I was visiting DC as a tourist for a few days, and the Carriage House was a great place for that. It's a few minutes' walk from the metro, but also in a quiet neighbourhood that felt very safe. The kitchen was very well equipped — I ate out every evening, but I could easily have cooked a full meal with the equipment there, and it was already stocked with sauces, a few staples, and things like that. Having laundry facilities was also very useful. Elmar and Michelle were very responsive. I highly recommend staying with them!
