I’ve had a mixed experience living at Aventine Fort Totten. The biggest advantage is the location—it’s extremely convenient, right next to the Fort Totten Metro and close to Walmart, grocery stores, and dry cleaning, which makes daily errands very easy.

That said, there are some ongoing issues that have been frustrating. The elevators break down frequently, which can be a major inconvenience. There are also often random people hanging out in the lobby, which can make the building feel less... secure. Additionally, maintenance is slow, and some requests take much longer than expected to resolve.

Overall, the location is excellent, but the building management and upkeep need improvement to match the convenience of the area. Read More

I would not live here again, unless there were actual changes to make this place better.

The amenities I haven't got around to it yet because the weather has change but I saw the pool and weight room by going in the building but when I get a chance I will take a tour.

I recommend not even applying to Aventine at Fort Totten, unless you are willing to lose excessive time and application fees at the hands of their leasing office.
I spent seven weeks in the application process and lost two application fees (multiplied by # of applicants) - because, after their delay and lack of cooperation with my first application, I was required to submit a second application to move forward. There were several weeks in the process that I both called 3-4 times and emailed once... or twice to hear nothing back. I lost count of the number of times that I was told that a callback request had been submitted on my behalf, to never be executed on their end. The leasing office is inefficient, unresponsive, and uncooperative - except for Joseph/Joe, who was assigned to my application for about two weeks and had appropriate response times. Altogether, I am out $175 in application fees and at least 6 hours of time in failed correspondence (beyond time spent moving the application forward) that wouldn't have been required with a more responsible leasing team.
Ultimately, I leased with a competitor because I ran out of time with the Aventine. I recommend that you go elsewhere before wasting your time and money. Read More

Need improvement with cleanliness. But great location to metro and in an upcoming neighborhood.
