The condo is in an up and coming neighborhood. The metro is a decent hike but renting a bike or scooter can make it fun. The bus line is available on Benning but the area isn't that safe.
We used the car services often which were very reasonably priced.
The condo and amenities are wonderful. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The washer and dryer were a huge plus (extra surprise was laundry soap and dryer sheets were provided.). We washed our clothes allowing us to have to bring less and we washed towels. The beds and pillows are very comfortable and clean. My teenagers loved the double bunk beds.
Our hosts were amazing. They responded to any questions within 10 minutes. We arrived at 10 a.m. but check in wasn't till 3 p.m. We asked if it was possible to drop our bags off at the house. Guests were still checking out so our hosts provided us with local options until the condo became available. We took their suggestion to see Union Station which was beautiful. They contacted us right away once we could drop our bags off. The cleaning crew was very nice and welcomed us. We went for a walk and then enjoyed the backyard until check in time. Since we arrived on Xmas Eve our hosts provided us with a few restaurants that were open.
Our 7 day visit was enjoyable and relaxing. This condo is very well maintained, very clean, the hosts are helpful and responsive, the location is good for access to everything - just have comfortable walking shoes.
Overall we had a great holiday vacation and enjoyed our stay very much.
