Can’t recommend Shareena’s place enough! I stayed for two months when my summer housing fell through and she was as very accommodating. The room is more updated than the pictures show, very nice and clean. Shareena has a few roommates but I always felt my space was private and secure; everyone was respectful and nice. The neighborhood is very residential and I felt safe walking alone as a young woman, but there are some seedy areas nearby. There is not much around the neighborhood in terms of restaurants and grocery, but the metro is close (about a 10 minute walk) and a bus stop that goes through the Capitol Hill area to Tenleytown is literally at the front door. I did not have a car, but parking looks like it would never be an issue. The only thing to keep in mind is that the house is on a busy corner, so there is some noise. Overall, an amazing deal for the price and Shareena was a great host who never imposed!
