The pros of this apartment are many, my fiance and I stayed here for a month in June and became very familiar with it's cozy nooks.
Pros:
-in a hip neighborhood right off three different Metro lines (4, 8 & 9)
-very easy walk to tons of grocery stores, restaurants, and bars
-lots of windows, skylights, and airy space in a small apartment
-washer/dishwasher/moderate amount of kitchen items
-comfy bed
-elevator
-faces the courtyard, not the street
-two toilets
-great monthly discount rate
-cleaning person once every week or so included
Cons:
-would be v. difficult to stay here if you were tall
-beamed ourselves a few times on the exposed rafters
-no shower, just a bathtub with a handheld thingie
-lack of essential kitchen utensils (knives, tongs, spatula) but should not be a problem if you will eat most meals out
-neighbors downstairs smoked often and a noticeable amount
Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Bianca's. Although we never met, she was responsive and understanding when there were problems with the apartment. We burned the counter top with a hot espresso pot and Bianca was kind enough to work with us to fix the issue fairly and quickly.
