Susanne's beautiful home was the perfect base for our conference in Silver Spring, MD. The bedrooms were spacious and spotless, and she made a mini-fridge and coffee maker available for our personal use and provided a generous continental breakfast. The listing (an entire floor) was perfect for a group of colleagues traveling together, with ample beds and bathrooms for all. Susanne was a friendly and thoughtful host: she printed out walking directions to our conference to help us get there safely during morning rush hour, and pointed out landmarks and excellent restaurants to help us enjoy our stay to the fullest. All in all, it was a lovely experience - I highly recommend this listing to anyone wanting to be within a 5min walk from a Metro stop 20min from downtown DC, a 10-20min walk from fun multi-ethnic restaurants & bars...but still come home to a quiet place to sleep.
