Although this unit has a funky back alley entrance, via an apparently ongoing construction project in the hosts' backyard, it was conveniently located for our short DC trip (just one mile east of the Capitol building's rear entrance), in a nice neighborhood that always felt safe and friendly.

Since we LOVE to explore cities by bicycle, we were delighted that there was a CapitalBikeShare rack just steps away from this unit. By using this service strategically, we were able to literally see and visit ALL of DC's historical sites in and around Capitol Mall for just $8 each over the course of just 24 hours!

This unit is very small and sparsely appointed with a slight mustiness (thus the hosts provide a dehumidifying appliance which we kept running at all times).

The hosts were friendly, informative and available to answer our questions.
