Highly recommend!
It was amazing. Unfortunately I had a last minute hotel reservation cancelled on me and Placemakr was very accommodating and went above and beyond taking numerous calls from me and assisting me to find the garage too. The front desk associate greeted me and gave me late night dinner recommendations and just made the stay even better. When I return to the area I will use them again for sure. Apartment was clean and well stocked and comfortable. Only advice would be a little more light in the living room, it was dark and difficult to work at night.

Disliked: Amenities
The reason why I chose this property was the fact that they offered the two bedroom apartment so that each person could have their own bathroom. When we checked in, the person at the front desk, bragged about the upstairs rooftop deck and the fireplaces. We decided to check them out that evening, however, only one was working We also noticed the common areas had worn carpet and were dirty, and the fire alarms were Covered with dust. The apartment itself was very basic, and the light in the one bedroom was almost nonexistent. We had to argue with the cooling system as a few times in order to get the temperature to go down. On the second day, received a text message asking if we needed anything for our stay at that time, we requested additional towels, which never came even after several follow up text messages. We did find the apartment to be very quiet, which was nice. We found that it was very walkable to the Metro However, I would choose not to stay here again I am hoping that they will be making improvements
