E. REVIEW
Marty – “We enjoyed our stay at the Palisades Sanctuary. The apartment was clean and comfortable. We appreciated the availability of free parking for our rental car that did not require a DC permit. Our host, Matthias, was very accessible by email or cell phone to answer any questions we had. We also appreciated the help that Charlotte provided in helping us find a place that met our needs.” May, 2012, stayed at Palisades Sanctuary
