Matthias's place is a sweet studio in Palisades, an area about 15 mins above Georgetown. There is no metro but a great bus system that will take you directly into Georgetown (D5) or to Metro Center area (D6). It is a beautiful peaceful neighborhood with lovely choices for restaurants and a quiet drink. The apartment itself is quite spacious with a comfortable bed and seating. I appreciated Matthias' prompt communications and helpful tips. All in all a good experience.
