Maureen and family were warm and welcoming hosts. Maureen was wonderful and easy to communicate with and made staying at her home a breeze. The house is in a great quiet neighborhood that is steps away from some restaurants, shops and a grocery store. It is not in the heart of the city but an easy 15-minute walk to the red line metro, which can get you where you want to go. By the metro stop there are even more restaurants and high end shopping as well as a movie theater. The room is quaint with a comfortable bed and a nice private bathroom. Also in the room is just about anything you may need including a refrigerator and coffee maker with coffee and snacks. Also provided are plenty soft towels and essential toiletries. I would definitely recommend staying with Maureen and her family.
