Great location, great owner!

My husband and I brought our two daughters (11 and 14) to DC and chose this apartment to stay in. Frankly, we couldn't be happier. The proximity to Eastern Market, the Metro and "restaurant row" on 7th street were great. The apartment was very clean, and although it was small, the kitchen was stocked enough for the small meals we made there once or twice. Don't worry about the size of the kitchen -- use it as an excuse to go out and try the local eateries, which are great! We tried Ted's Bulletin (a must!), Tortilla Cafe (Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives location), Matchbox (great atmosphere, great wood-fired pizzas), and Tunnecliffs (not a stand-out like the others, but a good bet). We also tried various goodies from Eastern Market -- the homemade mozzarella-basil ravioli from the pasta people was amazing and the homemade pancakes from another stall were wonderful! By all means, though, the highlight of the area for me was the Sweet Lobby -- winner of Cupcake Wars on Food Network and DEFINITELY worth a try!
What made this experience even better was the great service that the owners offered us from the moment we booked through our time in their apartment. Each one of our emails was answered promptly and contained great information given with a positive attitude. We really appreciated that!
Bottom line: this place is a good choice!
