Patty's English Basement is the ideal place to stay if traveling to D.C. Patty is so fast at responding to our messages, from the day we booked until we checked out. With only a short two block walk to the metro and a short walk to the Capital Building, it makes it a great location. We took some of Patty's recommendations from her little guide binder she made, and stopped in at Loaf's Coffee, Bullfrog Bagels, and hit a few more highlight spots. The place is very clean with nice tasteful furnishings, and many thoughtful touches such as two metro cards, and some snacks. After a long day of walking around in the cold, it was nice to come back to a comfortable bed, a warm apartment, and a shower with hot water! We will for sure stay here again when we come back to DC.
