We found this a great escape from the touristy parts of DC. The basement apartment was perfect for our family, especially being so close to Rock Creek Park where our daughter is working this summer. It had all the facilities and implements to cook a family dinner and enough room for 4 of us, including 2 grown children. The hosts were particularly responsive, even by text in the middle of the night when the A/C kept making it colder. Thank you for a great vacation!
