My girlfriend and I stayed in Farida's apartment for 6 nights during our recent trip to DC. As we were running the half marathon and were looking to reconnect with old friends we needed a home away from home. We found this and more in Farida's place. It has all the amenities you would need for a longer term stay such as a washing machine and a drier as well as a variety of kitchen appliances. It also has a great shower and separate bathroom.The space is beautifully decorated, extremely clean and light (many windows looking out onto the wonderful garden and pool) and as it has its own entrance it allows you to come and go freely without disturbing anybody. Farida is a fantastic and kind host who responds to messages quickly, pays attention to detail (there were wonderful flowers around the apartment) and is very much committed to ensure you have everything you need. Moreover, when we arrived we found not only breakfast essentials but also a bottle of wine waiting for us in the fridge :). We found the location of the apartment perfect for our needs as well: its a very short 5 min walk to Cleveland Park metro station allowing you to get anywhere in the city very quickly. Farida's apartment is also very close to Cathedral Heights with a variety of restaurants and shops. We very much hope we will be able to stay with Farida again in the future.
