Great location a block from Potomac ( orange/blue lines) metro. Wonderful hostess and lovely clean apartment. Pictures are pretty representative, but nicer in person. Comfortable, private and quiet home away from home. Nicely equipped kitchen. Lots of storage and closet space in bedrooms and hall closets.Small, but adequate well thought out bathrooms ( DC homes of this era are not known for large bathrooms). Glad there were too. Ladies especially will appreciate the good lighting. Comfortable beds and comfy bath towels and bed linens. Crystal and family could not have been nicer. She's a fountain of knowledge about the area and a real DC booster. Be sure to ask her about the history of her house and the apartment.
Starter packages of goodies in the kitchen if you arrive after the good local supermarket one block away is closed. Half & Half and bottled water in the refrigerator. Many restaurants and dare I mention Starbuck's within a few blocks walking distance. Try the Vietnamese one on Pennsylvania Ave or Acqua al 2 in Eastern Market area. VAriety of good ethnic cuisines in Barracks Row, also easy walking. 15- 20 minute pleasant walk to Capitol or 5 min. on metro. I needed a place that was close to my daughter and infant grandson that was within walking distance for couple weeks. This was perfect. My grandson loved splashing around in the bathtub.Much better than staying in hotel. WAlking around the (well -lit at night) neighborhood I got to know the neighbors. Very friendly. Lots of pride and care. If you want a taste of city living you won't be disappointed!
