Compact but nice basement apartment in good location with a 5-8 minute walk to Columbia Heights metro with easy access in to DC sights. Melissa was very accommodating with easy check in and check out. It's located in a quiet, safe and pleasant neighbourhood with plenty of stuff going on nearby in terms of eateries and bars and some shopping like CVS pharmacy and Target (which in the US also sells groceries). There's also a lively little strip at the top of the street with a small supermarket with diverse produce we didn't see elsewhere.
