Lovely house in a beautiful quiet street (except maybe for friday/sat. evening), with nice options for dinner and some shopping. Very near the metro station which connects you to downtown/the mall (and only 2 stops to the Walter E. Washington conference venue). The Norwell Room is big and very very comfortable. Directions to get here and to enter the house are very clear. Both Kathleen and Max responded quickly to questions before and during my stay. The housekeeper Mary is also very kind. Truly recommended!!
