Mariah's cottage is located behind her home. We were able to enter through a back gate, which was wonderful because we often came in late, so we didn't feel like we would disturb the household. The cottage was clean and homey; perfect for a couple. It is located a block from Mississippi Ave., which is a delightful street with wonderful shops and restaurants. Mariah was kind and accommodating. She was also really quick with communication. We could not have been more pleased with our stay.
