We stayed here with our four-year-old and it was an excellent location for us. Our kid loved the lively neighborhood and nearby playgrounds and we loved the Whole Foods across the street and the nearby coffee shops and restaurants. The apartment is just around the corner from the action on H Street but at the same time when we settled in for the night we found it surprisingly quiet. The location is a perfect base for exploring the vicinity and Capitol Hill—lovely neighborhoods here. It was relatively easy to take the city buses around, including to the Metro train at Gallery Place/Chinatown. The free tram going back and forth along H Street was also fun, even though it's a bit of a walk once you reach its terminus near Union Station down to the Metro station or, a little farther, the Circulator bus stop. All in all these transit options provide good access to the Capitol and the museums and monuments along the Mall, especially via the Circulator bus from Union Station. So we felt that by staying here we got a great combination: both an authentic taste of a lively DC city neighborhood and convenient access to the sights. Thanks for the great visit.
