The listing description was accurate and the neighborhood was very close to two Metro stations and a grocery store and safe to walk in the evening. You do not need a car if you stay here. We used UBER a lot and it was very cheap and convenient. We thought the lights controlled by different switches was strange and there was no way to turn off the lights from the bed. The single bed side lamp had a very low wattage bulb. The high pressure shower was the highlight of the stay. Having washer and dryer in the apartment was very convenient. There were children running constantly in the apartment above us even at night and making loud thumping noises. That was very irritating.
