We had an excellent stay in this lovely apartment. The value is outstanding and the location is perfect for walking to the Zoo, the metro, as well as to Adams Morgan neighborhood. The bed was comfortable, but the pull-out sleeper sofa is extra firm. We took off one star for the sleeper sofa, particularly the comforter not having it's own duvet cover, though clean sheets were provided, and as others mentioned, there are doors and windows without blinds. Since it is a basement apartment, privacy wasn't a huge issue, but I definitely would have felt more secure with blinds over the bedroom windows. Overall, we had an awesome week in DC. Lara & Alex are AMAZING hosts, and you should not hesitate to book with them.
