Craig and Lisa's "English basement" apartment is in a good, very quiet residential neighborhood, just 2 1/2 blocks from the Columbia Heights (Irving and 14th, NW) metro station on the yellow & green lines, for visiting D.C.'s art galleries and museums, which are mostly accessible from the Archives and L'Enfant Plaza metro stations. Local restaurants and shopping are within a couple of blocks on Mt. Pleasant St. and Columbia Rd, NW, and big stores by the metro station. The apartment, with a comfortable queen bed within a bedroom area having a desk for computer work, and a living-dining-kitchen room was very clean, and as a basement moderated the heat, which reached 80 outside a couple of days we were there. The WiFi operated well, and Craig printed out a few things we needed. All in all, a very good temporary home in a convenient and quiet location for a reasonable price.
