Asegedech’s place is in an up and coming neighborhood. A couple streets in either direction may seem questionable but we walked a lot and never had an issue. She is in the process of updating the interior but she has decorated a cozy environment. I was disappointed that we couldn’t use the stove but the microwave prevailed. Spacious kitchen and plenty of Fridge space. I highly recommend visiting Yang’s Market for quick grocery items as well as made to order sandwiches and salad’s (Delicious) and Huacatay Peruvian restaurant (Awesome). They are both about 10 min walk and worth the effort.
Also use the Metropolitan Branch Trail to walk to Union Station (30 min +-) then us the Circulator to get around DC. Its only $1.
