These guys really know how to be hosts. The apartment is just as shown, very stylish, well designed and filled with everything you might need: cool drinks, snacks, and loads of maps and brochures to plan your stay. This is a very quiet neighbourhood and not too far to walk to the metro (although it isn't around the corner) if you are a real walker you can even walk into the Mall. There are some wonderful cafes, we loved Ridici's you can get good coffee, great wine, pastries or dinner to take away or eat in. We loved Washington and the great museums there which are mostly free!! You can't go wrong staying with John and Manuel.
