This basement apartment is clean and quiet and well located. The neighborhood is one of many in DC that is undergoing a revival so there is a mix of old and new business in the area. Beautiful 1900's row houses to enjoy. Some amazing restaurants literally within a block. (HINT: Bad Saint was easy to get into on Tuesday night at 5pm!) A small corner store across the road was helpful. Public transit is a few blocks away for both the Metro and the DC Circulator. If you are coming from a suburban or rural area, remember you are in a big urban area and as such you should exercise caution when walking alone at night. I used Lyft a few times and that worked well. My friend and I had a great time in DC and having such a clean, comfy, and safe place to plan our adventures to museums, shops, and historical Georgetown was ideal. I'd certainly recommend this AirBnB highly if you like being in a neighborhood rather than a sterile hotel. AND everyone we met in DC was welcoming and friendly!
