This is the perfect place to stay if you want to explore the city away from the typical tourist spots, especially up and coming restaurants. The proximity to metro makes everything accessible, and the value is fantastic which is immediately obvious if you've looked at hotels and other rentals in the city.
Be prepared for slightly longer metro rides to monuments/the mall/other major attractions but they're still completely doable and you get to pocket the price difference or spend it on an awesome meal out.
