I stayed at Kathleen's beautiful home in SE Washington for ten weeks in the summer, and I cannot praise her highly enough. The bedroom and adjoining bathroom are clean, spacious, and a great value for summer interns. The location -- blocks from the Capitol and the Library of Congress, and near the lively Eastern Market -- is excellent, safe and quiet. And Kathleen herself is a wonderful host, who goes so far out of her way to make you feel at home in the city. Recommended without reservation!
