Perfect for our week stay in DC.
This Basement home was just as described. The free parking on the side of the home was a huge plus although we really didn’t need it if you were just going to stay in DC.
Upon entering through the gate a welcome light automatically came on which made it nice. The gate that you have to go through has a slid lock on the inside Preventing anyone from the outside open it to get to the front door.
The living room was comfortable for sitting and having our coffee and breakfast in the morning.
Right next to the living room was the kitchen. It looked like it had everything to Prepare meal however we never cooked.
Once entering the Bedroom was a nice full bed that was very comfortable and I slept on the day bed it’s surprisingly was also very comfortable. There were enough pillows and blankets
The bathroom is also in the bedroom towards the back . There was plenty of hot water, towels and wash rags The shower-head is very tall which is nice if you have someone that is 6 foot.
You can hear the family above however because of prior reviews we cane prepared. We had 2 sound Machines and I had ear plugs and that took care of the issue of being woke up.
I felt this home had Adequate Natural light for a basement. 2 windows in the front, half moon window in the front door, window outside the bedroom door and one in the bathroom.
Washer and dryer was so nice since we travel light.
This home is 2 bocks from H street that has a free trolley to Union Square metro. It’s only 22 minute walk to the metro and really only hour walk to just about everything. If you count the time spent waking to the metro, riding and switching trains than waking to what you want to see it was just easier for us to walk to everything we want to see.
There were 5 metro cards left for our use. This was nice since each card cost $2. We just loaded cash on each card at the metro station. We left them for the next travelers.
Since we travel only with carry-on luggage we purchase pepper spray when we arrived but never felt like we needed it. Everyone we encounter in and near the neighborhood was super nice.
Communication with Claire was superb!
