This is a great space located among DC row houses in a trendy upscale DC neighborhood walking distances to restaurants, stores and bars. Apartment is downstairs in lower level of a row house with its own entrance. Though I have seen other DC reviews with renters reporting feeling uncomfortable with locations in lower level of row houses, This location felt both safe and private. I never saw or heard whoever lives above. Once inside , apartment is fully functional with everything you could need and does not feel as if you are downstairs in a basement apartment. These accommodation seem typical for this neighborhood and actually seemed quite upscale as far as DC Realestate.
This is great location for people without cars because you can easily walk around the neighborhood and DC is a pedestrian city. However as a Floridian not used to public transportation, I prefer to have my own transportation especially to visit nearby states. The parking on the street near facility is prohibitive since it is limited to people with residential pass and parking garages cost on average $50 per day amd will not be allow you to go in and out. As result we took our chances with street parking and fortunately did not get a ticket but I would not have taken a chance on that if I would have realized that parking was going to be a problem. This location is best for someone without a car.
Host was interactive as much as I needed to be by phone and readily answered questions.
