Lori goes absolutely above and beyond with this apartment and her hospitality, making this an easy 10/10 experience. Her place right up by Malcom X/Meridian Hill Park is the perfect stay for any couple wanting to see how homey and lovely DC can be.
I booked this place for my parents to sleep for their visit and the space is the perfect size for two people, though it could accommodate three. It was immaculately clean and cozy. The kitchen is well equipped too, with pots pans, etc for cooking in. Lori had so kindly provided snacks and coffee pods as well.The big TV works great, the bed was comfy, the in-unit washer and dryer are practically brand new, and the outdoor patio area was the perfect morning coffee spot before a huge day of sightseeing.
There's a corner store not 50 steps away for any missing essentials, and the main drag of Columbia Heights (+ the metro) a short walk away as well, so it really is primely located.
The icing on the cake is how attentive, helpful, and kind Lori is-- she (a 3rd-generation DC native who KNOWS the city) made herself totally available for any questions or concerns during our rental period and is also just so lovely to have a conversation with!
Everything willing, we will be back! But only if the place isn't completely booked up in the future.
