Ellen and Pablo are fantastic hosts!! We had a slight issue within a few minutes of arriving and they were prompt and efficient in taking care of it for us. Coming and going was super easy and even though this is a basement apartment it does have a separate entrance we did not feel we were imposing, or were imposed upon.
What a comfortable and great space!! Super clean and well stocked. They even provided robes (which were obviously cleaned) as well as all the other little bits that made our stay as comfortable as can be. I want to take just a moment and emphasize the kitchen. If you are a cook, or not so much, but are looking for a place where you can fix some of your own meals, THIS IS THE SPOT!! VERY well stocked with all of the tools!! I am the guy that travels with his own kitchen knives and a few other things because I have been to so many places that simply do not provide quality kitchen tools. Well not necessary here. Pots, pans, spices, eating utensils, plates, glasses, coffee mugs... coffee, tea, some breakfast items, cleaning supplies, and on and on and on. The bathroom was also very clean and the shower was large, and very nice. It is obvious that they have taken great care in all their efforts to make this a comfortable space for anyone who is looking for a place to stay in DC.
The location is very handy if you are familiar with DC transportation options. Even being a little further out from the center of things, it is a quick Metro ride, Lyft/ Uber, or drive (if you are brave and know what you are doing) to anywhere you want to go. There are also many great local spots very close!!
I would highly recommend this spot.
