Fantastic space, complete privacy and security. Wonderful upscale neighborhood with super easy access to Metro and bus lines. The check in process was very straightforward and independent and required no direct involvement from Host. Excellent family grocery stores within a couple of blocks both with outstanding selections of most of what you would need to have on hand including impressive produce selection. This apartment gave me a homey feeling that I loved and looked forward to at the end of long days out and about. The best part is probably the feeling I had of living like a local in a beautiful and extremely safe neighborhood where I felt comfortable walking alone anytime. Lisa was wonderful to accommodate a couple of my special requests before the trip and i was delighted to find at least 20 wooden clothing hangars when I arrived! Her Teapot heats water faster than I have ever experienced and her clothes iron is of excellent quality and is immaculate on the bottom. The apartment also has a very efficient heating system and a washing machine! I loved it and I will be back very soon.
