The apartment was great - just as described, but with some thoughtful extra touches such as a flashlight in the bedroom, loads of clean towels, a super stocked kitchen including Tupperware, coffee, sugar, creamer, and assortment of teas, shampoo, conditioner, and even a new toothbrush and toothpaste! Also there were some guidebooks and even a guidebook for kids.
The location was superb...a short (5 minutes or less) walk to the metro, coffeehouses, Target (and small mall), and Giant Food Store. We received a parking pass for roadside parking, but didn't need to use our car at all during our 6 day stay as the metro was so close.
The hosts allowed us to have the level of contact with them that we desired and were quick to respond to questions and attentive to our needs. We would definitely stay here again. I would feel comfortable recommending this property and its hosts to anyone.
