My friends and I really enjoyed our stay at this apartment! We were there for a whole week, so it really came to feel like our home in DC. It's in a very cute little block of traditional DC townhouses, which was fun (we are from the Pacific Northwest, so that was a treat for us). The apartment is very much like the photos. Spacious enough for 4 adults. Clean and well-stocked with cooking supplies. The location was really convenient for us--just a couple blocks to the nearest Metro. We also found it very easy to get a Lyft or Uber in the neighborhood any time we needed one. We were in town for the Women's March (Jan 2017), and on that morning the Metro was clogged with people heading downtown and we ended up walking all the way from the Apartment to the National Mall (and back again at the end of the day). We were surprised at what an easy walk it was--I wouldn't recommend walking the distance for everyone, but if you like walking and have the time, it's doable.
In addition to being close to the Metro (Mt. Vernon is closest, but Shaw isn't too far either), the apartment is also very close to a Giant grocery store and several restaurants. I highly recommend the 3-block walk to Beau Thai--we liked it so much we went twice! There's also a yummy gelato spot just down the street, Dolci Gelati. Definitely worth a stop.
Inside the apartment, we found it was much as the photos had shown. The space was clean and bright. The kitchen is very small, but certainly serviceable for vacation cooking. It was stocked with all the cooking and serving items we needed. There are two bedrooms. The smaller bedroom does not have a window, so it got quite stuffy at night, but there are fans you can use to help with that. We had some noisy upstairs neighbors on the two weekend nights, but I think that's more a reflection on that particular group of travelers than on the space itself. It was otherwise very quiet.
We were delighted to find a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle on the shelf with images of old-fashioned fishing lures. It totally cracked us up, so we went ahead and put it together one night while sipping our DC Brau beer and decompressing from the day's sight-seeing. Highly recommend this activity.
We did have a couple issues come up during our stay (the wifi went out and we couldn't figure out how to get the oven to turn on when we wanted to bake some pizzas), and we were not able to get in touch with the host by phone which was a little disappointing. However, we had a very positive stay overall and I would highly recommend this spot in DC.
