i5 Union Market

This apartment has a gorgeous lounge area with a beautiful rooftop pool. The gym is lovely, equipped with great machines and it’s very spacious. The rooms are a great modern look. It’s in a great spot right outside of union market! 10/10 recommendation

I absolutely love living here! The community is welcoming, the management team is responsive and friendly, and the amenities are fantastic. The apartment itself is modern, well-maintained, and feels like home. The location is also super convenient, with everything I need close by. I couldn’t be happier with my choice to live here! Shout out to Monchelle, Ashley, Nicole and Mike ! Oh and all the cleaning staff !! You all are great ! Thank you!

i5 Union Market has been an amazing resident experience. From the Staff support to the building amenities including: gym, infinity pool, lounge, rooftop, office and conference rooms. i5 Union Market has absolutely everything to make your resident experience the best in Washington, DC.

Living at i5 has been an amazing experience! Not only is it an amazing location but the amenities of the building are exceptional. The leasing office and front desk personnel always go above and beyond for their residents!!

Love living here! Leasing office is very accommodating to your needs. And the location is perfect. Right next to Trader Joe’s, union market, MBTrail, and metro

My co-living experience was fantastic. From the moment I arrived almost three years ago, the warm and welcoming nature of the apartment made me feel right at home. i5 is a fantastic community, and I appreciate all the events they host to unite residents. The building offers multiple amenities, from a coffee machine to one of the most complete gyms I have ever worked out in.

I am having a great time living at i5 so far. The gym and common spaces are amazing, and the staff is so kind! I also really like the neighborhood and the proximity to Union Market :)

Great place! Staff is helpful, the building and apartments are well-maintained, and the location is convenient to bus and metro transit.

Updating my review due to reflect the change of staffing in the leasing office. Since Sam and Justine left at the end of 2020, the leasing office has gone from a 5-star experience to a 1-star experience. It took tweeting at Bozzuto corporate to finally get my lease renewal offer after a full month of trying to get it directly from the leasing office (and also a full month after I was required to give notice if I was moving, per the current lease). I then had to wait another month (until the day before my lease was set to expire) to receive my actual new lease to sign, and only received that after tweeting at Bozzuto corporate AGAIN. I've lived in several other buildings in my decade in DC and have never received such procrastinated/delayed service from a leasing office before and I'm sure they're losing tenants this way. I've overheard a couple people say they were moving to other buildings just up the street instead. There's also other small issues, like them not approving posts to the building's resident portal (virtual bulletin board) rendering it useless for the past several months. Since I agreed to renew, the building has also experienced a ton of really inconvenient service disruptions recently. A few weeks ago there was a scheduled power outage all morning on a Monday (which started late and ran until almost 2pm when so many people are still working from home). Then the building's internet went out for an entire weekend and several random weekdays, which affects things like package notifications, freight elevator reservations, and internet connection on the gym machines like the Peloton -- not to mention anyone who relies on the apartments' built-in wifi. Yesterday we were notified that there would be an emergency water shutoff all day today, from 8am-4pm (could this not have been done overnight?). To make matters worse, management never notified us that the work was finished until I inquired because the water pressure never came back in my kitchen. I was told by the front desk that maintenance would come up to look (do they not believe me? It was clearly a result of the water shutoff), and they never showed up, nor was the issue resolved. So now I will continue not having adequate water in my sink tonight. Also, anyone planning to take a concession should be prepared to pay it back in full if you break the lease. This is not disclosed anywhere until you receive your lease (which they aren't sending in a timely fashion based on my experience and other reviews, so that's not helpful). The cleaning staff is still great but as someone in a google review mentioned, the carpets in the hallways are all disgustingly stained (and that's not something the staff can deal with without special equipment -- they do keep-up all the hard surfaces and the gym really well). Things like carpets and windows have not been cleaned once in the year I've lived here. The building really needs to hire a service for those. I have not used the pool at all since I moved in, but I plan to try during a weekday now that the pandemic is settling down. On weekends, some party promoter(?) hosts pool parties on the roof and promotes his clothing line (which frankly looks like club/escort service branding), despite the lease saying business shouldn't be conducted in the apartment unless it has been authorized. It's not clear if he actually knows his guests or if they're just random strangers he's invited into the building. I'm not comfortable with that, so I've avoided the roof on weekends. [You can see i5 tagged in all these posts on Instagram.] Otherwise, the apartments themselves are still nice and the location can't be beat. The front desk staff is great and I can't speak highly enough of Nicole, Wanda, and the others. The gym is well-kept. Bumping down to 3-stars to reflect the large decline in management between 2020 to 2021.

They don't care for your safety, the only reason I got out alive is because after 5 months of abuse I finally started to make it i5's problem. They moved me into a co-living unit of an insane person WHO THEY WERE IN THE PROCESS OF EVICTING. She harassed me for 7 months, even starting a fire in our apartment, but staff refused to do anything other than send her more eviction notices. She put a screeching sound on full blast with her door closed then left, when I brought staff to turn it off, they refused to do so. When she intentionally caused a fire in the apartment and broke my restraining order against her, I had her arrested and staff let her back in the next day. She wrote stuff all over our walls and harassed me and they said there was absolutely nothing, 0%, they could do about it. They never even reached out to her to ask her to stop, even after telling me almost every time I complained that they would. The staff are liars, but working in a place that toxic will have that effect. After 7 months they finally let me out of my lease at no penalty, but only after months of telling me I had to pay a $500 moving fee or sign another year long lease (or pay more for a shorter lease in a worse apartment). They didn't tell me the pool was only open in the summer, or that they were about to get rid of the unlimited free coffee. They basically bait-n-switched me, then delayed to get as much cash and time out of me as possible before I threatened legal action. It's also incredibly dangerous, I watched I guy get shot and die outside my first month there. Almost exactly 1 year later 3 cops and the assailant were shot in the lobby, with the assailant dying. Every single night I was kept awake by the echoing through the streets and up the apartment building of car horns, physical and verbal fights, crazy people talking to themselves, catcalling, large groups of drunk people yelling or fighting, fireworks, shootings, etc. Literally my last night there sitting on the balcony, as I stood up to walk back inside, somebody shot a bottle rocket firework out of their car and it exploded next to my 12th floor balcony. It was an obvious sign, I couldn't help but smile because I was getting the heck out of that vipers den.

Building events are essential for fostering community engagement and promoting a sense of belonging among residents. Whether it's a grand opening, a holiday celebration, or a community gathering, these events create opportunities for neighbors to connect, share experiences, and build relationships. With careful planning and creativity, building events can enhance the overall atmosphere of a property, making it more than just a place to live but a vibrant community where residents feel valued and connected. I especially love the care that Monchelle and Greg provide to residents!

I wan't to express and highlight Silvana Liza for her outstanding hard work . Must say she delivers great customer service along with a positive attitude.

Current tenant. Absolutely do not live here. My bike was STOLEN in April FROM THE LOCKED BIKE ROOM the bike was chain locked not U locked. They (management) told me to call the police and have the police come to view footage "they had to be there to view the security footage". When I was visibly upset that it seemed no one wanted to help me find who was responsible, the front desk concierge said out loud "I don't have time for this this morning." And directed me to Miriam (mgmt). When police didn't come, I was directed by Miriam to contact my renters insurance that THEY SUGGESTED when I moved in. The insurance wouldn't cover the stolen bike because it wasn't stolen directly from my apartment. I was then directed by the insurance company to TAKE ON BUZZUTO MANAGEMENT? This place is a mess. I got a covid rate on my apartment in January 2021, rent went up by 500 DOLLARS this July. I was given 4 weeks notice that it would be raised to that rate they SLIPPED A NOTE UNDER MY DOOR as notice. Also highly paternal and restrictive rules on the amenities due to young tenants who misuse the roof. Instead of restricting use for tenants who abuse amenities - ALL TENANTS are only able to use your key until 5 PM on weekdays for the roof, after which you have to leave a GOVERNMENT ISSUED ID AT THE DESK to receive a loan key. This rule also applies to ALL HOURS ON WEEKENDS. To secure a room for say, a birthday party with a few friends, it's a 500 DOLLAR DEPOSIT. Go elsewhere. I'm looking forward to going elsewhere as soon as I can, the amenities are not worth it.

As a neighbor of i5 I can promise you will want to avoid this building. They allow their residents to hold raging parties on their rooftops well into the night. You'll never be able to enjoy the rooftop amenity it as a resident unless you're part of a raging party day or night. The residents and management company have no regard for the peace of this city. Avoid this building.

Great amenities and new place. However, Quarter is not responsive to your request, I'd rather go through i5 if possible for any request. Now that Quarter is no longer here, things seem a little out of the place with i5 try to take over while working to find new co-living. But overall experience is great. Friendly concierges and there are always people to clean the place and high touch surfaces. They took out the hand sanitizer in the lobby, I hope they put it back up for safety purposes

Wow! I had been searching everywhere for affordable, comfortable, and short-term living in Washington, D.C. and this property was the only one to meet all my standards. I am especially thankful to leasing agent Cody Prescott Kindle! He made the process incredibly easy and reassured me throughout -- I had a lot of questions haha! I would absolutely recommend this company and property! Great leasing agents and incredible living arrangements!

This place has gone down hill in the last 6 months. The new property manager and leasing team are HORRIBLE. Water, electric, and internet are randomly turned off in the building and we receive a last minute notice. They are unresponsive to emails and never pick up the phone. Not to mention that they are just rude as hell. The only nice people that work in this building are Nicole and Miss Wanda at the front desk and the cleaning crew. Idk what happened to Sam, Justina, and Julius, but they are missed! Don't waste ya money at this bozzuto property.

The staff under leasing are all inconsiderate and show no sense of care for their residents. I was placed into the wrong unit and they made little to no effort in helping me.

We leased this apartment for my son and although it appears nice, the management is the worst ever. It started out ok until you move in. They are completely non-responsive (they responded to one email) and they will not take care of repairs in a timely manner. I saw reviews before he moved in about the horrible management and I hate we did not heed the warnings. This place does not care about you once you move in, period!
