Ted's place was a great place to stay in DC. He has it stocked with everything you would normally find in a kitchen plus a Keurig and k cups for coffee which we used until we could go grocery shopping. Bus system which would take you to Union station was 3 blocks away and the free tram which goes up and down H street (many restaurants, 2 grocery stores) is 3 or 4 blocks the other direction. Great area for walking or biking. We found people were extremely friendly and helpful when we lost our way a bit. Should my sisters and I decide to return to DC would not hesitate to use his place again. He provided a list of restaurants and coffee places close by to use however we just ordered on line and got dinners delivered without problems.
