I want to give this 3 1/2 stars. If your main objective is just to have a place to sleep and be out and about all day, and rely on public transportation, then this place is it. The Metro station (and bus hub) is steps away, so—smooth sailing! The bedroom was comfy, with adequate furniture and closet space, even a ceiling fan, and a window AC sufficient to cool it down. Now, about the rest of the apartment…a lot of little things: The combined living room/kitchen area, easily three times the size of the bedroom, relied on the same model of small window AC; it would fight bravely, but it could only achieve so much for cooling. The kitchen was in good shape overall, although I didn't find dish towels, so I used one of the washcloths. I also didn't find a dish-drying rack, but the top fixtures of the gas stove did the trick there. About the bathroom, there weren't any towel holders (anymore), and the showerhead had low water pressure and an odd, "fuzzy" spray pattern. The living room had some noticeable wear and tear about it. There was one small dining table with two chairs, which were both quite flimsy, and likely to come apart if you didn't pay attention. The only piece of living-room furniture besides the TV stand was a futon sofa. Its back wouldn't come all the way up, so it took one, if not both of the pillows from the bed to lean on. I will give Kevin props for a good-sized TV with cable programming, and for a good WiFi connection. Finally, about leaving your car when you go out: This really was a street-parking situation. Kevin said the two-hour limit on his block wasn't enforced, but I still was more comfortable parking two blocks farther up, outside that two-hour–limit zone.
