Wow!! After a one week stay, what can i say to describe my stay with Rita, other than, OUTSTANDING!! The space really exceeded expectations, lots of light, plenty of space to both work and relax, and for a basement, extremely well lit with lots of electrical and USB outlets. The walls are adorned with a worldly display of artwork, and the furnishings are clean and contemporary. The brick basement brings warmth with a variety of handwoven rugs which really made me feel at home as I watched my favorite evening programs on the 50 inch flatscreen television. Great Shower pressure, a full kitchen to meet my needs, and with its immediate proximity to the Eastern Market metro, I will undoubtedly return. Highly recommend!
