We had a wonderful time staying at Maricel’s place over Christmas. Maricel was fabulous with communication. The unit is very spacious for a 1-BR in DC. Maricel’s kitchen was well-stocked with appliances, and nice to use because it’s updated. The sound system that plays music in every room was a delightful perk. The laundry machine is actually in-unit, another welcome surprise. The location is fabulous, within a block of the popular strip on 14th Street and Whole Foods, and a 10 minute walk from Dupont station. Expert tips for your stay: 1. The clothes dryer is a condensation dryer so budget a little extra time. 2. The shower water may be cold while you run the dishwasher. 3. Hold down the toilet handle when you flush to make sure the process is complete. 4. Bring cash because there is Nespresso coffee (yum) and a $1/coffee honor system.
