Terry couldn’t have been more gracious. Fortunately she was home to greet us when we arrived, and what a warm greeting it was. She clearly went to a great deal of effort to make the apartment as inviting and comfortable as could be. The bed was dreamy to sleep in at the end of our long days of touring the city. On the few cool nights we had, it was a special treat to have a fireplace. The sitting area was ever so comfortable and conducive to reading and relaxing. It was especially great to have a well stocked kitchen. I managed to make a homemade soup from ingredients purchased at the Eastern Market .I loved the fact that this was so close. It was also terrific to be so near to both the Metro and the Circulator Bus. We availed ourselves of the restaurants and health food market on 8th St often throughout our stay. Terry gave us some pointers on where to go and what to see that made our time in the city even more enjoyable. She encouraged us to visit the café at the Old Naval Hospital, which is right down the street and is ever so delightful. She also suggested that we get library cards for The Library of Congress, which we were already planning to visit. We didn’t know this was possible!
We did find that the Wi-Fi connection was inconsistent. This might be an issue for anyone who needed to get work done in the apartment, which we did not. In fairness, we are not entirely clear that some of the slow internet response wasn’t related to our devices. Our laptop has had this challenge in other places we’ve stayed.
In summary, we would not hesitate in the least to return to Terry’s home if she would have us and we would most certainly recommend it to anyone we know who is looking for a place to stay in D.C. Thank you again Terry for all your care and thoughtfulness.
