Staying at the 505 was a wonderfully welcoming experience. Chris was out of town, but his partner, Bryan, took great care of me and even offered me homemade gazpacho soup when I arrived. The location was perfect for me: close to tons of restaurants and cafes on U street that I love and Bryan, as well as other guests, also had suggestions of favorite spots. But everyone very much respected each other’s privacy and I enjoyed a few very low-key, anti social days lounging on the giant king bed and in the jet tub. I would LOVE to stay here again.
