Great location, between historic Downtown Washington and Logan's Circle: perfectly located for 14th street entertainment/restaurants. The basement studio is on a quiet street 2 mins walk away from a good selection of trendy restaurants and bars, less than 10 mins walk to the metro and less than 25 mins walk to the White House. Even though entertainment is right on the doorstep, the studio is quiet apart from the occasional noise from the house upstairs. The studio has good heating facilities (it was around -2 degrees C), wifi, tv and everything else you would need for a trip into town (fridge, hairdryer etc). Nice touches with a local area guide, chocs and water too! We didn't meet any of the hosts during our time but had no problem/reason to - the privacy was appreciated. Thanks Rick, Amy and Karl.
