Brian's place is clean and carries all the amenities one might need for a short stay. The living space is well lit which belies the fact that it is in the basement. The house sits close to rock creek park and is in a great neighborhood. Brian was kind enough to let us check in 2-3 hours prior to the check in time which made a world of difference on our day of arrival. Be sure to walk over to the Highland café that is a short walk from his place.
