We had a great time here! I stayed with my husband and 8 year old son and it was perfect for our needs. It is located in a very safe building and the apartment was very quiet, apart from some typical city noise. We were able to walk to the National Mall very quickly and easily, as well as numerous restaurants and stores. If you plan to cook meals, make sure to check the kitchen supplies beforehand, as it does lack some items that might be essential to cooking (baking pans, large skillet).
