What a wonderful home and host!
Let’s start with location: you cannot beat it. It’s walking distance to Eastern Market, 8th Street, and the Navy Yard area.
Next, the home: a massive amount of space with stunning artwork and items from Amy’s travels make this home a work of art itself. We (3 adults and a pup) stayed for 2 weeks and we felt right at home, had plenty of space to spread out, all had our own space to work, and never wanted for a thing — including parking, which was a gated lot right behind her home that always had a space available for us right outside her back patio (hello, unheard of convenience!).
Finally, Amy: What a lovely, communicative, and honest host. When I had a bit of cold feet a few days before, Amy went above and beyond to make sure I knew exactly what I was walking into and that if I wasn’t comfortable, she was willing to cancel. She was honest and fair, and I am so, so glad we went through with staying in her home. From the moment we arrived until the moment we locked up this morning, we felt grateful to have found such wonderful accommodations.
We plan to be back. Amy and her home have us looking forward to an extended stay to visit family and enjoy the area at least on an annual basis.
