First off, this is a beautiful apartment!! 10/10 would recommend for the comfort alone. This location is close to the metro and bus stops, is well stocked with necessities for cooking and comfort, and is an easy walk, bus, or metro ride to the national mall and other sites. There are loads of restaurants and shops just a step out the door, which made meals easy when we were close to the apartment. As mentioned in previous reviews, the upstairs neighbor can be a little loud sometimes, but it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary for having an upstairs neighbor. The sounds of the city can be a small issue and may cause light sleepers some trouble but it didn’t bother us at all. Plan to bring ear plugs if you sleep lightly. The only problem was that the washer was very moldy and, while it was a wonderful amenity to have, it needs to be given a deep clean (especially between the door seal).
