We had a lovely two-night stay at this apartment (our first Arbnb experience). Our only contact with the owner was via e-mail and text, but her responses were always timely, cheerful and helpful. The apartment was (or seemed to be) brand-new, with everything immaculate. The studio was spacious and bed very comfortable. Big windows made the studio very light and airy. We didn't use the kitchen facilities at all, but they seemed very adequate. Bathroom was very clean. The location was lovely, Capitol Hill in this area is all townhouses, and extremely convenient to The Mall and all the museums. The Library of Congress and Capitol were just two blocks away. Although it was on Independence Avenue, a busy street just a block or two west of the apartment, a jog in the street and an odd case of it turning one way in both directions at one point cut the traffic on this block to almost nothing. No problem at all with street noise or anything like that. It also seemed like a very safe neighborhood, we walked at night with no qualms. Lots of small cafes and restaurants on Pennsylvania Avenue just a block to two away. A great place to stay for a couple of days, like we did, but also for a couple of weeks or more, given its convenient location. My wife and I would stay again in a heartbeat.
