If you’re searching for a perfect place for two for your visit to DC, the carriage house is it. The Capitol is within walking distance, maybe 45 minutes, but there is a metro station about 10 minutes away. We took the metro every day, and it as very easy and convenient. There is also a Harris-Teeter grocery store about 10 minutes away. The carriage house is well set up for preparing your own meals, but if you prefer to dine out, there are several restaurants in easy walking distance. The bed and bedding is plenty comfortable, and the walk-in shower was very nice. There is also a washer and dryer, so you can pack light. David and Susan are excellent hosts, and we would definitely stay there again.
