This rental is in a great neighborhood and walk-able to many great restaurants, bars, and other fun sites around the city. You really feel like you are a part of the neighborhood when you stay here. Because of the location, you are not surrounded by tourists or the hustle and bustle of the city and it is quiet and cozy. That being said, it is also a quick walk to the center of Columbia Heights were a lot of the action is. We found easy, safe, and CHEAP parking at a covered garage near the local Giant grocery. The rental itself was very clean and well-stocked with the necessities for our stay. It felt very comfortable and cozy and we would definitely stay there again. Highly recommend.
