Michael's apartment is exactly as described. It is a lovely place in a lovely neighborhood. It's quiet and yet close to restaurants and other activities.
For us, it was the perfect location - only a couple of blocks from the Eastern Market where we attended a wedding. It was also walkable to the national mall and monuments. And there were plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance. We even took a bus trip (for only 1$) to Georgetown for the day.
Michael was also incredibly quick to respond to our questions and very helpful. He also has a binder in the apartment with a list of restaurants and a few tips about the apartment. He was an ideal host.
I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and would stay there again should we visit that area of DC.
