Roscoe's place is a funky basement apartment in the very pretty Takoma Park neighborhood. While it has the normal eccentricities that come with an old house (which I actually love), it is clean and conveniently located about a 15 minute walk from a Metro station (5 minutes from the bus), and near a grocery, pharmacy, and restaurants. Roscoe is a FANTASTIC host willing to share tips, recommendations, and greens from the little yard garden. It can get a little chilly so bring a long sleeve, and there's no coffee pot so, if you're a coffee drinker, bring your own supplies. Anything you need can be easily purchased in the area - it's a great value and as advertised!
