Loud, Smoke-filled w/Poor Management
February 24, 2025 - Review from Apartments.com
Trellis House is a terrible place to live if you value a marijuana-FREE, quiet residence. This complex was under CIM management when I moved here in 2021. Then, the building generally lived up to its claims of: Luxury living. But now, no way. For starters, management rented a retail space to a gym called CrossFit back in early 2023, which is housed on the first floor. That business drops loud weights day and night. It's so bad, the entire building shakes. If you don't believe me, come here and ...
take a peak at when people are using that gym. Then, come inside and you will feel this building shake. It's like living in a construction zone--awful! Second, there's weed smoke throughout this complex. Trellis House, under new management (Berkshire Residential Investments), decided sometime in 2024 to subsidize many of the apartments here to Howard University students. I would estimate that 60-75% of all the tenants here are Howard University students--meaning, the building is overrun with unsupervised children. These students, unsupervised, smoke weed, party after midnight, play loud music as early (or late) as 4 AM, and generally act like what they are, children. Management is completely incompetent and will gaslight you by claiming that it's YOUR responsibility to police the weed/cigarette smoking in what's supposed to be a smoke-free building. This building has so much potential, but it's being squandered due to incompetence. If you are considering moving here, DON'T if you value peace and quiet. This building, as it currently stands, is nothing more than a LOUD, weed-filled Howard dormitory. STAY AWAY!
