Stop browsing and just stay here: "Genevieve's Garden Suite" has everything you need for your trip to DC. It's safe and quiet, but also an easy walk to the Metro train and bus, from which all the sights are just minutes away. The room has everything a traveler might need, including snacks and toiletries, and it's decorated with such grace that you completely forget that you're technically in a basement. Peter's arrival instructions were detailed and his communications were thorough and thoughtful. He likes to meet his guests in person, so I took time to say hello on my first night in town. I'd definitely stay again.
