The house looks great, it is clean, well maintained, and complete. The house has an air conditioner system that works great, but my room didn't have any. The room had only a ventilator and I needed to leave the door open for hours to refresh my room air sometimes. The mattress is a bit uncomfortable, but enough for staying just a few days. The rooms didn't have keys and the owners were away, so I felt unsafe leaving belongings like my laptop and DSLR camera in the room while away. I'm not sure if it was just coincidence but there was a shooting a few blocks from the house with one dead and one hurt, and a helicopter surrounding the area, kind of scary. During the same week, there was another shooting in downtown as well, so not sure if the problem is the neighborhood or the city. Regarding public transport, the buses close by have a gap of about 20 or 30 min. So it is better to walk 20 min to Anacostia Metro Station most of the time.
