Rental is as advertised. Spacious, quiet and clean, with a small front yard, is back from Sherman Ave and most of the road noise. A bit of a walk (12-15 min) to nearest metro. Whole Foods in walking distance. Having a parking spot is a plus in DC. The small patio/back yard area is in disrepair and kind of an eyesore, and it would be more appealing if this were fixed up, and perhaps some outdoor seating and a table were provided. Regardless, if you stay inside the beautiful apartment this will not be an issue. Owners were responsive and friendly. There was an issue with the shower from the beginning - this was addressed the same evening i checked in .
