My son and I enjoyed a great stay at Chris' place in Columbia Heights. It was easy to come and go, the apartment was comfortable and quiet, and Chris was especially warm and friendly. We were able to easily walk to the subway stop nearby and get to The Mall within 15 minutes, when our timing synched with the train schedule. With his apiary, eco-friendly B&B, and massive vinyl collection, Chris is a cool guy. The free parking on the street, thanks to a pre-arranged permit by Chris, was invaluable.
