Great communication with host which made it easy and convenient to stay in DC. Ethel always responded to my texts promptly, which helped a lot when planning my trip and while we were in DC. Bedroom and private bathroom were nice and secluded, so we felt like we had enough privacy when we needed to rest for awhile. House is well decorated, but isn't as immaculate as the pictures portray it. Really close to the subway line, which was probably the best feature because we took it every day.
