Dick is a wonderful and welcoming host. Very kind and helpful. The basement apartment is great for a single or couple. It is ideally located if you have work on the Hill or any of the museums. I had a $3 uber share ride to the Natural History Museum. It is also walkable, but about 30-40 minutes. Also super for toursits. The kitchen is nicely outfitted, and I cooked for every meal. The bed was super comfortable. Since it is a basement, the floors are cold, so bring slippers. I would come back in a heartbeat.
