This was a great place to stay, and the host was the perfect level of communicative. Check-in info was crystal clear and it made for a seamless arrival.
Something to note: the listing for this apartment mentions it’s in a vibrant and lively part of town. This is not to be taken lightly. If you like having endless bar, club and food options literally on your doorstep, and understand this means trading a silent sleeping environment for the convenience, then this place will be great for you. There is a white noise machine in the bedroom, and that puppy got some use during our stay!
Though there’s no metro stations directly in Adams Morgan, we had an easy stroll down the hill, making a pit stop for lunch along the way to the Dupont Circle metro station, which leads you directly to all of the museums and monuments. We opted for a $15 Uber ride back after getting more than enough steps in that day. E-bikes and scooters are also readily available if that’s more your speed.
Parking will be extremely difficult if you arrive in town on a Friday or Saturday night, but street parking isn’t impossible on Sunday afternoons or week days - just prepare yourself to do a few laps of the neighborhood and walk a few blocks and all will be well. We parked upon arrival and didn’t need our car at all the entire time we were in town. Worth the hunt, in my opinion.
If you are a light sleeper, have mobility issues, kids, and/or have no interest in night life - this rental probably isn’t the best fit for you.
Two minor critiques that would have made this stay a perfect 5 stars: the metal bed frame is EXTREMELY squeaky (perhaps it just needs a little allen wrench action?) and there were no wash cloths available. I don’t feel these merit knocking off a whole star, but rewarding in half-star increments isn’t an option, so I’m sticking with 5 stars, but with this little note at the end :)
