My friend and I felt at-home immediately at Heather's home thanks to her relaxed welcome. We happily used her kitchen, dining, living room to cozy up, sat at the pool side for breakfast and admired her art collections. We loved going to the nearby Eastern market so much that we went back again and again for lunch and coffee time as well as restaurants on the 8th street. We easily walked to the Capital, metro station and museums. We'd definitely stay again at her beautiful home, a secret garden! As an animal lover myself, it was a bonus to meet her sweet and gentle pets too! Thanks for everything, Heather.
