Doug’s place was great! The listing is correct when it says steps from the White House. Step out the front door and look to the the right and see the White House and Washington Monument! Also very easy walking distance to the Metro, all the key Monuments and the Smithsonian. My wife and I found many good restaurants within walking distance. Perfect location for a DC visit!
The first floor apartment felt safe with separate codes to get into the building and the apartment. Kitchen was well equipped, bed was comfortable, bathroom clean!
There were no major issues, but given the $300+ per night cost (including cleaning and service fees), here’s a couple things we wanted to call out:
-Only 3 bath towels in the unit (but there is a washer/dryer combo unit available). There were two of us staying, so it would have been nice to have 6 towels so we could have avoided doing laundry.
-Lack of light in the bathroom. My wife had issues doing her hair in the bathroom due to lack of light by the mirror
-Paper products. Bargain TP and PT. We went through multiple rolls in our three day stay (and we are conscious of over use). Also no Kleenex was provided at all.
The VERY minor issues above shouldn’t stop you from booking Doug’s place! We’ll stay there again when in DC!
