Great apartment with a fabulously convenient location. It was very cool getting to stay in such a historic part of town. Apartment was clean with all the requisite amenities! The area felt safe to walk around late at night as well, which is something you often don’t think about but is an important consideration for any stay.
Some highlights: if you like Blues music, DC’s historic blues bar, Blues Alley Club, is a two minute walk away in an alley that was named for the club. If you like Italian food, il Canale is just around the block. It’s definitely worth the visit for some excellent Neapolitan food.
A couple notes: if you have mobility issues or a lot of luggage, keep in mind the apartment is up three flights of stairs. Also, the sounds outside weren’t a huge issue for us, but if you’re a light sleeper expect to hear dumpsters being opened/emptied very early in the morning and sometimes late at night.
Mónica was a fantastic host and was very communicative about our stay. Thanks for helping us explore DC!
