The apartment is very clean and has everything you would need for a few nights stay. It was so nice to be greeted with a personal note and a bottle of wine. Much appreciated. The check-in/out process is very flexible and low-key, which was great since we arrived late on a Sunday night and left for the airport quite early on Wednesday morning. The Stronghold neighborhood is a bit far out from the major sightseeing attractions, but it was so cool to stay in an authentic D.C. neighborhood. We figured out the bus system on our last day in town, but you can definitely easily use the buses to get to Union Station and then take it from there. All and all, I would definitely recommend the apartment for a 2 people. Thanks Melanie and Jeff!
