Although we didn't meet Crystal, Lillybeth was a great host . There was a minor problem with the shower that she told us about when we arrived and she had it repaired before we returned for the evening. She gave a number of restaurant suggestions and gave us good instructions for getting to the Metro The are connections to the A,B,C,D lines and the 2 and 3 lines at two stops that are only minute-long walks from the apartment, so the the location is great
