Location and location. Charming basement apartment that had everything we needed. Located on the east side of the mall and nestled in a quaint, pleasant, cute, safe, walkable area with local restaurants/shops. Eddie answered all our questions and clearly knows the area with the best advice. This location is a few blocks from the Supreme Court and Capital plus very close to the metro station which came in handy to save on Lyft rides. Eddie and his family ensured we were having the best experience and genuinely interested in being a 5 star host. I highly recommend his place to have the best experience in DC and homemade cookies! We hope his place is open for our next visit.
