Lyric 440K Apartment

Great apartments to rent. Close to downtown and major highways to get out of the city. Safe neighborhood, controlled access, friendly and helpful staff, and good shops & food nearby.

Echoing the previous reviewers: the utility fees are egregiously high. Every time the concern is raised, management does not provide a real answer. They blame it on the new utility service they are using, but it sure seems like they are trying to pass off their administrative bills onto the renters. They went from charging $20/mo. in 2020 for trash/sewer/water total to $60+ starting in 2021. And the amount has gone up every month, including for months where we were out of the city and didn't use an ounce of water. Our latest bill was more than $74. This is absolutely absurd. Residents have been complaining for months without any transparency or action from management; literally not a single email to acknowledge the situation.

I have been living at Lyric since 2019. At first, things were great, decent pricing for the area and great common areas. But within the last year, Lyric switched to a different utilities company, Conservice, that is now charging residents 3-4 times the normal amount for water, sewer, and trash. We're talking going from ~$20-$30/month to ~$90-$100+/month for a 690sqft ONE BEDROOM (it's even higher for bigger rooms). This has been happening for 4-5 months.

Residents have reached out to management inquiring about these increases, but only received vague responses that they are conducting a "complex" investigation. There is no transpare

I lived in a 1BR apartment at Lyric for a year. I would’ve stayed longer, but wound up leaving the DC area at the end of my lease. Lyric is reasonably priced in one of the most walkable areas of the city. Pros: - Great location. Near Safeway, A Baked Joint, Wiseguy Pizza, Baan Siam, and several other restaurants and eateries. - Super walkable. Close to downtown, the Mall, the Mt. Vernon Triangle and Chinatown Metro stops, and a ZipCar. - Built in 2014, so you’ll encounter relatively few maintenance issues. - Amenities include a pool, gym, and outdoor terrace. - 24-hour security. - Smart thermostat. - Keyless fob to enter apartment and amenities. - Clean common areas. - Garbage and recycling is quickly removed from the trash rooms. - Pest-free. Prior to moving in, I saw several reviews co

The low score is due to the overnight staff she is rude and should be working at a gas station.
