The location across from the Eastern Market (metro line & outdoor market) is fabulous. 8th Street restaurants and Trader Joes make this a very convenient place to stay.
You can prepare simple meals in the kitchen (spices & other basic staples in the cabinet available), and the apartment has a table with four chairs, a rare feature in these rentals! There are lots of nice towels in the bathroom & there are soaps and other products if you forgot something. The bed is comfortable with a luxurious down duvet. I did not use the washer/dryer this time, but that is a wonderful convenience.
The hosts and their children & dog are extremely friendly & easy to check with.
