If you don't mind a brief bus ride or inexpensive lift into downtown D.C. then this cozy flat is exactly what you want. It's nestled in the Anacostia Park - area, which is still developing. The living room was spacious, with a nice-sized work desk and plenty of space to fit your clothing. AC/Heat worked fine, check-in to the home was quick, and D was responsive. I brought my bicycle with me from NJ, and I was 20-minutes away from everything I needed. It may seem a bit out of the way, especially if you are walking. But if you're commuting in-and-out of downtown D.C., this place is more affordable than many others across the pond. Some may think the neighborhood is unsafe, but I found it to be very quiet and pleasing. The neighbors look out for each other, no one causes a problem and I felt safe walking by myself in the middle of the night. Bring a firestick or Hulu, as this location did not have any cable TV or basic channels. Full-size fridge comes in handy when travelling with family.
