A wonderful place to stay w/ hosts who are very conscientious about replying to emails and who have clearly worked hard to make the apt as comfortable as possible. The neighborhood is lovely, a few blocks from a # of fun places to eat and 10 minutes or so walk to the Columbia Heights Metro station. The only quibble: the hosts are very careful to be as quiet as possible--they live in the floors above the apt--but their morning routine means they are walking right above the apt's bedrooms. If you're a light sleeper, they will probably wake you up for a bit c. 7:00 a.m. on weekdays, but the noise is very far from being unbearable (and earplugs helped a great deal). We would certainly stay there again.
