Great location, amazing maintenance - but serious recall and safety delays
October 24, 2025Disclaimer: This review reflects our personal experience as current residents of The Elm. We’ve met many residents who love living here, and we understand why. We’re also genuinely fond of the building. The location is great, the amenities are nice, and the maintenance team is excellent. They’re responsive, kind, and always go above and beyond. Kiara in leasing was also incredible to work with and made the moving experience great. That said, our experience following a fire in our apartment on ...July 5, 2025 raised serious safety and accountability concerns. Afterward, we learned from Samsung that our range was part of a CPSC-issued recall from August 2024 due to a fire hazard. Despite that, the building initially downplayed the issue and stated the recall “only involved knobs.” We first notified Montgomery County due to concerns for other residents, and only after filing that report did the building formally acknowledge the recall and begin scheduling building-wide safety work. We’re thankful that no one was injured, but it’s alarming that it took county and state involvement for corrective action to occur on a known fire-risk recall affecting many units. Safety should always be the top priority, especially in a high-rise building where a single incident can impact hundreds of residents. If you choose to live here, make sure you have strong renters insurance with a low deductible. It’s not uncommon to get notices that pipes have burst, flooding multiple floors (see past reviews). Elevators are frequently out of service, and any time there are water issues, whether internal or from nearby construction/water main breaks, the HVAC systems must be turned off, which can leave you without air conditioning or heat for extended periods. It’s smart to keep extra water stored for yourself and your pets just in case. We share this experience not to discourage anyone, many residents are happy here, but to emphasize that accountability and safety communication from management have fallen short. It shouldn’t take government intervention for resident safety to be prioritized.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Beautiful Luxury Living and Incredible Service
September 2, 2024This past weekend, I helped my son move into an apartment at The Elm as he just accepted a new job in DC. I was absolutely blown away by the luxury living and amenities provided. Furthermore, Hana, the general manager at The Elm, could not have been any more welcoming and accommodating during the move-in process. She went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly with our move. We cannot be any more appreciative! I came away more than impressed with the overall experience! Thank ...you so much Hana! - Jeff P.Property Manager Responded
September 17, 2024We’re happy that you’re happy! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a positive review. We’re so thankful for customers like you.

I can't wait to move out
February 5, 2024I can't wait to move out. This building used to be a great place to call home, but since AIR Properties has taken over my experience has been very disappointing. I've lived here for a year and will not be renewing my lease! Fees added or increased since AIR properties took over: 1) Residents are expected to pay a percentage of the common area utilities. 2) Luxar Package delivery service 3) Energy conservation fee 4) Pet rent increased/month 5) Increased parking fees including making nearly all ...parking assigned parking which costs significantly more. Services removed since AIR properties took over: 1) Packages are almost never logged in the system even if they make it to the designated "secured" package area. This means that packages are left all over the building and, unless you know a package was delivered for sure, you need to hunt it down on your own. 2) They have eliminated on site parking attendants so there is no one available if the gate stops working or when cars park in the 15 minute loading zone overnight. 3) Front desk staff is not very helpful and often not at the front desk. When I asked why a package wasn't logged into the system I got the response "well that's not our job". 4) There are no longer any printers available for residents. Additionally there have been several major leaks in the building in the past few months. Issues like this can happen from time to time and are not AIR's fault however, their response has been less than stellar.Property Manager Responded
February 8, 2024Hello Alex, thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry your experience didn’t match your expectations. I am looking in to this matter and I will circle back with you. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly with any questions or concerns at ICanHelp@AirCommunities.com, I’d be happy to assist you. -Susan
Property Manager Responded
February 8, 2024Hello Alex, thank you for sharing your experience and feedback. It is our loyal residents that help us grow and become a better community. We apologize if at any time you felt our customer service did not meet your expectations. Any concerns expressed or that may have been previously missed, we would certainly take the time to address. Since AIR Communities has been managing The Elm we have made changes to improve the resident experience. After an audit of some previous and current services we found they were either not cost effective and they were discontinued or we needed to increase some fees. Our package delivery service called Luxor one does have a customer service number to call if a resident is experiencing any concerns. Our front desk staff have a variety of duties geared towards our residents and if not found at the desk they are most likely assisting another resident. We would like to address your concerns with you directly. Please reach out to our Community Manager or to ...ICanHelp@AirCommunities.com with any questions or concerns. - Susan

Beautiful Building, but...
January 11, 2024Between the frequent water leaks and related noisy/dirty drywall renovations, sloooow and broken elevators, the difficulty of getting deliveries (drivers cannot figure out where to deliver!), construction and street noise, and poor security, I am not sure where to start. Oh, rent hikes, that was the last straw for me. Buh bye, Elm. You are a beautiful building but you need a lot of work.Property Manager Responded
January 17, 2024Hello, thank you for sharing your experience and feedback. We agree with you in that our building is beautiful.. We are sorry to hear you had concerns while a resident with us. Our focus is always on the resident experience and we often request feedback. We regret that we missed an opportunity to take advantage of your feedback. With lease renewal offers using market rates some pricing did increase. At The Elm we price our rent to be competitive with similar communities in our area. By doing so we can remain dedicated to providing our residents access to a variety of amenities and a staff that strives to create an exceptional experience to all our future, current and past residents. Please reach out to our Community Manager or to ICanHelp@AirCommunities.com with further concerns or questions. - Susan

Terrible since new owners (Air Communities) took over
September 11, 2023After having a neighbor move in with a dog that won't stop barking (and can be heard clearly in my entire apartment), the management would not let me out of my lease. Additionally, they have instituted new fees including one to use the package receiving service (?!) that we never agreed to. Would steer clear, there are other nice apartment buildings in the areaProperty Manager Responded
October 10, 2023Hello. Thank you for sharing your experience and feedback. We are sorry to hear about your neighbor’s dog that barks and is a disruption. Here at The Elm we will make all efforts to resolve any situation where noise level is louder than acceptable apartment living standards. It is certainly understandable that above average noise can be disruptive, and our team always works with all neighbors involved to address these matters. Resolutions will be looked at and offered as necessary based on review of any reports of loud noise. We do charge an annual fee for receiving packages in secured lockers. In The Elm’s lease agreement all additional charges or fees are provided. We understand that allocated monthly expenses may vary for everyone. As such, we are extremely mindful to disclose all charges and fees with customers prior to signing a lease agreement. We would be happy to review these with you at any time. I was unable to locate your information in our customer records to get an ...opportunity to look into your feedback more specifically. Please contact me at ICanHelp@aircommunities.com so we can assist further. We look forward to hearing from you. - Susan

July 1, 2023Everything is awesome except not enough light in the apartment, the dog play area smells bad, the key fob doesn't always work, and on the east side one of the elevators doesn't go to the 30th floorProperty Manager Responded

June 30, 2023I moved to The Elm, Bethesda in early June. It’s a wonderful experience. The location itself is impeccable which is close to the center of the city with restaurants, coffee shops, stores, banks, supermarkets surrounding. Metro station is within walking distance. The amenities are great especially the gymnasium which has lots of equipment and a yoga room I used it almost everyday, not to mention the swimming on the top. The staff here are nice and friendly especially in the front desk. ...They even held some community activities such as neighborhood breakfast gathering, ice cream party, etc. to facilitate tenants to know each other. It offers convenient app which enable the tenants to swipe to the doors and elevators. In a net shell, it’s a great apartment which is worthy to stay .Property Manager Responded

June 29, 2023The units are gorgeous with incredible views, the staff is extremely helpful and friendly, and the amenities (fully equipped gym, pool and relaxing area on the 28th floor, grills in the 17th, etc) are an unexpected treat. Location is right next to a Tatte and metro, so that's another major plus. Tenants are probably sometimes the issue. Some don't clean after themselves in the shard spaces we're lucky to have, leaving broken glass on the floor (to the delight of the hard-working cleaning crew), ...or some with smaller dogs not leashing them inside, unaware how this can cause an issue with responsible owners who leash their bigger dogs. I also wish some of the amenities were open earlier.Property Manager Responded
