Stephen's apartment was perfect for our four-day stay in Washington, D.C. We were there during a heat wave, temperatures around 100, but we didn't even need to turn on the A/C. The bed was very comfortable, and he provided all kinds of extras to make our stay even more pleasant. A fully stocked refrigerator, a computer with Internet connection, all the conveniences of home. There is a bus stop a block from the apartment that goes to Lafayette Square near the White House, but we also found that cabs were easy to come by and relatively inexpensive. I hope he continues to rent out his apartment to other fortunate short-term visitors to the capitol.
