Great apartment but the last couple months have been rough with construction work/ frequent water shutoffs. Also, the business center has been closed for several months. I would’ve rated it 5 otherwise.

I had a lease with Ashby, then Elme for 3 years. I decided to end the lease because I was moving out of state and I’m so grateful I did. Bona, Debbie, Paul, Clever, and the entire front desk/maintenance staff were more than AMAZING throughout my entire lease. Prompt with responses, maintenance requests, friendly, and helpful always. Upon my move out in November was around the same time management was switching over to Cortland. In the last few weeks of my lease there they changed the email address for requests. Email response time turned from same day to no response at all. This happened a couple of times, but I summed it up to them being busy because of all the changes - no biggie. I moved everything out in November and awaited return of my security deposit. I sent a couple of emails in January following up on the deposit with no response. I did receive the check in January, but I received 2 copies. I waited about a week to deposit it and then received a third check. Figuring the second and third were err

A very well managed apartment community that is very secure with exceptional maintenance, cleaning staff and concierge front desk, services. The building offers underground parking and a non-smoking environment with numerous additional amenities. The overall this apartment community equals or exceeds those found in many high end and costlier condominium complexes. Clearly something you should consider when looking for an apartment in the McLean area.

I’ve been living at The Ashby at McLean for almost five months now, and so far, it’s been a really comfortable experience. One of the best things about it is the location—it’s right in the center of McLean, with easy access to shops, restaurants, and main roads. The area is very walkable, quiet, and feels safe, making it a good fit for both families and working professionals. The building is well taken care of, and the maintenance team is quick and efficient. The front desk and leasing office have also been friendly and helpful whenever I’ve had questions or needed support. The gym and common spaces are kept clean and are nice to have, though updating some of the amenities could make them even better. One thing that could be improved is the layout and number of light fixtures in the apartment—it could be better distributed. Also, parking can be a bit tight during busy hours. All in all, The Ashby is a great option if you’re planning to live in McLean. It offers a good mix of convenience, comfort, and service.

I’ve lived at The Ashby for over a year and the location is perfect. Not too much traffic, yet still about 13 minutes from Tyson's. The neighborhood is peaceful and the Manager's; Debbie & Bona, are always going above and beyond to assist! Whenever I do have a maintenance concern, Carlos resolves it immediately. The Concierge Staff; Paul & Earnest always notify me when my packages are ready for pickup...not to mention, my daughter enjoys the huge pool and the gorgeous courtyard is my favorite part. What a wonderful place to live. - C.P.
