Austin's place is very clean and well furnished! Water is hot! Location is nice. Comfy bed! Comfy pillows! Ample towels. Kitchen is well stocked. Very convenient check-in because it's keyless entry.

We had a few problems:
1) The ceiling is super low, feels like 6 1/2 feet. In the bathroom I had to duck. This is somewhat shocking when walking in and annoying throughout the stay.

2) We brought our car and used the parking pass (hooray parking pass! thanks for providing!) but we got in late and used our bikes the next day, didn't notice the signs saying we could not park on the street on Monday 12:30-2pm, otherwise we would get towed. We were towed and charged $145 in fines (but fortunately they towed us just one street over!) Watch for the signs about street cleaning.

3) loud family above: early in the morning and late at night there was lots of tromping around by the kids living above. Which significantly hindered sleep.

cute neighborhood! Cool light remote. Smelled a little musty, we were both sneezing the first night, there may be a bit of mold, which maybe is common in basement apartments?

Note to bikers: I had a hard time finding a good map of the bike lanes in DC, but travel on bike lanes was much easier (for us novices) than on roads with no bike lanes. To get to The Mall, we used 3rd st south, R St. bike lane east to the 15th St. bike lane south.
