  • Mice Mice and Roaches !!!

    November 28, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
    This place is terrible and health department needs to come see…they worry about parking permits but not on the broken elevators and rodent and roach infestation. Plz look elsewhere
  • TERRIBLE PROPERTY! out dated

    April 25, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
    There are rodents, car jackings, two unsolved murders, and management is terrible! They care more about fixing the outer appearance of the establishment then actually fixing this place up in the inside. It wreaks of marijuana in almost every building and I currently have 3 live mice in my apartment and all they do is come lay sticky boards! Just TERRIBLE
  • Terrible property

    March 26, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
    This is one of the worst properties in Silver Spring for a number of reasons. Carjackings, robberies, murder, etc. This property advertises a gated community but there is really no security. There is also a roach, mold and termite infestation in most units. On top of all that, the staff here is below mediocre.
  • Good for the price

    November 11, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
    Pros: - decent location in downtown SS - big apartments - some have patios (you have to call to ask about this though, they don't advertise it on their website) - pet friendly - management is courteous and responsive for the most part, occasional annoyance but nothing terrible - good online portal to pay rent and make maintenance requests which generally get taken of quickly - I haven't see any mice and only occasional bugs which were handled when I reported it (I do have cats though) - decent ...
    value esp considering utilities are included - verizon fios available - fitness center just reopened and its nice - pool is beautiful Cons - this year they didn't give any guest passes for pool despite their website saying each apartment got one visitor's pass. Hopefully just a covid thing and we'll get visitor passes next year. - shared laundry. Haven't had issues getting a machine but sometimes can be a bit messy in there - occasional garbage pileup in dumpster area. They've been changing their trash/recycle service but seems to be an ongoing experiment - pretty big complex so just getting out of it (walking) to the main road can take like 10 minutes and sometimes uber or delivery drivers have trouble finding your building - occasional smells or loud music from other apartments. Hasn't been a big bother to me as I usually shut my windows when it happens, but if you're not laid back about these things, it could be annoying. - occasional elevator outages. Again, not a big problem for me because of the floor I'm on, but for people on higher floors, could be an imposition - occasional fire alarms, on average once every few months - definitely not a luxury complex, no doorman to get your packages, but they do have amazon hub and I haven't had anything stolen/missing when left in front of my door. The apartments are decent but the buildings are not particularly impressive and other than a fitness center now and a pool in the summer, there's no other real amenities (although there are vending machines in every building) - occasional incidents reported like carjacking (it's a big complex with lots of cameras everywhere and I feel safe enough but stuff does happen) Bottom line: I'm good here for now, saving money etc., eventually I'd like something nicer but for what I'm paying and what I'm getting, I feel satisfied.

  • Not All Bad!

    February 13, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
    Reading all the previous reviews I’m a little confused, not gonna lie! The maintenance is amazing and the leasing office was so accommodating! I’ve been here for 2 years and the only issue I’ve had is with having multiple building managers and the fitness center remodel taking forever (we are in a pandemic though and I don’t blame them). I had to leave and go out of state due to the pandemic and left my car here. When they were doing construction, they were courteous and moved my car with no ...
    damages and told me where it was. The apartment is spacious and for the most part quite quiet! They’re constantly trying to improve with new washer/dryers and laundry system you can monitor from your phone, redoing the paint, etc. For holidays like Halloween and Valentine’s Day, they leave little goodie bags, which is so sweet! Honestly for the price and everything you get, I have no huge complaints! I’ll be sad to leave this place!

  • Toxic Environment

    September 3, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
    This complex is a nightmare. DO NOT MOVE IN!!! I have been living here for over 7 years and the place has become a toxic, dysfunctional mess. The management has no regard for resident comfort or health. They are more concerned with appearance than substance. Right now, they are painting halls with TOXIC fumes and my entire apartment is filled with the smell. There's poor ventilation and no consideration for people working from home during a pandemic. There is mold in the VERY LOUD air ...
    conditioning and heating system. Mice run wild in apartments on a regular basis (we caught one a week ago after trying to trap it for over a month). We used to have a great building manager, but now they are so cheap they have a paper pusher who covers three buildings. As soon as the pandemic is over, we are moving out of this place. DO NOT MOVE IN!!!

  • Bad management and outdated apartment

    April 29, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
    I would not recommend living here. I lived here for a year and had so many issues with our building manager, half the time he didn't want to be bothered with questions or blamed us for our issues. Management in general seems to be incompetent and you get a different answer from everyone. It took several days and even weeks to get maintenance requests filled. The complex is not walking or pedestrian friendly, you will have to walk very close to parked cars and cars who drive and sometimes speed ...
    around the complex. I think the goal of this apartment was to have as many parking spaces (which are small spaces) as possible and disregard those that walk to commute. The walk from where we lived is about a 12 minute walk to the metro and I always dreaded crossing the busy east west highway street where cars are careless and almost hit pedestrians on a daily basis. No guardrails either on a very narrow sidewalk with cars speeding by you inches away. The apartment building always smelled horrible in the hallways from people cooking food or smoking weed and trash was frequently left in the elevators and in front of our apartment door. I was considering transferring to another summit Hills apartment to be closer to the front since the apartments go far back from the exit but when I was asked what was available one of the leasing specialists made it clear that outsiders would have first preference, felt like we were not wanted. Then when we decided to leave they were begging us to stay. I guess the plus is the pool (but there are annoying and rude life guards), the size of the apartments and the price was reasonable. A very average outdated apartment with ours having an entire pink 1950's bathroom and old applicances. Glad to be out!

  • Do NOT move here

    February 26, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
    Do NOT move to these apartments! Mold, mice, ceiling leaks, and unprofessionalism (I have pics and emails to prove) were our top concerns after living there for 2 years! The worst place to live in Silver Spring!
  • Constant fire alarms and beyond poor fitness center

    February 23, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
    I'll start off by saying the prices are amazing for DC and the the quality of the apartments are not bad for your first apartment in DC for young professionals, interns, or students, but the value isn't there compared to apartments a little more expensive. My main two issues are (speaking as a resident of 8510) there are at least monthly fire alarms due to poor cooking or overloaded laundry (according to the fire dept). The alarms don't automatically contact the fire apartment which wasn't ...
    advertised or expected. The fitness center is a joke. There are 4 treadmills for a pretty sizable complex. One of them is always broken and multiple times all have been broken. It's a great place for a starter apartment but I'd strongly suggest moving when able.

  • Fine... until you move out

    August 1, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
    Pros - Nice pool, gym (very old, broken machines), maintenance is friendly and comes in a timely manner, location is OK, free parking, free guest parking Cons - Everything that comes with an old apartment. Bugs, my neighbor had mice. Very ugly/creep-looking hallways in some buildings. Halls also stink when people cook. There was a leak in the apartment above me, my ceiling cracked and it was not fixed the entire time I resided at Summit Hills. Refrigerator broke multiple times, had to throw out ...
    $100 worth of groceries. Air conditioning broke multiple times. Heat broke multiple times in the middle of winter. Noisy upstairs neighbors. WORST OF ALL, they will nickel and dime you when you move out. They begged us to stay living here, so obviously need more residents. When we finally moved out, we had normal wear and tear stains on the carpet (we lived there for four years) and they charged us upwards of $100 to get the stains out. Also not getting our security deposit back due to other bogus charges. Overall - Fine place to live if you're trying to save money and don't care about appliances breaking, weird smells from the hall, and bugs occasionally crawling up your walls. Don't live here if you can afford better.

  • I’ve made some bad decisions but...

    June 6, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
    Silver Spring has many wonderful commodities and attractions but Summit Hills is not one. If you are looking for a nice place to live please keep scrolling. If you are still reading, it all began with the leasing office and continued to the resident managers. They are all unprofessional, unfriendly, and unhelpful with any task no matter how trivial. They can help you by forgetting documents, losing paperwork, and not answering emails but placing the blame on the residents. So, if this sounds like ...
    the place for you then please come down and sign a lease for a 1950s apartment and tell them that I referred you!

  • Location and Economy

    June 16, 2017 - Review from Apartments.com
    I've lived at Summit Hills for 8 years. The apartment complex is conveniently located, cost efficient, has community events, and has a great staff. I have lived in two buildings 8504 and 1703 and staff is wonderful. The building managers (Carrie and DeShawna) are friendly, responsive, and helpful. The maintenance staff (Miguel and Marden) is just as great. I would say that 95% of my maintenance requests are addressed thoroughly the same day I made the request and the rare times they weren't ...
    addressed I was notified of that. The staff is just great!
