I was visiting DC for work, so I didn't have enough time to explore the area. However, Richard provided lots of suggestions for restaurants and things to do in the area. Also, while the apartment was advertised as being quiet, this exceeded my expectations. I was able to sleep through the Caps' Stanley Cup win, even though the apartment is in the heart of downtown. My colleagues staying at a nearby hotel were kept awake by this, but I hardly noticed. (Caveat - I was incredibly tired all week. Otherwise, I probably would have joined the celebrations.)
