First let me note that I have a bit of a warped view on this rental as we had a hellacious day driving to DC. Having said that, I would definitely book here again. The metro stations were farther away than I expected. A young whippersnapper might not find it a problem, but in the heat of the day, it was about a fifteen minute walk. While I had looked at a map to determine the best station for us, it looked like a straight shot, but we had to use mobile gps to get us to the metro. I also googled restaurants in the area, and didn't find much. Don't get me wrong...there are some around, but not as many choices as I expected. The apartment itself was great and worked well for us. Check in was no contact, and we had no problem with that, nor any problems in which we needed to contact our host, Shawn. But for a weekend when a knee buckled on me and I managed a broken toe (NO! NO bar fights or any other questionable behavior!), it was a comfortable place to ice my toe and rest my knee at night. Thank you, Shawn.
