Convenient, modern apartment for family vacation
We met our host, Angela, at a restaurant next to the apartment for check-in. Communication was excellent -she asked us to text her when we were leaving the airport and was waiting when we arrived.
Angela was such a sweetheart. She showed us around the apartment and provided some suggestions for dining and activities.
The apartment was clean and modern and located in the upscale Nine Elms district right next to the US Embassy. We felt completely safe in this location and wouldn't hesitate to stay in the same apartment if we visited again.
The Nine Elms subway "tube" station is only a couple minutes walk away and is the cleanest station I've ever seen. In addition, there are 2 grocery stores within a few minutes walk where you can get anything you need. I highly preferred staying in this area and taking short subway rides into the city to see sites and attractions.
Be sure to check that there are washcloths and body wash at check-in since we did have an issue with housekeeping forgetting to provide them. No big deal as we purchased at the grocery store and Angela was very apologetic. And be aware if you use the washer/dryer that it does not operate like units in the US. There is no way to end the cycle early to get your clothes out and no timed dry setting. Not even unplugging the unit will open the door. Perhaps an instruction manual or directions could be provided.
Highly recommended. Book and you won't be disappointed.
