The apartment is close to busses and the metro for access to the DC Mall and all of the Smithsonian attractions. 3 blocks away is a great Giant grocery store.
However one bedroom had bugs that bit my friend all over, a problem other guests have mentioned. Also, it took the Host 24 hours to respond to a request for dishwasher soap as the dishwasher had dirty dishes in it, bathroom hand towels, and kitchen dish towels.
And, the home is advertised as Elegant, but there is nothing Elegant about the apartment.
I would wait for the owner to bring the apartment to a higher standard or ask for a lower price.
