The place was as described. Only after booking, I realized that there was no stove, but we actually didn’t need one.
Kristin thoughtfully provided space heaters in case it felt chilly. She was quick to clarify some questions for me.
There is no good sound isolation in the basement, and you can hear the family upstairs talking and walking. It was no big deal for us as we really needed a reasonably priced, clean place for two adults and a child to sleep, and a safe place to park our car for a day while we are exploring the downtown Washington.
The walk to the metro station is about 18 minutes. It is a better value to drive your car and park at the metro if you have two people or more. In this case, plan to leave earlier as the parking lot can be full on weekdays. The bus stop is right across the street from the apartment, the fare is $2 per person.
Overall, we had a comfortable stay and a good night sleep.
