NOVEL South Capitol

I’ve lived here for a full year now and am still getting lots of sensitive mail from previous tenants (bank statements, tax forms, insurance documents, etc) and have asked several times if someone could reach out to these previous tenants just to notify them of all of the important mail that has been delivered here. I’ve written “return to sender; not at this address” on at least a hundred pieces of mail and put them back in the mail slot but i still keep getting tons of mail for them every time I check my mailbox. No one in the leasing office has been able to explain to me why they are unwilling to attempt to contact the previous tenants. If I were those previous tenants, I would want to know and would appreciate some kind of outreach or message about it. It doesn’t convey much care for the people who live here if no one is willing to make any effort to address something like that. It’s not that difficult to write an email or make a phone call.

The people who help keep the building up and running are fantastic and are always willing to help!! The amenities are also great and always clean and up to date.

I have loved living at Novel! The amenities are taken care of very well, the maintenance response time is quick, and the front desk and leasing office are all very helpful.

I recommend this building to everyone of my friends who talk about moving. Best management of anywhere I’ve ever lived. The 24/7 market is HUGE deal for us too!

Management is very helpful. Anytime I’ve had any problems, they’ve been quick to respond and solve my apartment issues. They have 24 hour concierge which makes me feel safe and comfortable. I also appreciate that the elevators are always working, as I know this has been an issue in other buildings.

Novel once again reigns supreme for Navy Yard apartments. Great building with great staff, events, location, maintenance, and more. A great place to live!

Decided to renew my lease because the staff and facilities here are exceptional. Also great sense of community while also still being very private.

I love how friendly the concierge is. They always smile and ask how I'm doing. This only makes my experience better, as everything else has been great.

We recently moved in and couldn’t be happier with Novel South Capitol. The amenities are fantastic, the location is convenient, the views are great, and the staff are absolutely wonderful and always eager to help!

I like Novel because it feels like a comfortable and familiar space. There’s a sense of community, but I also have the solitude I need when I want it. The location is convenient, and overall, it just feels like home.

The staff was helpful and very professional, however, some of the automated tools such as the one used the renter insurance was glitchy. I received numerous emails for me to upload my policy which I did on numerous occasions. Outside of that my experience has been great!

I love living at Novel! I’ve lived here for coming up on two years and it continues to be an outstanding community. Great staff, events and amenities.

Novel is a great community in a great area. I love the amenities and really enjoy looking at the capitol from my balcony. Very pleased overall

The building, leasing staff, maintenance crew, and receptionists are all fantastic. I have really enjoyed my time here at Novel South Capitol.

We love Novel South Capital! Always clean with a friendly and attentive staff! A secure setting steps from the Capitol! It is the perfect home in DC!

I like my apartment and the concierge has been great! The small dog park helps so much when having a dog, and there is a good community of people here.

Great community here at novel! Leasing office goes above and beyond in terms of community engagement. However, don’t expect any sort of negotiations if you’re moving in, they do not budge .

Great staff! Great location. Great atmosphere. People who love dogs, have a growth mindset, and are happy and friendly live here. Complimentary coffee from Any Day Now with your resident mug. Parking is pricier than most ($350/month).

I had a great move in experience coming from Florida with Novel! The experience was smooth and easy and I was supported by the helpful staff members.

Novel has my heart. From front desk to maintenance, we feel privileged to be in such a warm and welcoming community. We are right at home and couldn’t be happier.

Everything about living at Novel has been great, from maintenance, to the leasing office and even the front desk staff. All of the Novel staff is friendly and helpful and a special shout out to Becca and Steph!

My experience so far has been great! The few minor issues I’ve had have been handled quickly and with so much kindness! I’m loving living here and cannot say enough good things about the staff and customer service!

I love living at Novel! The building is always well kept, the team is incredibly nice, and the amenities are fantastic! It truly feels like home here! ??? #HappyLiving #CommunityLove

I’ve been living at Novel for 3 years and it’s been a wonderful experience. All of the staff and team members are so friendly and helpful, they go above and are always very professional. The amenity spaces are always clean and have been a huge benefit.

just moved in and really like this building! they have a ton of amenities and it will be even better in the summer. I am looking forward to the future living here!

Just saw a roach in my apartment. I saw one in the hallway yesterday and thought it was a cricket. I’m disgusted

I love our amenities!! Great for entertaining, co-working, and relaxation. I recommend this building to all of my friends. Still hoping they’ll apply:)

I’ve been a resident for four years and I must say, it offers a blend of modern luxury and urban convenience. Loves: 1. Location: Situated near Nationals Park, the apartment’s proximity to key attractions, dining options, and public transit is unbeatable. Whether you’re heading out for a game, a walk by the waterfront, or a night out, everything is within easy reach. 2. Amenities: The building is well-equipped with state-of-the-art facilities. The rooftop lounge with stunning views of the Capitol and the city skyline is a standout. The gym is spacious and well-maintained, making it easy to stick to fitness goals. 3. Design: The apartments are beautifully designed with modern finishes, high ceilings, and large windows that allow plenty of natural light. The kitchen and bathrooms feel luxurious, and the layouts maximize space efficiently. 4. Community: The management organizes community events, which is a nice touch for residents looking to connect with neighbors.

I had a seamless transition moving to Novel. I’m very impressed with the building, the amenities, and the staff. One of the best places to live in Navy Yard!

Novel’s faculty is so great, aware, and consistent! They are a gem in this rental region! The building is always kept nicely, all amenities work smoothly, and everyone is simply so kind!

So far, I've really appreciated how responsive and reactive the management company and concierge staff have been. I was able to get approved and move in with less than a week's notice! Excellent amenities.

We love Novel South Capitol! After looking through seven different buildings, we could not be more pleased with our choice of apartment. No Complaints!

I love it here. Everything is always so tidy, the staff is great. I’ve never had any issues with my neighbors. I’m always able to get my mail on time. The views are incredible. I just love living here.

I love Novel! The best staff and amenities all in a great location. I’ve lived here for 2 years and have been so happy since moving in and re-signing my lease. I never want to move!

The apartment has such a great vibe. Feels right at home. Everything is clean and new. No smell of smoke which was huge for us. Staff is so helpful and friendly. The rooftop is the best feature of this place and we spend almost every evening up there enjoying the views.

Going on 3 years here at Novel and wouldn’t think of re-leasing anywhere else! The staff and residents are all amazing. The amenities are also great!

I love living at Novel! So excited for the roof in the fall time. The amenities are great and so are the events they put on for residents! Maintenance is super responsive and the concierge staff is amazing.

I’ve only been a resident for 48 hours, but so far, it’s been great. All the concierges have been super kind and helpful, and the residents I’ve encountered have also been great. The location is unmatched, and the views from the roof are breathtaking.

This apartment is really nice and is a big step up from where I used to live. I appreciate that the studio I live in actually has the bedroom separated from the living room with a wall and door unlike a lot of one bedrooms a saw in this area which just had sliding glass doors as the wall. The amenities are nice and make the price worth it for the most part. The staff that works here is really friendly and helpful which makes living here a great time. The only things I would change if I could is for my room to be a little bigger and a little cheaper but it still feels like it’s worth it overall. The area here overall is pretty good with lots of things to do. I don’t really have any issues with the location and I don’t find it to really be dirty or dangerous like other places I’ve been to.

I really enjoyed living at Novel South Capitol. The amenities (gym, pool, clubhouse, etc.) are always clean, and the rooftop views are amazing. It’s in a great location. Keith, one of the concierge members is fantastic—always helpful and friendly. Though the rent is a bit high, it’s worth it for the convenience and experience.

I've had a great experience living in Novel South Capitol—so much so that, after living here for two years, I decided to renew my lease for a third year!

Great! Staff are incredibly helpful and service requests are quickly fulfilled. Love all the amenities, especially the cafe downstairs. Everyone here is friendly!

Novel South Capitol has responsive staff, stylishly decorated common spaces, and top of the line amenities. I have to say I’m happy to have moved here!

Very lovely building, clean, and quiet. Also, friendly residents. My favorite are the modern finishes in my unit. I’ve dreamt of a place just like this!

We’ve had a great experience at Novel South Capitol. The staff is always friendly, the amenities are clean and open, and there is an incredibly low noise volume.

My wife and I moved down to DC in December of 2023 and our first apartment was Novel and we absolutely love it! Great view, great staff, and the neighbors (tenants) are very welcoming! Additionally, we love the location of Novel! Perfect spot!

great building and community. wish I had a briefing on building policies on move in day to learn more about how to access different amenities

The staff has been wonderful and friendly throughout my stay! Even when the amazon hub went down I was still able to receive my packages in time! Great experience overall

I love living here, all the community spaces are well kept and service requests are taken care of quickly. Beautiful views on the roof !! Great location also.

The building is clean, mostly quiet, and the best apartment I’ve ever had. Keith at the East tower front desk is the Novel MVP. He keeps this place in check.
