Simcha’s basement apartment is very well located for most things a tourist could want to do in D.C. We enjoyed our stay. Some considerations: Access to the unit requires the ability to climb stairs. It is a basement unit so it is mostly underground. There are small windows in each room that are able to be opened. The bathroom is quite unique and we enjoyed it. The only thing to note that may not be for everyone is because the shower is open to the room, if you shower, the floor will stay wet for some time after. It is not slippery at all, but walking in to use the bathroom after will require walking on the wet floor. My biggest complaint is simply that the entrance is under the porch of the home and that entry area has a dirt floor. The problem with that is dirt gets tracked in when people or animals go in or out. My biggest praises are that it is wonderfully located, quite unique and Simcha is extremely responsive and welcoming.
