This is a very affordable, very clean room in a quiet D.C. neighborhood. Olena responds quickly to messages and is extremely warm and welcoming. While this location was super convenient for me, people should know that there is nearby bus service, but that it is not close to a Metro stop. You can find food and coffee only a 5-10 minute walk away. As other reviewers have shared, the bed is extremely hard. The good news is that at this great price you get a private bathroom. The awkward news is that I assume due to very old plumbing, the host asks that no toilet paper go into the toilet and is instead to be thrown into a regular plastic wastebasket. I would encourage her to get a medical waste container for sanitary disposal and perhaps a piece of bed foam for the bed. All that said, Olena is clear in her listing about what is provided and what the rules are. If you are clear about what you need and what you are getting, this is a very good value.
