The Hudson and DeSoto 1425 P Street Northwest, Washington, District of Columbia 20005

"My brother and I lived at the DeSoto in the summer of 2022. The apartment was clean and we never had any issues with bugs or vermin. The front desk was always responsive (for guest parking, mail, and sending someone within just a few hours to fix our sink.) I highly recommend living at the DeSoto."

"Great complex. I've lived in the DeSoto for seven years and in the Hudson a year before that. Maintenance is responsive--almost always responding before a business day has passed. The leasing/management office is friendly and great. And by the way the neighborhood! A grocery store and pharmacy across the street, a gym around the corner, dozens of restaurants in easy walking distance--it's lively but not wild, a place where you tend to make friends with people."

"The Hudson & Desoto apartment buildings are cheaply constructed apartment buildings with few amenities, but they charge extremely high rates for rent and market themselves as “luxury apartments.” The building is plagued by plumbing issues. I’ve lived in two different units and in both of them, I’ve had several issues with the washing/drying machine and sink backing up randomly and flooding water all over the apartment. The plumbers have had to come several times because the water backs up from the other apartment units since the pipes of the building were built too narrow. The property manager herself has confirmed the pipes are too narrow for the building but that they are not interested in spending the money that would be required to fix these plumbing issues. Despite being a luxury apartment building, there is no gym, pool, or other amenities you might expect for a building that charged about $3,000 in rent for a one bedroom apartment. Most of the staff is nice, but the property manager is unhelpful and unresponsive to emails. The walls of the building must be pretty thin as well because you can hear everything that happens outside. Another issue I’ve had in both units I’ve lived in is that there are gaps between the windows and doors, so heating the apartment in the winter gets expensive, and when it snows a lot, water seeps into the apartment. Would not recommend this building. I’m looking forward to moving out!"

"I lived here for a year and if I wasn't leaving DC I would live here again. I have never lived in an apartment where every single maintenance request was fixed in less than 24 hours huge shout out to the maintenance team. Loved the apartments loved the staff, Uwe always goes the extra step for the tenants. Neighborhood is great and safe, right next to a high end gym and a whole foods what else could you ask for? Easy access to any of the best parts of DC. So this doesn't sound like a shill review I will say that the grill on the roof is working only like 80% of the time but that's actually my literal only complaint."
