Ethel was a very kind host, and extremely helpful. She immediately guided me to my room, explained the house rules very clearly, and helped provide directions to my conference in Northwest. In addition, she was always willing to answer any questions if I had any concerns about public transportation, traveling in D.C., etc. The neighborhood was safe, and had great access to the rest of Washington D.C. Overall, staying at Ethel's house was a flawless experience. Due to great proximity to D.C.'s sights, as well as her generosity and kindness, I would definitely come back to stay at Ethel's house the next time I travel to D.C. It was a very good experience, and I would highly recommend Ethel's place to all of my friends or family traveling to D.C. 100% satisfaction.
