Ben and his dad (who also lives in the building) were very nice and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again. Ben was unresponsive to email at first so I had to call him. He has a newborn baby so I think that might have had something to do with the lag on email communication! haha. But he always answered the phone or got right back to me with call or text. The location is great in terms of safety and proximity to the National Mall and Smithsonian museums. We enjoyed walking to these destinations from the house, but also an Uber Pool was under $5 to and from the Mall and Union Station.
The room was clean and quiet and has a private entrance. It was a lot of fun to stay here.
