Brian's place was very comfortable and charming. Neighborhood is in transition (looks like people moving into this area, buying the homes, and renovating to a more upscale area) and the neighbors we met were all friendly. It is a short walk (1 block) to the H Street trolley stop we used for the free trolley that takes you to Union Station where you can get the Metro to anywhere in the city. There are many restaurants along H Street with varied menus that are in easy walking distance or a short trolley ride. Full kitchen in Brain's place and a Whole Foods and a Giant grocery stores on H Street. Brian was very responsive to any questions/needs we had and responded immediately. We were very pleased to stay here and can highly recommend it.
