Mary was, without a doubt, the loveliest host Derek and I have ever had the pleasure of interacting with. She was helpful and communicative through the entire process of booking, procured us a parking pass (which is vitally important and eminently useful when driving in DC!!!), and was an utter delight to spend time with when we crossed paths in the kitchen. She is thoughtful, giving, and kind--I felt as though I were staying with a beloved aunt rather than someone I'd never met! As for the suite itself, it was very comfortable, clean, and spacious, with a great shared bathroom and a very functional little kitchen. Derek and I made a nice meal the last night we were there after going and picking up groceries at Eastern Market (HIGHLY recommended for the weekend!). The neighborhood is lovely to walk around in and it's very easy to access different parts of the city. All in all we had a wonderfully restful time, simply adored the suite and Mary, herself. I come down to DC about once a month to visit Derek and we've stayed in a different spot each time, hoping to find the perfect location. I think we've finally found it--we can't wait to book with her again.
