Alex and Shelby were very helpful and welcoming hosts. The apartment was cozy, clean, quiet, and close to the 53 and 54 bus, which is a short ride to the Columbia Heights metro stop that takes you to all of DC's tourist sites. It was a nice place to stay for our four day trip to DC. The neighborhood is quiet, which can be nice after a day spent with crowds, but ensure you get what you need for snacks and food. The neighborhood is very quiet for travelers coming from NYC.
