I often come to D.C. to visit my son who's in college. It was my first time staying at Mark's place. I couldn't asked for better location. Even though the kitchen was fully stocked with everything a top chef would want, we ate out almost every night since there were so many excellent restaurants all around it. The house was wonderfully decorated and comfortable in every way. I enjoyed house mates who were long term professionals staying there. It was great to meet people with such interesting backgrounds from other parts of the world. It felt like an extended family group. Mark was readily available whenever I had questions. He hosted a lovely brunch one day which was greatly appreciated. I'll be returning to D.C. soon and I now have a home away from home. I will book again for my son's graduation week for my family to be together.
