Excellent location for the DC Mall area. I walked to the Capital Building, Smithsonian Museums, Union Station, and more. I felt safe the whole time. Nearby Whole Foods, cafes, and a 420 dispensary if that appeals to you. The accommodation is the basement of a cute Brownstone on a nice tree lined street with neighbors walking dogs. The basement was well stocked, clean, and I had no problems. I would stay here again.
