We just got back from our DC trip and were there for 2 1/2 days. We knew when renting this little place that we would be close to the metro line which was a huge plus for us esp with a 9 yr old, but it ended up being close enough to walk to the mall and it was gorgeous weather so that's what we did most of the time! They also have a parking pass to park on the street which was a huge positive as well. The apt itself is cute and comfy and just big enough for family of 3 although if the third person is bigger that say 53ins I would bring a blow up bed (our son fit perfect on the futon... in his words "this is the most comfy hotel ever"! The place had everything you could need, they even had coffee, creamer, and some other misc items in the kitchen and some toiletries that you may have forgotten. It is within walking distance to a few local coffee shops (YUM), restaurants and CVS which is handy for those that may be interested! This was not an issue for us in the least bit but Carrie teaches music during the day so you could hear that but again we had no issue as we were either gone during the day or getting back as she was finishing up, she was always done well before we ate dinner (they do provide earplugs). We met both David and Carrie in passing and they are both very nice, we would def stay here again if we ever made our way up there again.
