This home is is a nice neighborhood with lots of young families (who all seemed to have dogs. :)) and if you are not averse to walking 12 or so blocks to the mall where the museums are located, a choice spot to spend some time in Washington. Of course, one can also secure transportation via Uber/Lift (very speedy) or the bus which has a stop nearby.
The house is a bit in need of refurbishment but still comfortable if you can overlook items like somewhat threadbare bed linens and towels, dead light bulbs in unreachable spots, and a rather overall impression that some paint and sprucing up could do wonders for the place inside and out.
