Fran's place was great to stay for a week for work. Check-in was easy well-explained. The place looked just like the photos. The kitchen space was great and had a few supplies for cooking. The Metro was a 12-minute walk away. If you don't feel comfortable walking along S street, you can always walk along Rhode Island, which is a busier street and therefore has more cars. Fran and Timothy were friendly and quick to respond. There is free parking, but depending on how late you're looking, you may have to park several streets away; even so, I found parking and felt safe heading to the apartment, and my car was perfectly fine. This was such a cozy spot, and the shower is next level! Excellent stay. I'd definitely recommend for your visit to DC.
