We chose this place because it is only a few blocks from our DC family. Quiet neighborhood. You can walk to a small number of very good restaurants and a bit longer walk takes you to the Shaw neighborhood for an excellent brew pub and more places.
Bus transportation is good (map apps will tell you which bus to take where). Subway is about a 15-20 minute walk. Car service is always around.
But... the place really, really needs a good cleaning and it was very, very cold. The bed is only a double - not really too comfy for us older folks. And the whole place was a bit dreary, musty, and uncared for. The wifi did not work for at least two days. We gave up and moved after that so don't know if he got it fixed.
