Can't imagine a better place to stay in the happening and vibrant Shaw neighborhood. Sparkling clean, loads of space to stretch out, and thoughtful amenities made an immediately strong first impression. Bed is among the most comfortable I've ever had while traveling. Everything works! Dishwasher, washer/dryer, stove, fridge, wifi, etc. Zero glitches.
Don't sweat this being a downstairs apartment - there is decent light from the door and bedroom windows and I was always easily awakened by morning light through the blinds (just how I want it).
It treated me wonderfully for a two-week stay, so I suspect it will work for whatever duration brings you to our nation's capital.
