My fiancé and I stayed here for a long weekend and celebrated our anniversary. We couldn't be happier with our stay! It was lovely! We had actually booked it once some months before, but had to cancel due to some sudden changes. We got around to booking it again, and were thrilled that it was available, and that Alan was willing to host us! His place is fully equipped with the finer touches to make you feel like you're staying somewhere luxurious. The heated towel rack and bathroom floor, the light dimmers, the lounging couch, and exposed brick fireplace and wall are the things that make it special. Alan's place is also in the perfect location. It's close to transportation, restaurants, and bustling life, but still residential and private. If you enjoy walking like my fiancé and I do, this place is perfect for those who would enjoy a long walk through the heart of DC to the National Mall. You really get to see everything! If you're not walkers, the metro is just a block away. If I could rate our stay any higher than five stars, I would! Next time we are in DC, we would love to come back here. Thank you so much Alan, you were a wonderful host!
