The location is great, about a 8 or 9 minute walk to the Shaw/Howard subway station, and from there you can get anywhere in the city or airports. There are great little restaurants within a few blocks (Black Bear Cafe right around the corner is fantastic). If you're feeling like a walk in the morning (Better yet grab a scooter) the capitol is about 25 minutes straight down first street. The place was exactly as described and photographed, has everything you'll need. The only complaint I can even think of is the upstairs neighbors walked heavy from about 6am to 8am. They had ear plugs available right next to the bed, so no big issue there.
