Staying at R&R was perfect for my friend and myself on our short stay in DC. The price is a great deal in terms of location and the space. You need a specific key to enter the gated building altogether, so I would say I felt safe. Moreover, it is in the middle of Columbia Heights so it is near food and shopping which was perfect! If you are looking for a place with a lot of space this may not be for you but it was perfect for us because it was just the 2 of us. The decorations are so cute and they even provided a binder that included things to do in DC, house rules, wifi, and other info. The hosts responded so quickly and were very easy to contact. I needed to call them because I had trouble finding the keys (note that they provided very clear instructions and I was just lost 😂) but they answered immediately and were so kind. The place was extremely clean, dishes and cutlery provided, and even left us a few treats and some tea. We really loved the space and so thankful that Roberto and Ruth were able to share their space with us.
