If you’re looking for a great, we’ll located place to stay in DC with a larger family/group of friends no need to look further, you found it. We are familiar with Capitol Hill so knew what to expect with the neighborhood and general townhouse size but Barry’s place exceeded our expectations.
It is really large—we had plenty of space and lots of (large) bathrooms for 8 people. It is beautifully decorated including unique hardware and pictures. The back patio was perfect for relaxing and socializing after touring and the kids were very impressed with the massive tv. We easily walked to 8th Street restaurants, Eastern Market, and even the Capitol at night. We did not use the kitchen but it seemed well stocked including basics like coffee, condiments and even creamer. The off-street parking was really a bonus! Barry was also very communicative and accommodating.
Two things to note if you’re not familiar with Capitol Hill row homes/neighborhoods. One: there are a lot of steps—it is a three story house plus a basement (where the laundry is). Two: the alley to get to the parking is narrow. We got a minivan in without issues but it might make some drivers with larger cars nervous.
