Fosca was very quick in responding before my arrival, offering suggestions, etc. and with wifi problems during my stay. Purple sheets and a towel and a box of Pims were waiting for me...all of these made me happy! The location is great for walking and accessing Metro. The space is smaller than it seemed from pics but very clean and if you want to cook or bring in food, she has all you need to enjoy it. Steps to the 3rd floor are pretty steep but carpeted and there is a hallway light and big windows if needed. She left a box of Pims for me and that was a special treat. Construction next door is a problem unless you are out from 8am on. There is a big window but no ventilation and it faces a wall, sadly. This apt is in a very safe neighborhood and building! The cafe across the street is a bit expensive but a perfect place to drink wine or coffee and people watch!
