We enjoyed our stay in Bloomingdale, and David’s space is very comfortable and nicely designed. If you’re visiting Washington to be a tourist, save your feet and use an Uber to make the short hop down to the historic monuments. We rode the Metro a couple of days, and definitely got our steps in! If you do use the Shaw-Howard Metro station, there’s a great breakfast place next door called Mason Dixie Biscuit Company. If you like pizza, Bacio is very nearby and delicious, and if you’re looking for something special, enjoy a terrific meal at The Red Hen.
