My daughter and I had a wonderful 2 week stay with Patrick, Georgie, and Henry and Petunia, the canines of the family. They were very accommodating and helpful as we navigated our way through settling my daughter in for graduate school. The photos don't do it justice. It is on a par with a 4/5 star hotel with beautiful tiled floors and bathroom. It was very roomy & comfortable; very nicely decorated and felt nothing like a basement room might suggest. It was very bright and cheery with two windows bringing in the sunshine. Having use of the adjacent laundry was extremely helpful. I particularly enjoyed spending time in the back yard by the pool relaxing to the sound of the waterfall feature. Though we did not have a lot of time to take advantage, the proximity to the Potomoc and canal walking and biking trails was very inviting.... maybe next time! There are a number of very good restaurants within walking distance. We had our car, but we found it easy enough to get ourselves to the National Mall using public transportation....and other places you don't want to drive!
