Marcy was a great host, providing us with help and tips when needed, but respecting our privacy also.
We spent some wonderful days in the beautiful apartment, which is perfectly located to explore DC - we found that this is one of the most beautiful streets, reminding us of Notting Hill!
From there, you can either stroll towards the more chic Dupont Circle area, or the young and partying U street area.
It is all up to you! (a tip is also: "Trader Joe's" market on 14th street some blocks away to buy good food and use the nice cooking amenities in the apartment).
All in all: really recommendable!
