment. This interaction speaks a lot about the quality of the management staff.Review from Apartments.com
Reasonable appt rate for the city.
October 7, 2015Living in Falls Church City is expensive. Buying a property is impossible on a median income. I saw a sign for new townhouses "From the $1.1 millions!" the other day. For us non-1%ers Merril House is a good rental choice. The building is old, but the apartments are reasonable in cost compared to other choices in the area and it is still a good location. I can still walk 2-5 blocks to most of what I want to get to. A bar, wine store, ABC, cvs, starbucks, Dunkin, subway, and soon a Harris ...Teeter. You could be closer for 300-500 more a month, but i'll walk the extra 2 blocks. Plus, the staff is awesome and very nice!!!Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Great Staff, Open Sunlit Apartment, Dog-Friendly, Good Location
August 25, 2015First, great staff. Ashley is a great manager (and being promoted as a result). Angela is terrific and very friendly. Kwet the maintenance guy is quick to fix what needs fixing. Second, the apartment itself is one of the best I have had. Roomy. Lots of windows. Balcony. Sunlit. Storage and closets galore. Third, they let you have dogs. Not only that but they even provide doggy bags at convenient locations. Fourth, the location is great. Close to Alexandria, Arlington, Bailey's and 7 Corners ...on one side, Fairfax and Vienna on the other. Fifth, smoke free! Ok sometimes the nicotine addicts break the rules, but overall, most of the time, smoke free. If problems arise (as they sometime do) with other tenants (breaking the noise rules, not leashing their dog, smoking despite the smoke free community rules), the managers react quickly.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
