It's a nice basement apartment. Very clean and true to the photos provided in airbnb. All facilities were adequately provided and good quality. The apartment is located in a quite residential area and very near ( 1 block) to Potomac Avenue subway metro station and 1 block away from the local metro buses 30N, 30S, 32, 34,36. This really helps in flexibility to take local transport to go to museums and other areas. One can buy a metro card ($2 + added value) from metro station which can be used on buses and metro. There is a supermarket -Harris Teeter just round the corner for groceries and stuff. CVS is 2 blocks away. Overall a very good stay. Travel tips - Make use of free DC Circulator buses which covers most of the sightseeing areas.
