Great place! Everything was as advertised, and our host (Linden) was very communicative both before the trip and after we arrived. A detailed document was provided via email after our booking which was very helpful - full of information about the room, logistics, things to do, and the DC-area in general.

Here is synopsis of what you need to know:
- Host: very responsive to questions, helpful and welcoming.
- Room: private entrance, clean, well appointed (although a bit small). Has a mini fridge, sink and microwave! Nicely decorated.
-Bed: queen-sized, very comfortable (felt like it was brand new).
-Neighborhood: close to DC (15 min drive). Seemed safe, middle-class/commuter area. Plenty of options a few blocks away for food, nightlife on H Street.

The suite has a basement-level private entrance and is "cozy" as advertised. It's small, but you can tell the hosts put in a lot of thought and effort into the layout. Every bit of space has been maximized and renovated with the right appliances. Quality choices were made. There is a whisper-quiet air conditioner over the bed, a tiny rectangular sink to fit the bathroom layout, a stand-up shower stall, a little microwave hidden in the kitchen cabinet, a Keurig machine, etc. Everything was tastefully arranged and good quality.

If you are very tall or wide it may be cumbersome, but if you are used to smaller spaces (if you're European or a city dweller) you'll be able to adapt. The bathroom is very narrow. The room ceilings are about 7 feet tall and there is one beam that is about 6'5" at it's lowest point. If you can handle that, you'll be fine.

I'm actually glad they chose to put in a queen-sized bed. It makes the room a little smaller, but is well worth it! A good night's sleep is what you want on vacation, so the bed is critical. There is also a multi-outlet extension strip to plug in all your devices next to the bed. Much needed for cell phones, camera charging, tablets, etc.

All-in-all, you're getting a totally private suite with a lot of amenities, albeit in a tight space. The host is great, the location is excellent. Parking is on the street, and Linen can get you a permit if you tell her in advance. I never had to park more than 1/2 a block away. The area seemed safe, even at night (after 1am).

I would gladly recommend staying here and Linden was an excellent host.
