This was the perfect place for our DC trip! The place seemed newly renovated, it was very clean, kitchen was well-stocked, beds very comfy & very bright (for a basement unit!) It was only a short, easy drive to attractions near the National Mall and we never had a problem parking near the unit. The owners were also very quick in their communications. It was very quiet and peaceful during the day and night. We never heard any voices or TV/music from upstairs or neighbors. (However, during early evening you could hear footsteps and the creaking of floors & stairs above you.)
