Dawn's house is quiet, clean, and comfortable. Kitchen is well-stocked, laundry is free, internet is reliable, and heating/cooling is adequate, though a fan is handy on warmer nights.
The neighborhood is residential and safe. It's about a mile walk to Silver Spring restaurants, shopping, and the metro. Ideal for someone working in Silver Spring. You can live here without a car, if you don't mind carrying groceries and relying on the metro, buses, and walking. There is also a nearby path leading to Rock Creek Park, which offers scenic views and excellent walking/hiking paths.
Dawn's an extremely responsive and easy going host. I extended my stay through the summer because I enjoyed the house and experience so much.
