Dick's basement level apartment in Washington DC was great, and everything we expected. The location is the biggest plus for the apartment. It is about a 10 minute walk directly to the capitol. The neighborhood is safe. Dick is super friendly and easy going. He really went out of his way to make sure we had what we needed, including getting us a temporary parking permit. He was also very available when we needed a second key, and always easy to get in touch with. Having laundry available was a big plus. The bathroom was a bit tricky, as its down a short utility hall, and only accessible through the apartment bedroom.
