Had a great time with our adult children here. It was comfortable for 5 people and great location. We found two grocery stores and multiple restaurants within walking distance. Short walk to union station where a bus that goes around the mall/ monuments is available for only $1 a trip. Shared outside space was nice to sit in at night and enjoy each others company.
Only complaint, as stated in other reviews the upstairs neighbors can be noisy, we had multiple groups upstairs and some were very quiet and some partied all night. Small window in bathroom is into 2nd bedroom, which makes it difficult for use in the night as bathroom light shines into bedroom. Night light might be good to bring so you don't have to use overhead light. In all I would recommend this airbnb, communication was good before and during the trip they answered any questions and made the whole process easy. If going to washington DC and want to be near the mall this is the place.
