This is a great base for a DC vacation! We had lots of room for 2 adults and 4 teens, the place is well-appointed and comfy, remarkably quiet, and Ken and Linda were welcoming and added nice touches for our stay. Offstreet parking option was great since we drove. Shaw is a nice neighborhood with easy access to grocery, coffee shops, restaurants nearby, and plenty of ride-, bike-, and scooter- share options nearby if metro is not your cup of tea.
