We lived at Christine's for 3 weeks. We had a great time and Christine is a great host.
The apartment is fantastic. It is big with two rooms, a bathroom, a nice large living room. And a separate kitchen space. It is super clean. And the furniture is all new and very nice. The apartment itself as a whole is new. New appliances, decorations, bath fittings etc. All super good.
The area is a dream. We were there in the fall and saw the beautiful fall colors. There are plenty of parks in 5-minute walking distance. The lakeside park is particularly nice.
Commuting is easy. There is a bus that picks right in front of the apartment and takes you to the Metro in less than 10 minutes. Its super cheap too. Return Fare only 6.5 dollars (works on both metro and bus) and kids up to 11 are free!
Christine is super nice. She lives next door and promptly responds to any queries. She is very accommodative and super helpful!
We loved our stay and will definitely be back!
