Great place at a great value. It's close to the the eastern market metro stop, where there are restaurants and bars, the eastern market, and lots to do. The place itself is clean and has everything you need. Penny is very helpful and gave us some useful tips on the area. I was not sure what to think because of the other persons post about the camera, but once we got there I saw that it's something that Penny gave us full control over while we were there. We unplugged it while we were in the apartment and plugged it back in when we were out. It's pointed at the door and there is a sign under it that identifies it as a security camera. Overall this was an perfect place for us and we would definitely stay here again.
