alex' place is quite centrally located. from there to the national mall it takes ~30 minutes by foot. there was parking space we could use directly behind the house. also, there was a fully equipped kitchen on the ground floor you can use. upstairs, there are 3 rooms which are all listed on airbnb. all share one bathroom plus toilet downstairs. everything was there you need. the only thing is that you can hear almost everything that happens in the house, so you may want to bring earplugs. overall a really good choice if you want to discover DC. compared to quite expensive hotels in this area, this accommodation is a real steal.
