The location of this apartment is very nice. The neighborhood is safe with many eating options nearby, as well as grocery stores and drug stores. The Metro is just a short walk away, so it is easy and convenient to get to The Mall and the Smithsonian Museums. The National Zoo is located nearby and is easily accessed by foot. Communicating with the host was easy and responses were prompt. This place is small and is best if being used mainly to crash. If you want to entertain/hang out, this may not be the place for you.
