I stayed in Carl's and Larisa's apartment for 15 nights, and had a wonderful time. Larisa gave me clear and accurate access instructions, and so my check in went smoothly. I found in the apartment everything I needed, including lots of room for clothes, towels and a fully equipped kitchen. I also used the kitchen table as a desk, which was very convenient for me. There are two air conditioners in the apartment, one in the living room and one in the kitchen. The neighborhood is very nice, and there are many restaurants and bars near by. Transportation was very easy for me - Dupont Circle station is a few minute walk away, and U street station is 10-15 minutes away. In conclusion, as written above, I had a great time in the apartment.
