This is a nice place on a charming, quiet street in a safe and ideally-located neighborhood. Walking distance to a couple Metro lines and tons of restaurants. As others have mentioned, it is quite small (especially the bathroom), so it's a fine place to spend your nights but not the best for lounging around or having people over. Yes, it's a basement apartment, but it's nicely decorated, clean, and has enough light that you don't feel subterranean. Although if someone is staying upstairs, you can hear them walking around. Ed is pleasant and gives good, detailed info. The place was spotless but could use a day or two of some handyman TLC for a few minor fixes.
