Nicole's place is within perfect walking distance of the DuPont metro, as well as all of the restaurants that the DuPont area has to offer. It's just an incredibly fun and vibrant area. The Phillips Collection is also nearby! Just be aware that the walls are very thin--you can hear people chatting as they walk down the alleyway from inside the bedroom, as well as traffic and any loud noises that come from the host's end of the building.
