The location was amazing for both public transportation or taking an Uber which was around $10 to the National Mall. The close proximity to the Metro was amazing as 3 lines run through the closest stop which was only a few minutes away and made traveling around so much easier and efficient. The ride to the National Mall was fairly short by Metro and very inexpensive even during peak travel time. I wish there had been a pan and oven mitt as we couldn't really use the oven without them. The cookware and utensils were a bit dirty when we arrived but there was dish soap so we were able to wash them before use. The filtered water and complimentary drinks and ice packs were a huge help though! I would bring reusable bags if you plan to do any food shopping as DC has a policy of charging for plastic bags. I do wish there had been a TV however but there was WiFi so we just watched on our laptop/phones. Besides the cookware issue, the apartment was lovely and worked great for our vacation. ​Nicholas and Alina were wonderful hosts and were quick to respond to any questions we had. I would still absolutely stay again next time I'm in the area!
