Our trip to Joel's apartment was excellent! The location was perfect - so close to a lot of great restaurants, coffee shops, the grocery and some shops. Also a pretty close walk to a couple metro stations to easily get around town and to the airport. The apartment was just the right size and had everything we needed. Flowers and fresh fruit were a sweet touch. The patio area looked great as well, though we were out exploring so much that we didn't take advantage.
The neighborhood felt really safe, too.
Joel was really responsive and helpful throughout our stay and was such a great host. With availability of the apartment, we would definitely stay again if we come back to DC.
