Staying with Max (and Audrey the cat) was wonderful! I felt so welcomed and at home, great access to a garden/farm share, a room with all the amenities one could need, and Max was always so kind and accommodating. It's about a 15 min walk to the metro, or a quick bike ride, or the bus comes at the end of the street (so easily accessible to downtown DC! And Audrey is perhaps the best thing about staying here, she is so kind and friendly and her wake-up meows made my mornings so much brighter! Would absolutely recommend staying here if you want to be a bit outside the bustling city and with access to nature and in a comfortably sized home.
