Ben's place is in an amazing location. It's a short walk to Logan Circle and just a tad further to Shaw. Between Logan and Shaw many of DC's best restaurants are located within a short walk. If you are visiting the convention center it is a reasonable 10 minute walk. If you like to walk, you can also get to many of the Smithsonian museums within 30 minutes. If not metro/uber in a very short time. The apartment is quite charming with exposed brick as well as good sized kitchen, living room and dining room. As 1BRs in DC go, its quite large. Ben is a really nice guy - good communication and a friendly way. I highly recommend.
