I stayed for a week while teaching classes in Bethesda. I took the Tenleytown Metro station to the Bethesda Metro station and back each day. The walk to the Tenleytown station is about 10 minutes or so - pleasant and good daily exercise - nice historic houses nearby. I also walked the full 3 miles from Bethesda twice and different routes - beautiful neighborhoods. This is near Chevy Chase Village also with some shops, and there are some shops nearby too on Connecticut as well as Wisconsin. There is a Panera Bread right next to the Tenleytown station subway exit, and a Starbucks two stores down.

The basement apartment is very nice and I would stay there again. All amenities needed were there - kitchen area, WiFi, television, lovely bathroom with large shower (no tub, but I don't use anyway). The apartment is nicely decorated and the bedroom also has a walk-in closet. Also, there was Starbuck's coffee in the frig - very nice!

Liz was helpful and responsive as needed, and even offered to pick me up from the airport - way extra!
