Great area, very near the metro station in terms of convenience but worlds away in terms of feeling like you are in a private neighborhood. The host was very friendly and communicative. The bedroom was spare and well set up with good lighting. The bathroom has a nice feature in which the shower rod extends out so that you have more room for your shower.
As is true with many homes in the Washington area, the home is on a hill and there are multiple flights of stairs involved in getting to the living room and then your room. If you like a good workout, the hill leading up to the home is just the right incline. If you were hoping to relax without exertion, you're going to want to have transportation such as a private car or Uber.
You can get all around DC between the train, bus, and Uber, so have no fear if you are showing up without your own vehicle.
