we visited DC to see the many monuments and museums. we wanted a place that was not too far but also quiet and convenient. Graham's places met our expectations and more.
the location is great, there is a tram nearby which takes you to union station, but also about 25min walk to the capitol. the neighborhood is quiet enough and most importantly safe, can hear the occasional sirens passing by. we used a white noise app and never bothered us. there really wasn't noticeable traffic noise even without white noise. we live in the burbs so it's nice to spend time in a city, warts and all.
lots of shops and restaurants just steps away. whole foods and giant are both a block or two away. Graham was very communicative and gave us detailed instructions.
the place has everything we needed. there is a well equipped kitchen with full size fridge. we are our own breakfast and bought fruit nearby.
overall we wanted a comfy, convenient and safe place. we got that! a great trip!
