I found a nice, charming and quiet place to lie my head. But more importantly, I also met Kathleen, such a dynamic, warm and welcoming host. This was my first time staying in a private room. I've always done "entire place" or a hotel. I've always been unsure about sharing common space in someone's home. You have zero to worry about, in fact you want to stay at a place where the host is is kind, welcoming and passionate , Kathy's house is the place. Kathy made me feel like an extended family member. Place is near Capitol Hill, Library of Congress, Supreme Court of the United States. Like a 8 min walk to Capitol South Metro (Silver, Blue Orange Line) or under a mile to Union Station (Red Line, AMTRAK, MARC trains). I'll be staying here for my trips to DC in the future.
