The U Street location is very convenient--close enough to walk to the sites, or to take a short Uber/Taxi ride. Richmond responded very quickly to any requests we had. The space is really designed for only one or two people. We were a party of three and found it a little cramped. The pull out sofa is a chesterfield that folds into a flat surface but with an uncomfortable ridge running down the centre and because the sofa was being used as a bed, there was no living area, per se. Also, it is a basement apartment, so we found it a little cool. All in all, it served our purposes and thus, it was fine and we were happy.
