Myself and my two girlfriends drove from Baltimore and reserved this space to have a place to sleep for one night because we were going to a black tie affair in DC. Thang was extremely responsive throughout the booking process and if I had any questions. He even purchased a tall mirror to put in the space after I inquired if one was there (we wanted to be able to see our whole outfits before leaving out)! Finding street parking was fairly easy and the space had the basics, a microwave, fridge, bathroom, etc. Very clean and quaint.
Only concern, which unfortunately was a major one, was how we felt treated when we arrived. After following the instructions to check in by getting the key out of the lock box, upon opening the door Thang's father, without a smile or even a nod, pointed to me to sit down and take off my shoes. He then literally stood over me watching me as I took my shoes off, then escorted me in the direction of the space. As I went to get things out my car, he locked the door on me and I had to put all my things down to unlock the door. My two girlfriends arrived separately, and they too felt very uncomfortable, stating that Thang's parents just "stared at them" while they came in. We did not feel welcomed at all. Even with a language barrier, certain things are universal about hospitality; smiles, a wave or nod. And to read all the other reviews that said that the family was nice as well made us feel even more bad...like why were we not treated with the same warmth?
There were only two towels in the room although three of us were staying there, so you may need to make sure to bring your own towel. Also, the futon only had a throw on it, not a blanket for the third person to sleep under, so you should probably bring a blanket as well. Honestly, this space is advertised for 4 people, but the futon is small so just be prepared to have three in the bed and one on the futon, or, if two on the futon, just know it will be a tight sleep.
Overall, the room did serve its purpose. We came in after our event, passed out and checked out the next morning. Would I stay there again? Probably not, but I wouldn't discourage others from doing so.
