Likely a typical English basement stay with the added bonus of bright light space.
Soft bed, excellent appliances, small space (particularly the bathroom and bedroom-worked fine for just me and my husband). AMAZING location. Neither the table with stools or the futon proved ergonomically suitable for my husband to work at for more than an hour, but when you’re used to an ergo office space, working from “home” can be tricky! Richard was great about responding to my inquiry about fluctuating temperature (from MN so we were not used to the muggy heat of DC!) and was kind enough to check in to be sure we had no issues upon arrival.
Three things to be aware of: you can easily get ANYWHERE from this spot (woo!), the dryer vents will bring in scents from elsewhere in/near the building (typical of any house really), if you expect to use the patio area be familiar with the effect DC weather has on older outdoor spaces.
Overall, this was a good landing spot for my husband and I while in DC for a couple days. Thanks for the hospitality Richard!
