Trish's apartment is a great find. It's on a safe, quiet, residential block very close to the shops and many restaurants on Connecticut Ave. near the Woodley Park Metro stop. It's also very close to the Marriott Wardman Park, so it's convenient if you're traveling to a conference and would prefer not to stay in the hotel, or if you would simply like to have more space than a hotel room (and a kitchen and garden too!) as we did. We stayed here with our 3 year old, and the apartment was very comfortable for a couple with a child. (The neighborhood is great for traveling with kids, too: lots of casual restaurants and the zoo is right around the corner.) I highly recommend this place. We would love to stay here again the next time we visit DC!
