Payam's basement apartment is well situated for a visit to the Convention Center, the Shaw Neighborhood, or Chinatown (15 minute walk). The National Mall is only about a 25 minute walk. There is a nice and well equipment park/recreation center directly across the street, a grocery about 2 minutes walk, and an excellent coffee shop less than 5 minutes walk.
The 2 bedroom are spacious for a small basement apartment. The beds were comfortable. The common space is adequate for 2 to 4. The sofas in the common space are not that comfortable if you are trying to squeeze in a 5th or 6th. The bathroom is small but cute, efficient, and very modern. Appliances in the kitchen are adequate for even a longer term stay.
Check in was very easy and Payam communicated well. The apartment did have stained carpets and was not as clean as anticipated food particles on the appliances and small coffee table in the kitchen and hairs in the bathroom. These issues have been reported to Payam who will no doubt address them.
