This was a great place to stay while visiting DC, seeing all the sites and touring all of the museums and monuments. It's far enough out to avoid the crowds around the mall, but still just a couple of blocks from the subway. It's just a short walk to the back entrance to the zoo.
It was roomier than the photos suggest, and Melissa provided everything needed from plenty of clean towels and linens to suggestions on great places to eat. The washer and dryer was a real boon as well. One thing to keep in mind, as described in the listing, the apartment is in the basement, so there is often some noise from upstairs. But my wife and I enjoyed the location, the cleanliness, the comfort and the convenience. We would definitely stay here again.
