We moved our daughter into college and dedided a long term stay would best serve our needs and did we make one of the best decisions ever in selecting Chima's warm and beautifully appointed home. There was more than enough space for three generations of family members and the kitchen was big enough to hold two granmothers! The basement apartment was perfect for big brothers and their game system. The neighborhood is historic Southeast DC and the neighbors were friendly- especially the two young entrepreneurial sisters who were selling TWO kinds of lemonade on the very hot day we arrived. Getting around was easy and the area boasts all the necessities for a ease-filled stay- grocery store, park and a gorgeous library. Chima was an extremely attentive host and checked in enough without feeling intrusive and was immediately responsive to any message I sent. While there was plenty of street parking, the two dedicated spots in the back of the house were definitely appreciated. We absolutely plan to make Chima's house our go-to for the next four years.
