Natasha was a nice host and her apartment was clean, comfortable and convenient. As others have written, the location is not quite so convenient if you have to rely a lot on public transit, but Natasha goes out of her way to shuttle you to the Metro station whenever she can. Also, if you have to go to NIH like I did, it's just a 10min Metro ride away on the same line ... If you come with some time to enjoy the park, it's definitely great! And yes, one day when I walked out the door, I was greeted by three deer on the front lawn :)
