Like virtually everyone else who stayed in Rae's apartment, I can talk about it only in superlatives. I was at a two-day conference near Dupont Circle, which was a 15 minute stroll. Shops, restaurants, transit are all within nearby. If you don't mind doing laps and want to do some work on steps, the park nearby (2 minutes) is a great place and for longer runs the river trails are only a few minutes further away. Superb location, great atmosphere, cozy room, amazing value and Rae is a most welcoming and helpful host. I greatly enjoyed our conversations that could have gone on much longer. Highly recommended.
