Kathleen's guest house is situated in a truly stunning house. The shared lounge, dining room and kitchen are on the ground floor and the individual bedrooms are upstairs. I have a very spacious, well furnished room with a very comfortable bed. It had a fridge and a coffee maker which was all very useful. Personally, I would have loved to have a desk, but I like to have a desk anywhere! The bathroom was shared with two other lodgers but that was absolutely fine, it was clean and no space issues. It was nice to meet the other guests. The location was perfect for me, I could walk to places or hop on the bus. I would really recommend the Chicago smartpass public transport app as it's so easy to use and then you are fully flexible. I felt safer on the bus than on the tube but I guess that's preference. I had a lovely time in Washington and would def stay here again if I was going to come back. Kathleen was a lovely host and always very responsive on the app.
