Would definitely recommend staying at this studio. The space is spacious and literally steps from the Metro for easy access to any place you want to go. Marias neighborhood is very cool and many good restaurants and bakeries nearby, as well as a nice park to relax in. Set back from the street so very quiet and fast internet. Frederic is a great host who responded quickly to emails and stopped by when we couldn't figure out how to make something work. Overall, a great experience.
