Mercedes’ basement apartment was the best choice we could have for our first 2-weeks in DC. It is a friendly neighborhood with immediate public transportation facilities (bus and taxi) and short walking distance to groceries, restaurants, shopping. The basement is perfectly described by the pictures, it is beautifully decorated, clean and the different areas are spacious. It also has excellent Wi-Fi access and cable TV.
As a host, Mercedes was wonderful, very responsive and willing to help us in what we needed. She greeted us with warm hospitality. Actually, no complaints... we truly recommend this place!
