It's great if you want somewhere to stay close to the main sights in Washington, about 30 mins walk to the Capitol building and 10 mins to the metro station. H Street is about 5 mins walk away and has great cafes and restaurants along it. As others have commented, as it's the basement flat it is noisy with the neighbours above; footsteps and voices carry very loudly. So, it's not a place to relax in the evening, but we were out all day so it didn't impact greatly, and fortunately they didn't stay up too late. Just bring some earplugs if you're a light/early sleeper! There was a problem with the parking permit that couldn't be found when we arrived, but Robert was quick to respond via messages and advise on an alternative free spot, so although we had to park elsewhere for the duration of our stay, it was at least nearby, and I trust Robert has sorted this for future guests. Overall, value for money in a quiet neighbourhood, but close to the sights and great places to eat.
