John’s place is great! Everything is nice and clean and the pillows on the sofa are really comfortable. We were welcomed by a plate of fresh fruit which was super nice after a day walk in DC. The dog is cute! About the location, I don’t think it is a problem for us. We walked directly from John’s place to US capitol within 30 mins. The road was in the shade of trees and the houses along it were beautiful so you wouldn’t get bored on your way. If you have heavy luggage, you can take a Uber to the place you want easily. Overall, this is a very nice stay and I will definitely come again if I visit DC again.
