We had a great time at Irna's place. It is close to a ton of places to eat. We had fun visiting an Amazon Fresh for the first time along with Jeni's ice cream which I highly recommend.
Irna went above and beyond as a host. We had a red eye flight and she let us leave our luggage at the house before checkin. She notified as soon as the cleaners were done and we were able to check in two hours early and get some much needed sleep.
The house was plenty big enough for my family of five. There was minimal noise, just an occasional pedestrian and some loud birds a little before six in the morning.
If you are looking for a home base within walking distance (longish walk) to the National Mall, this is a very good choice.
