Location is excellent for walking to major sites and easy access to Metro, super-convenient little grocery just across the street. As an American I forgot that air conditioners are not the norm, and the June heat wave made it quite uncomfortable in this top floor apartment even with the fan. Other times of year it should be pleasant. Problem with smell in shower, host was responsive and tried to fix it but odor not eliminated fully. Host also provided extra power strips upon request and generally helpful with check in and other information and instructions.
