The house was clean and comfortable. It was close to the bus and metro. If coming here without a car, I would suggest getting a smart trip card in advance so you could take the G8 bus to the Brookland metro. Its a 15 min walk but if you’d rather not walk 15 min uphill then the bus to metro is the way to go! We loved the area which was quiet and it was great to have a full kitchen complete with a crockpot and spices. Saved tons of money by eating breakfast at home and packing snacks and sandwiches for our daily adventures. We also were grateful for the washer and dryer. Kids get dirty. Especially running around the national mall while its drizzling. We were able to wash up jeans and sweaters. For food… Busboys and poets is a great place to eat only 15 min away. Have fun and enjoy! Kennie and Heather were easy to work with and were a huge help even after our trip. Great hosts!
