-check in was very easy. the only downside is a key is required to unlock the doors. We just made it a point to put it in the same zipped pocket to ensure we didn't lose it. Other than a physical key for entry, we have no complaints.
-the host was very responsive, and made the experience a pleasurable one. they gave us tips along the way, and checked in often to ensure we weren't running into any problems.
-a folder with local places to eat made it very helpful figuring out where to eat
-metro passes ready to use was a huge convenience
-a 2 min walk away from a bus that takes you straight to the DC museums! maybe 30-35 min ride, but plenty to see while riding.
-many restaurants within walking distance, Mexican, Ethiopian, classic American.
-a local Farmer's Market on Saturday morning with live music and authentic feeling
-parking was not a problem. theres abundant parking on the street.
-convenience stores close by, many open late.
-coffee available in the room! We made coffee 2 mornings, and enjoyed local coffee from the Farmer's Market the other one.
-the place was clean, and bed very comfortable.
-NES equipped with Zelda was available for play.
-we would stay here again, and recommend to our friends.
