Loved staying at Mahmoud’s place in DC! The front desk staff was extremely accommodating and let us into the room a little before check-in because the room was already ready, and let us keep our bags at the front desk after check-out since we had a late flight out of DC. Location was great— easily walked to The Mall and Georgetown. It is definitely more basic in terms of amenities but worth it because it is such a great value. We will be back!
