Rae was very sweet and offered great advice for local coffee and breakfast places although we didn't get to see one another much during my week-long stay, unfortunately. The room is garden level so we did have some "outside visitors" - I think that would be the case anywhere in DC. Also, Rae is not exaggerating when she says she doesn't have any space in the fridge so don't count on being able to cook much here, especially if considering a longer stay. Great location, spacious room and super comfy bed!
