I had a most enjoyable stay at Niki's basement studio in Tenleytown. It's located in a quiet, safe, and very accessible part of NW DC, close to several Red line metro stations and bus stops. The studio itself is well furnished, exactly as described, with all the appliances and accessories a visitor would need for a stay in the city. As a former resident of NW DC, I was quite familiar with the neighborhood and didn't really need much advice or guidance from Niki about getting around. I did bring my car from Florida on the auto train but generally used public transportation to avoid DC traffic. Niki provided me with a parking permit so that I could leave my car parked on the street during the day, where there were plenty of available spaces. Niki is a friendly, responsive, and thoughtful host who obviously cares about the well-being of her guests. I would definitely stay there again and would recommend her basement studio to any friends planning a visit to DC.
