Loved the neighborhood! I felt very safe, even at night (woman traveling alone)! The apartment was clean, well maintained, and the amenities (coffee, shampoo, soap, etc) was much appreciated! I would stay here again!
Clean and cozy place with very communicative host in a convenient location.

Very nice garden apartment in DC with a backyard space, updated bathroom and kitchenette areas, and separate bedroom space. It was chilly when we were in town, but the 2 radiator heaters worked well to make the whole space comfortable. The bedroom is a bit tight for 2 people, but we made it work. Very convenient to both the Union Station Red Line stop and the Eastern Market blue/orange/silver line. Easy to walk to 7th St shops or 8th St stops. Just what we were looking for in DC.

Fantastic location, very comfortable, furniture and wall art provide a cozy atmosphere, close to metro and bus stop. The kitchenette comes with dishes and flatware—everything you need to make a quick meal. In addition to the washer/drier, they include detergent pods, which is so thoughtful, especially for a quick stay. The property managers provided clear instructions for check-in/check-out, and were very responsive to emailed questions. The only improvement would be an automatically-timed light for the exterior stair, to improve visibility.
This rental met my needs to a T - convenient, easy walk to key locations, restaurants nearby. The only challenge was I'm short, and this place was designed for a tall person. First challenge was location of key box when I arrived. Inside, I could not reach across the kitchen counter to access dishes, etc. on the shelves. Maybe provide a stool so could access dishes and be able to use microwave?
