My husband and I spent a week touring the Smithsonian museums . Diana's home is an ideal location...just an eight minute walk to subway and a 4 stop ride to the Smithsonian. We did not take a taxi or uber. The Eastern market and the liquor store are a block away. The neighbourhood is quiet, pleasant and safe. The apartment is private and well equipped. I was totally satisfied with our choice. Thanks Diana for your kind attention and a great experience in the nation's capitol.
