Location, location, location! Excellent location to U Street - literally no more than 50 ft from the glorious U Street hub. A wonderful area, very safe, very welcoming and all the shops you could ever need - good restaurants, grocery shops, cute ice cream parlour, metro, buses etc. More importantly, as a lone traveller, I felt very safe, at all times and although being so close to central U Street, the apartment doesn't actually get any of the noise, which was great. The apartment itself has everything you need for a good stay - bathroom with good shower, bedroom with a very comfy mattress (good sleep was had!), kitchen with full hob cooker and oven if you choose to cook for yourself (which I did), and living room with easy to use cable TV with a bazillion channels for when it's time to relax and probably my favourite amenity - actual air con! (the temps outside were mid 90s and high humidity but the apartment has full self controlled air con in all rooms - a blessing! I really enjoyed my stay at Dave's place, and you can't beat this flat's location!
