We would happily return to this comfortable and well-decorated apartment that was spotlessly clean! I especially enjoyed that the sofa seats 2+ people easily. (Many places that sleep 2 people have not got comfortable seating for 2). Also, the king bed was truly comfortable - firm with just a little give. We didn’t cook so I can’t comment on the pots&pans, but there are dishes, silverware, corkscrew, microwave, Keurig coffee maker with a selection of K-pods, welcome snacks and bottled water in the fridge. The refrigerator has a separate freezer compartment, very useful.
Others have mentioned the steep steps to enter (it’s a basement apartment) but there is a ledge to hang onto as you descend, so it wasn’t a problem. There is a curtain that apparently covers the stairs to upstairs, and that was fine for us - we never even looked behind it, did not feel a need to.
We parked our car easily on the street in front of the apartment and appreciated that free parking was included.
Whole Foods on H Street & 6th was a 9 minute walk, and Trader Joe’s looked to be about the same distance in a different direction. There’s a bodega close by but we didn’t go there.
I have to say that H Street was a disappointment - many boarded up shops or restaurants although others are open. We ate at Sospeso on H Street and the food was good, but the service was awful - they served my companions without noticing I had no food, forgot my order. (Took forever to flag down a waiter, and when my food came, it was wrong). We rode the free H Street streetcar to/from Union Station - clean, comfortable, easy. It doesn’t stop on every block so be aware of the stops.
We felt safe walking around the neighborhood, including at night. Like all big cities, though, you want to keep your eyes open. We enjoyed looking at the homes/architecture in the neighborhood, many having been fixed up, others not yet.
Thank you for a very nice stay!
