We stayed at Adam & Jen cosy little apartment for 5 nights in June and we were lucky enough to bump into Jen on our arrival. Jen was very friendly, gave us advice on how to navigate the city and kindly provided some metro cards which we ended up topping up and using everyday. The air con is great, kept us cool as it was super warm. Fresh towels were available when we wanted them and Jen and Adam provided lots of amenities like tea, coffee, milk, water & a powerful hair dryer to get us started.
If you like to walk, then the Eastern Market Metro is only a 10-15min walk away and it’s a lovely walk through residential streets. The Metro is very reliable and quick so you’re never really more than a quick metro ride away from wherever you want to be.
You’re in the Capitol Hill area and Eastern market its self has lots of lively restaurants, bars and gelato! We ate here on numerous occasions, the Bullfrog Bagels and French restaurant were highlights and its lovely to be able to safety walk back in the evening during summertime. We even ran from Adam and Jen’s through Capitol Hill to the Washington Monument, it’s a lovely run and again, so much to see and take in.
We’d definitely stay again!
