Getting to live with Yill and the other housemates (including an adorable 5yo) over the past few months has been an absolute dream. I truly can’t imagine my DC experience without them, and cannot recommend enough for others to stay here.
Yill has a wealth of knowledge not only about the area, but also about life. I’ve found myself in many a casual conversation from her where I benefit from her sage outlook on life, and also her kind and badass energy.
My space is absolutely incredible - so much natural light, TONS of closet/storage space, and a lovely shared bathroom. The house is amazing, and has so many cozy nooks and crannies that make you want to curl up and read in all day (and you can - there are lots of bookshelves!!). The kitchen has everything you could need, and I have become a better cook while living here, mostly due to great advice from roommates.
I may be biased now, but Adams Morgan has got to be the best neighborhood in DC - for so many reasons. The house is right next to a beautiful park, as well as being close to an area with tennis courts/ turf field. There are lots of cafes (my personal favorite is Jolt&Bolt) and places to grab food, and often you’ll hear live music at night on the weekends. (You can’t hear most of this noise from the house though, which is great for light sleepers like myself).
Overall, I feel so lucky to have spent time in this wonderful space with Yill and her family, and if you are thinking of staying here, this is your sign to do so!!!
