Connie's apartment worked very well for my stay, since it was quiet & peaceful & just a few blocks from the Metro. (Just plan to arrive before dark, since this is a quiet neighborhood with streets that look alike and have no streetlighting.) Connie works hard to provide you with the amenities you need, and then some. I really appreciated the eggs, cream and butter in the refrigerator!! Greektown is around the corner (with lots of little restaurants, a pet-food store, a good kitchen supply store and more). As others have noted, the ceilings in the apartment are very, very low. People over 5'5" should be prepared to duck. Lovely little backyard. Delightful dogs and people.
