Fantastic location in regards to the National Mall, Georgetown, and some great places to eat. I would recommend getting a metro pass or utilize the circular buses. We also just walked down to the National Mall a few times as well. Lea’s place is clean and comfortable for sight seeing. Not much space for chilling inside but you don’t need that when your are in D.C. There are several parking garages in the area. It took us a little bit to find one that would keep our car for the week. Most places would not do overnight. We eventually were able to go with Colonial Parking ($25 average a day) which was right across the street. My husband and I had a great stay and would come back again if ever in the area.
