It may seem odd to rate a neighborhood as lively, happening, quiet and residential all at the same time, but this property is perfectly situated only a few feet from DuPont circle itself, next door to a cool tea shop, and less than a minute to a Starbucks, but it is in the basement of a beautiful old DC style home, at the beginning of a tree-lined quintessentially DC residential street. The 2 bedroom apartment was spacious and comfortable, and surprisingly quiet. The kitchen is small but more than adequate. Everything that DuPont circle has to offer is pretty much right outside your door. Communication was easy and seamless. We would definitely stay here again.
