Great space for a large group with a car. Clean and host was excellent! We had 7 people (2 adults and 5 older teens), and the bedrooms had plenty of space even with one person on an air mattress on the floor of the master bedroom. Kitchen was beautiful and we cooked breakfast every day. Laundry was an added bonus. Street parking seemed always available on the block in front of the unit, but you really have to be comfortable parallel parking. We always parked in the space behind the unit. It is a little confusing to find at first, and appears to be a tight fit, but we got our van backed in no problem (much easier to get out if you back in).
We drove everywhere because we are comfortable with city driving. Parking is tough in DC, so we decided to spend the extra money to park in the Reagan building garage right next to the National Mall while visiting the museums and monuments ($25/day - but very worth it to us).
Neighborhood is fine, but we didn’t spend any time walking around it. We did get takeout- highly recommend Sticky Rice. Also got decent pizza at Manny and Olga’s, both on H street.
We really enjoyed our stay at Chris’s place!
