This is the second time I have stayed in this basement apartment while traveling for business. This basement apartment is 1 block from the metro, safe, quiet, clean, comfortable and has nice touches (like shampoo etc in the bathroom, hair dryer, flowers on the table, extra towels, pillows, good welcome binder with tourist info and restaurant recs). Check in/check out is easy and Alison is very responsive to any questions. I hope this place is available next year when I return.
