The apartment worked out very well for us. It is in a location that has many services just steps away. Services like a library, pharmacy, one-screen theater, Target and other local grocers, and the metro station. My plans changed a bit after we arrived, and I wound up spending more time in the apartment than expected. It was very clean, quiet and offered a view of the street. I especially appreciated the ice maker in the refrigerator. My husband enjoyed spending a bit of time lounging in the library across the street.
