Our family of 5 had a great time in Washington DC, and Lora's place was a wonderful and charming home base for our busy week. We used the metro for getting everywhere, and since there is a station a short walk away, it was very convenient. Groceries, etc are also a short walk away, so we were easily able to grab what we need or buy ingredients for meals we prepared in the kitchen. We liked the neighborhood (although we were sightseeing enough that we didn't stay there too much during the day). Lora was always available if we needed something and made everything go quite smoothly. She really is a great host.
Washington DC is a wonderful city to visit, and staying at such a charming row house unit was just part of the fun!
