Photo makes living room look bigger than it is.
It's a nuisance having the kitchen downstairs--takes many trips to take down whatever dirty plates and glasses and cups may have been taken upstairs. And the banisters on the stairway are not quite adequate for safety (especially in descending).
There were several light bulbs burned out or missing. Housekeeping (especially for so exorbitant a charge) should do a better job.
There was in the master (upstairs) bedroom very disruptive noises from the apartment above--most nights until at least 2 am it sounded as if people (children?) were running back and forth in the room right above. Incessant pounding made sleep very difficult.
There is plenty of equpment for meal preparation (though we made only simple breakfasts--toast and coffee). But there is no real place for more than two people to eat anything (and not much room for even two people)--i. e., there is no dining table).
Ehab is a receptive host.
The location is great for walking to The National Mall, Holocaust Museum, National Portrait Gallery, Chinatown, etc. Also for taking Metro from DCA.
