Eli is the best host I ever had. He gave us a mass of information about DC, places to visit, sightseeing, public transportation or places to eat near the apartment. Also he was very helpful at our problem with hurricane "Florence 2018". We had to come earlier and must cancel one other destination (Norfolk) because it was mandatory to evacuate. He found a nice solution for our problem. The apartment is just 1 min from a bus stop of the line G8, ~12 min from the metro station "Rhode Island Ave" and ~20 min from "Shaw-Howard University". If you are visiting DC you also have to visit the "Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center". Hope you will have a nice time in DC, we had! :)
