Joel is a very gracious host. He provides quick responses, good communication, and is happy to be a text away if further info or advice is needed. This apartment is a GREAT location...easy walking to the National Mall, White House, Capital, Smithsonian Museums, Washington Conference Center, several eateries, and grocery stores. The apartment is cozy, gets great natural light during the and was nicely suited for our party of 3 (two adults and a 12 year old).
