May's place is a lovely and quiet space in a great neighborhood with lots of hibiscus and flowering trees. I stayed in the front room which was spacious, clean, light and airy. The bathroom was roomy and everything felt very at ease. Mary was a welcoming and super efficient host in terms of reaching out, keeping in touch, updating me as needed, fixing a ceiling fan immediately when I mentioned it was not working. She left delicious espresso coffee fixings in the kitchen with milk and some other staples which were greatly appreciated by this "I don't talk till coffee" person--especially at 6 am call time. We chatted when I checked in and shared that we both love dancing. The next day she sent me a message about a neighborhood dance studio called "Joy Of Motion" holding a community class-- I was quite touched she remembered and offered that up! I would definitely stay here again if/when I am in DC. Fabulous stay with a great host, and highly recommended!
