Beko is a wonderful host. We had a misunderstanding about a detail of the room's description, and Beko was extremely helpful to resolve the issue.
The house is one of the nicest in the neighborhood and very quiet at night. It is very up-to-date and has a lot of electronic gadgets and little electronic helpers, including a very sophisticated alarm system and door locks with codes, so you won't need to keep a key on you.
There are grocery stores within 10 minutes walking distance and a metro station close buy, which will get you to the city center. Unfortunately it took me about 40 minutes to get to the city center by metro when I tried it. However, I was told that this might be due to repairs on the tracks, so the ride could be faster in the future.
Anacostia is an up and coming area in Washington, but not all parts have undergone change yet, so there are problematic spots in the neighborhood. Overall though I would recommend Beko's place if you are looking for a well maintained place that's reasonably priced and close to a metro line.
