I traveled to DC for a turnaround work trip. These are always hard physically as the night before is typically sleepless due to the early AM departure times. So when I landed, I texted Cory in the hopes that I could drop off my things. From the very first communications Cory was super responsive, kind and accommodating. When I arrived, not only is the front of the house welcoming and cheery - with hanging plants and painted bannisters, Cory was very welcoming - respectful of your needing space to rest, do remote work, or prep for the next day and also very engaging and easy to chat with about any number of compelling topics. The basement has everything you need, including a desk space and a seating area in case you want to read or wind down at the end of the day but aren't ready for bed. You have a minfridge, microwave and fresh ground coffee. I will try to book with Cory anytime I travel to DC for work or for fun. P.S. - the neighborhood, near Gallaudet University, has A LOT of great food/drink options within 10-15min walking distance.
