The “penthouse” apartment was a good match for our needs as a couple with a small dog visiting DC for 5 days. The location so close to the US Capitol, Supreme Court, Library of Congress, etc. but still in a fairly quiet and attractive residential area was ideal. Also the fact that the South Capitol Metro station was so close was a big plus. It was nice having the little balcony with table, chairs, and umbrella attached to the apartment, where you could sit and enjoy a glass of wine or beer in the evening. The Team was very helpful and responded extremely promptly to any questions or requests we had.

Things to consider:
a) Since we did not have a lot of luggage, the steps to the top of the building were manageable, though we were grateful that we only had to carry our one heavy suitcase up and down the staircase once.
b) As for the cooking equipment in the kitchen, it was sparse. It appeared that like the two of us, most guests do little cooking or eating in the apartment. We did though pick up food at Whole Foods, which is only an 8- or 9-minute walk from the apartment.
c) The linoleum covering on the stairs within the apartment as well as the flooring of the balcony seem not to have been renovated for quite a while. That stands in stark contrast however to the rest of the clean, modern apartment. The kitchen furnishings as well as the bathroom fixtures are up-to date and in excellent working condition. The beds and linens are fresh and clean. And the living area is comfortable and spacious for 2 people.
I certainly would consider booking the apartment again if we ever pass through Capitol Hill in the future, especially since the Team members did their very best to accommodate our requests and make our stay pleasant.
