Our host was great, the location was excellent. It was a residential area in Georgetown with a playground in the corner and a 7-11 one block away. If you choose, you could walk 7-8 minutes to the M street with lots of restaurants and bars. The metro station was 10 min away. Our host was very attentive and helpful. He got us a permit to park on the street. This was my major concern and we had no problems.
