8/10
Great building and unit in a terrific location. But please be aware that (a) it's a rental apartment, not a condo owner by the host [and the building concierge let me know off the bat that they've had issues with the host company], and (b) parking is an extra charge that must be arranged in advance. I wasn't asked at booking whether I wanted it, so it was a last minute scramble to arrange it the day of check-in.
Also, know that your host is a corporate entity. For me, the communications weren't as good as I've experienced with previous VRBO units rented directly from owners.
Pros: Clean, bright, spacious apartment in a luxury building. Great location - walked to Harris Teeter, the local beer/wine store, restaurants, the Bethesda metrorail station, and a lovely walking trail adjacent to NIH.
Cons: Sterile, nice balcony but unusable without any furniture on it, poorly equipped kitchen (for ex. no salt/ pepper, oil, foil, kitchen towel, only one dishwasher pod, cheap coffee maker, etc.), no nice luxury touches that I've had at other VRBOs (local coffee, nice soaps, luxury towels, etc.) and there's a police station right up the street so you'll hear sirens at times.
Overall, I'd rate the experience a 7/10.
