Everything was as described in the advert. The room is ample and clean, the bed is very comfortable and the ensuite bath is truly fantastic. The coffee maker is definitely a big plus. Derrick is attentive and respectful of his guests' privacy. The neighbourhood is pleasant and quiet, although it is not that easy to get from there to the centre of DC. It will take you about an hour by public transport, but rather than the location of Derrick's place this has to do with how the public transport network works in DC. Apart from that, Derrick's place is very recommendable.
