The location is fantastic! Although everything in DC is more spread out than you think, this basement unit is close to the Capitol, local restaurants, Metro station and even a Whole Foods. Travis was a great communicator and quickly responded to questions. I felt very safe walking in the neighborhood with my two kids at night. I would recommend this space to others, just hope that you don't rent at the same time as a bunch of guys rent the upstairs unit for a bachelor getaway - there is little sound-proofing between the floors and we were kept awake at nights by their antics. (The other nights when there were different renters we had no noise issues at all.)
