My daughter and I stayed the week of July 4th in the 2bd basement apt. It was conveniently located to all the DC attractions. We felt safe, even when we were out walking, biking after dark. There are bike rental stations a couple blocks away, this is the best way to get around. The apt was clean and had everything we needed. Central AC worked great during the"heatwave of 2018", felt good to come back to a cool place. Parking can be difficult, Union Station parking garage has in/out availability and isn't to expensive. My only complaint is the people above us. I don't know if they knew there was a basement apartment, but it sounded like they were dropping bowling balls on the floor, and walked heavy footed. It's more noticable in the kitchen /living room. Besides that the neighborhood is very quiet. Also, the hot/cold water indicator in the shower is backwards, hot water is down:)
