Graham is a very responsive host. He responded within minutes to every email I sent him. His house is beautifully restored, very clean, neat and well appointed, with tasteful decor. The appliances were sparkling clean , as the rest of the kitchen and the bathroom. He was very helpful when we arrived, which I appreciated. Leaving two craft beers for us was a very nice touch. The location could hardly have been better - we could walk to the major tourist areas on the National Mall, passing Union Station on the way there. He warned us that there might be street noise at night, and thoughtully provided ear plugs to help with that, but we did not need them. Bear is such a lovely dog and we were privileged to meet him.
