I went to washington dc to take a short course on investment arbitration in the Georgetown area. Since it's my first time in America and do not actually want to live alone, I decided to stay in a room in Ray's house with his family.
Ray's house is located in a very quiet, clean, and safe place. About 10minute walk to Georgetown Uni and M Street. It is about a 5 minute walk to the bus stop and supermarket. It looked exactly the same as it was advertised in airbnb.
The room was big and clean. The bed was comfortable. The heater was good, not too hot.
Ray is very helpful and acconmodating. He allowed me to use his address for my black friday sale purchases, showed me the best places to go in DC, helped me in carrying my luggages when I left. His family was very helpful too specially his mother in law who was always willing to help even though we speak different languages.
So if you are going to the Georgetown area in DC; looking for a quiet and safe place to stay; and do not mind living with the host family, I will definitely recommebd Ray's place. I hope to stay again if given the chance to return to DC.
