I’m from DC and chose this place as a hometown getaway for my me and my girlfriend. It’s peaceful, charming and cozy. Mark is pretty responsive. I saw him briefly and he was cheery and warm.
Pros: natural lighting, plant collection full of succulents and tropicals, temperature controls in each room, spacious shower, fun record player and collection.
Cons: metal spiral staircase is narrow and inaccessible if you have any mobility issues. I can imagine it also being frustrating lugging bags up and down it. There’s so much construction happening in this neighborhood. Expect some construction sounds if you’re staying during the week.
