Laura's apartment is a little less than a block from the metro, this makes it a perfect spot to stay and be able to get around DC. She provides a room and a bathroom in her apartment and all the privacy that you would want. We (my sister and I) spent little time (just sleeping) there because we were touring around the city for the 3 days we were in town. The bedroom is small, but adequate with a closet and hangers. There is a dresser, but it is unsteady, we didn't use it because there was no need. The bed is a firm double bed and the bathroom is a full bath. She provided bath gel, shampoo and cream rinse. It's important that you communicate with Laura about when you will be arriving, she was not around mid-day, which was not a problem for us. We had communicated with her about our arrival time and it worked out perfectly with her schedule so we could move our luggage in and then take off to see the sights. There wasn't a hair dryer in the bathroom, but Laura loaned us hers when we asked. She told us we could store food in her fridge, but we didn't need to. I would recommend this location for anyone who is planning on spending most of their time out and about and is looking for a good location and a place to sleep.
