Grace's apartment was very comfortable, quiet and clean. It is well located to explore Washington. It is not close to the subway system but the No 42 Metro bus stop is 1 minute's walk away and this delivers you to the city, about 1 block north of the White House. Grace and her husband were good hosts. They provided very clear instructions by email regarding access to the apartment and allowed us to leave our bags there for several hours after checkout time while enjoyed our final walk around the area prior to leaving for the airport.
