The apartment was exactly as described. Meseret left a box of pastries on the counter to welcome us, she owns a little bakery on H street that is delicious. The bed was very comfortable and the internet worked great. The kitchen was fully stocked and the apartment felt very homey. The cell phone service was spotty but that was to be expected staying in a basement apartment. The location was excellent, a couple blocks to the redline metro which took us right to the National Mall. H street was a few blocks away with many choices of restaurants, some even open late which was a plus when arriving to DC after 10 pm. The neighborhood was cute and I felt very comfortable walking around, even late at night. I would highly recommend staying here.
