One Month Residency in Washington DC

My wife plans on interning at the Library of Congress for one month this summer.
The biggest obstacle in our way is finding a place where she can live for that month and not end up in the poor house.
Does anyone know of any inexpensive and above all safe places she could or should stay?

Thanks!

Office at the Library of Congress in chage of the internship would be your best source of info. They must get this question a lot. There are furnished short-term apartments (e.g., corporate apartments) in the area. Lots of people work in DC on short term contracts, internships, etc. I stayed at the Oakwood Apartments in Southwest (not too far from the LOC) for a month or so several years ago.

I agree with reply # 1.
Also, you can put a message on the craigslist, under "sublet/temporary" and/or "housing wanted". With all the Smithsonian Museums on the Mall, the LoC, EPA, dept. of Agriculture, and the like all in the same area, it shouldn't be difficult to find a nice furnished studio or 1 bedroom apartment in Capitol Hill area...

Craigslist Washington DC

I just tried to have an idea:

OP, you've gotten excellent advice from #1 and #2.

I certainly have.
Thanks for the help!

craigslist DC is the way to go.

I lived in DC from 2003-2006 and found my place on craigslist as well as subletted on Craigslist...not much use to you - but we had a great furnished place very near LOC so places do exist :)
