  The apartment is in a great neighborhood but that is as far as my praises can go. The elevator was out of service for weeks at a time, repeatedly. This made groceries, pets, and stairs a challenge regularly. The cost of the apartments are high for the area. Other locations near by have way better prices and wont be located directly above a late night bar. Yes, there is drunk street singing until 4am many weekday and weekend nights. If you work in the morning, this is not for you. My apartment was a 1.5 bedroom and had only 1 closet in the bathroom, none in the bedrooms. The ceiling to floor windows are great for light but directly face a Whole Foods green neon sign that illuminate your windows all night. Breaking your lease on good terms results in an additional month or rent charged as a fee as well as a 30 day charge, so if you need to change your lease you will owe 2 months rent when leaving, this additional month was mind blowing. They also never shut off the power causing additional power bills as they have not rented my apartment yet and request you don't turn off the power until they have rented your space. Packages for Desoto constantly get lost and misplaced as we have a locked door with no concierge, unlike is advertised. My packages were constantly left in the hall way not locked in the mail room. Or were given to the wrong people, I had multiple packages opened and returned to the Hudson front desk as the front desk workers gave my packages to Hudson residence while it was clearly marked with MY name and the Desoto. Getting help in the evenings is impossible, 2 of the evening workers watch movies on their phone and refuse to get up to help with any task such as mail (the mail is 5 feet away, a very short walk). If you only have the option between the Hudson and Desoto, choose the Hudson. It has a concierge, multiple elevators, and a much nicer roof top. Living at the Desoto makes you feel like the neglected child, compared to the perks of the Hudson for the same price. Great location but I'm SO glad to be leaving. Hate to write a negative review since I spent so much time living in that concrete home.

  We're continually getting overcharged for things they've done/forgotten - the valet trash that doesnt come, the a/c & heating that doesnt work, renters insurance that's already paid. If you don't want to be paying 1800+ for a less that 700 sq ft of useable room, I wouldn't recommend living here. Maintenance used to be really awesome and reliable but unfortunately as they squander the money here, the poorer of a place this establishment has been to live. The people that live here are great though, they're just leaving because it's become too expensive & unlivable as the front office continues to ignore our calls & management upcharges everything possible.

  My experience has been very positive. Setting up the lease with management was smooth, the building is well run, and the community is friendly. I enjoy the location and I feel fortunate to live here. Thank you to the kind staff and team that make it all happen every day.

  I've been here for 10 years, and I love the experience, the staff and the location. I once moved out, only to move back in :) After all these years, it has a distinct family feel for me - getting to know the staff, the other residents, and the regulars at all of the nearby locations on P Street has been wonderful.

  I’ve been living at the Hudson for many years and it is a great place to live. Hudson Management and staff are engaging and professional and respond quickly to tenant needs. Although not many amenities, for an older property it offers a great rooftop, parking, and storage. The concierge keeps our packages safe. The Hudson provides a safe community of neighbors in the best neighborhood in the city.
