This was a cozy place to stay on a rainy weekend, and I'm glad we found it. AnneMarie & Eric were extremely communicative prior to our arrival and provided all sorts of helpful information with precise details and photos. Very impressive! The apartment is ground-level and is accessed from the back of the house, which faces an alley-like street. It's extremely quiet, yet it's only a couple of blocks from the Tenleytown Metro station and the businesses and restaurants in that immediate area (including Whole Foods Market and Target). The neighborhood is very safe, so I would say that the location was the most appealing thing about this rental. I also loved the covered sitting area/patio right outside the door, but due to the inclement weather we unfortunately didn't get to use it.
