my mom and i spent our last three nights at emily's and sam's thoughtfully furnished, quietly located basement apartment. i particularily liked its cute bathroom which is great for singing. one downside for us was the air conditioner, as we are noise and air sensitive. we loved how close to park and metro we lived. the neighborhood offers a variety of nice cafés; we especially liked blessings, located only a block away. emily and sam are delightful hosts, caring, helpful, spot on! merci!
