Steve's place is perfect for a couple or small young family like mine! (me, my wife, and six-year old). The location was perfect for what we needed: 1. A few minutes walk to Target, CVS, local grocery stores. 2. A few minutes walk to the train station that zips you to about a five to ten minute walk to the National Mall. 3. No additional cost for parking like what the hotels around the National Mall charge
Being that we don't have great public transit where we live, the 10 min train ride to get us close to the National Mall was actually very enjoyable. When we visit DC again we will definitely be staying at Steve's! (Oh yes and the cool urban view from the large studio window was a joy to wake up to)
