This is the basement of a town house in Capitol Hill. We were a family of six (My wife and I, three kids and grandma). We fit very comfortably in the basement apartment which is nicely equipped including AC ( a must in DC in the summer). The Capitol Hill neighborhood is great and we spoke to many people in the neighborhood as we relaxed in the back yard patio. It's a perfect location, walking distance from the Capitol and the mall. Cristina and Orestes are great hosts who are very responsive to any questions we had. We highly recommend and would stay there again.
