This is a fantastic area, close to metro, and grocery store and restaurants. Lisa was quick to respond to any questions we had. The apartment is in the basement but is cozy and nicely decorated and very clean. It was so easy to shop and cook meals too. We spent long days sightseeing in DC but it was a short metro ride to the apartment. Loved the area. Very safe. Lots of people out and about at night. We would definitely stay there again.
