We stayed here 27 days. It is an apartment in a building that (I was told) is all AirBNBs. So a lot of people coming in and out. While our unit doesn’t have a lot of changeover, that doesn’t appear to be true for the other units in the building.
The location is excellent. Less that 10 minutes to the DuPont Circle metro, and many, many bars, restaurants, and shops nearby, even though the area around the unit is residential.
As to the unit itself, our feelings are mixed. The positives are that is was well stocked with kitchen amenities, shampoo, laundry and dishwasher detergent, etc. The unit was clean (at least surface clean), and the management company for the apartment is responsive (we had our issues fixed the same day). The bed is big and is on the soft side. The apartment feels roomy and not cramped. The unit has many windows and gets lots of light and is on the first floor of the building, so not much stair climbing.
There are several negatives. As has been noted by other reviewers, the furniture is not what is pictured. While functional, it is not nearly as nice. Also some of the rugs pictured are missing. There is only one useful mirror which is medicine cabinet, but it is mounted so high that I, at 5 feet tall, can only see my neck and above.
However, the unit really needs a deep clean and repainting – windows are filthy and some screens are torn; white areas around switches have gone gray from repeated touches. The hardwood floors, although they have been swept, have embedded dirt (wipe up some water from the floor and the paper towel is dark gray). Chipped paint is everywhere. The heating system (we were here in February) is very loud when it comes on. Also, perhaps due to the windows in the bedroom, it is always several degrees colder than the living room. The biggest problem is noise. Any noise from the outside, whether the front door, hallway, or outside is completely audible. And since the unit above also has hardwood floors, we heard every footstep, scrape of moving furniture, and often the conversations. If you’re looking for a quiet residential unit, this is not a good choice. If you’re looking for convenience and being in the city, this is a good choice.
