The basement has a great location and is quite functional. It is to a walkable distance to Chinatown and touristic places (2 km) and 2 minutes walking to a metro station (that connect tree and yellow line). Also close to a Gigant supermarket and an awesome playground just in front of Gigant. We loved the location and how is connected to the rest of Washington DC. The fact that have washing machine, a dryer and a well equipped kitchen was a plus. Thanks Adam
