Great location in the NW quadrant of DC. We were 3 blocks from the metro which was the least expensive way to travel around the city. We did walk from the Airbnb to the White House and Smithsonian museums one day, which was at least 12000 steps one way. It was very easy to do and there were many things to see on the way. I am not a walker, but going south was mainly downhill. We took the metro to an Ethiopian restaurant, which was a lovely treat. There are multitude of Ethiopian restaurants not too far from this Airbnb on the metro. Tom and Adam's instructions on how to get from the Dulles airport to their home was right on, and very helpful.
