I stayed at Heather's with my father for 5 nights and had an absolutely fantastic time. The house is in a lovely neighbourhood which is really easy to get into downtown DC from. Also the house itself is equipped with everything you would need. Heather even allowed us to use the washing machine to clean our clothes ready for the next leg of our trip. The host is a very interesting lady who was very welcoming and available to help with anything you might need. I would highly recommend staying with Heather.
