I spent one month at Rae’s place and had a great experience in sharing the flat with her. The location of the apartment in a quiet and secure neighborhood is perfect. There is a good supermarket just around the corner and Adams Morgan with the vibrant 18th street is only five minutes away. Downtown can be conveniently reached by bus. The bus stop is only a few meters away and you will not miss the unserviceable metro. The apartment is located at the ground floor of an upscale building. The room itself is comfortable and cozy. It is located on one end of the apartment and gives you a lot of privacy. The room has a lot of light and stays cool even on hot summer days. The living room and kitchen are beautiful and clean, and I felt perfectly welcome in them. Rae is a warm and welcoming person: very friendly, cultivated, communicative, helpful. I enjoyed talking to her in the evenings and learnt a lot about Washington. It truly felt like home and meeting Rae made my trip a memorable visit. I stayed at different locations in Washington, but this was by far the best experience I had.
