Great place to stay. Right next to the police department. Closest bus stop going to the National Mall is a 4 minute walk. You can get a Smartrip card to the nearest Giant Foods (3 minute walk). There is parking if you decide to rent a car. The place is clean and kid friendly. There's some suggestions for restaurants nearby. Overall, a great place to stay if you want to head down to the National Mall. Also the Washington National Catherdral is nearby (6 minute walk).
