JD and Ed were both there to greet us when we arrived and Ed gave us a thorough orientation of the apartment and the neighborhood. He even walked us to the corner and pointed out favorite nearby restaurants. Safeway was just down the street and Glens Market for the $10 special take out dinner is a favorite of JD'S. The apartment is well appointed, stylish and has everything we needed for a week's stay. JD had further decorated it with pumpkins, gourds and corn cobs for Fall. The extra effort was much appreciated. Dupont Circle is so close by with more restaurants and subway entrance so the location can't be beat.
