Barry communicated very clearly and had many menus of local restaurants available as well as passes to get started on the Metro. The location is a 20 minute walk to Nationals Stadium; 30 minutes to Capitol; less than ten minutes of safe walking to restaurants and the Eastern Market Metro station. Great location. We were not expecting the apartment to have such a basement feel- dark, windows painted shut so no fresh air, and early risers foot thumps upstairs. We also wished the bed was more comfortable- it needed a box spring and was too soft for us.
