Maria is very friendly, and quick to reply. The location is a good proximity to the sites in Washington, D.C. Marvelous meals are a quick walk away (we were very grateful for the list of local recommended restaurants provided by Maria!!) and in good weather, other sites in D.C. would be walk-able, too! My son really loved the stylish decor and great TV. The location has a small indoor parking space, but it is also easy to walk to the street and request speedy Uber/Lyft service, if need be. Our family had a great stay, and we were especially grateful for a selection of food items in the kitchen. This made our quick mornings manageable and were a life-saver!
