What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Navy Yard Washington

i like that there are a lot of people my age so i fit into the area well. there are a lot of restaurants, both fast food and nicer, which is nice because i love food .

I seldom accompany my family when I go to work. I usually go to Starbucks nearby with my family on Saturdays and Sundays. I feel that Starbucks is quiet and I can talk with my family members about their innermost feelings

I love the diversity and being able to walk to restaurants. I like being close to metro. My favorite restaurant is Chloe.
