Lynn's apt is delightful! She is on a quiet street near the National Zoo and the bus stop that takes you to a nearby Metro station is right outside her door. Definitely figure out the bus routes; otherwise you'll be walking a mile to the nearest Metro Station. IF you don't have a car. And I got around DC easily with the buses and the Metro. She lives around the corner from the Mt Pleasant neighborhood which is full of lots of restaurants, a good bakery and interesting shops. The apt is very clean and comfortable and the mattress was almost as comfortable as my own. Definitely a gem on the edge of downtown DC!
