We booked very last minute and Shaun was very accomodating in his communication responsiveness. Getting into the house was also very easy and clear. The room was comfortable and clean, and Shaun was very welcoming and friendly providing us with the information we asked for on arrival. Coming to DC for the first time we were not clued in on neighborhoods, and Shaun's place is not extremely close to the center, or to a metro. I would not recommend staying here if you don't have a car.
