Uri's place is located in a bustling area right off of U Street. It is a short 60 meter walk to the metro station and has ample restaurants nearby. As far as location this unit is a perfect option for a business or short-vacation traveler. The area has a lot of restaurants and nightlife so don't expect quiet weekend nights but if you love a city-styled environment, this is a perfect option.
The apartment was clean and well laid out. It is a perfect size for a single and maybe a romantic couple. Any more people than that and space could become an issue. Street parking is not ample so if you are traveling with a car, this is something that should be considered. If you are not traveling with a car, the Shaw metro station is a 1-2 minute walk away.
Although I didn't get the pleasure of meeting Uri, he was very communicative and helpful by text and email from the moment I booked the apartment through the conclusion of my 30-day stay. Check-in was simple and thorough.
I enjoyed my stay and recommend highly recommend this place and Uri as a host.
