Apartment

Overall it was good. Seems to be a fairly new rental, and I do have a couple recommendations for the host. Check in and accessibility were great, and exactly as described. The place was true to the photos and comfortable. Cleanliness was moderate...there were several bunches of hair stuck on the shower wall, and the outside of the white kitchen cabinets showed some food stains and grunge, but everything else was fine. The listing notes a sleeper sofa, but this was not the case. The couch was not a pull out, and our 5th guest ended up buying an air mattress for the floor. The kitchen was somewhat stocked, but very sparsely. Only 4 dinner plates, and the drinking glasses consisted of only wine glasses. 3 with stems, and 3 without. We were a party of 5, but made due. 4 small coffee cups were also available. There was a large assortment of cookware for the stove, and a toaster oven, but no pot holders to be found. Used a dish towel to take the hot tray out of the toaster oven. Adding pot holders and aluminum foil to the kitchen would be ideal. The adjustable AC unit worked great and kept the place very cool. Also seems to be well insulated, as we didn't get too much street or neighbor noise. The neighborhood itself seems a little sketch, with a fair amount of boarded up / empty buildings, but we didn't have any issues or see people hanging around the street. We had a rental car and were able to park on street every day without issue. Only a few miles from all the memorials we were there to see... 15 to 20 min drive with traffic to the parking garage on 14th St / Constituton Ave, so the location was ideal. There is also a metro bus stop at the end of the street. All in all, I would stay again, but probably with 4 people, max. 5 was a bit of a stretch but still doable. Perfect for a couple.
