Aaron's place can't be beat! It was exactly as described - built in 1912 and recently renovated to modern standards. Talk about charm! Just about everything you could need is provided. Step out the door and the Capitol is two blocks away. The nearest metro stop is about a 5 - 7 minute walk away. With the Smartrip cards that Aaron so generously provided, getting around was easy. The train didn't really bother us - seems like they don't blow the horn all the time. The only slightly negative comment is if someone is in the upstairs unit it can be a little noisy at times. We would for sure stay here again!
