This is a cozy, quiet, immaculate basement apartment in the host’s home. We parked right in front of the house every night. The mattress was so comfy with the softest sheets ever. The hosts gave much attention to detail in many things… like coffee for the pot, flavored creamer in the fridge, a Brita water pitcher, pizza bagel bites in the freezer, cocoa, tea, chocolates, and Visitors Guides & maps!
My husband and I were not planning a second honeymoon, but this turned into one, influenced by the romantic ambiance of the two-person hot tub, dual shower heads, votive lights, scented candles, and an electric fireplace! 😉😍
There are steps and pavers enroute to the apt entrance at the back of the house, which could be awkward for us old folks, but there are sturdy handrails, rubber mats, and motion-detected security lights along the whole path so we had no problem. (Watch your head going down the stairs into the apt if you are tall though!) There’s no thermostat to control the AC but somehow the room temp was perfect for us, day and night. There’s a box fan but we didn’t need it. Baseboard heaters also in every room. Plenty of bright lighting and convenient electric outlets for chargers, curling iron, etc. Damont provided instructions for everything, but of course was available for any questions. (But the only question we had to ask him was, “Can we extend our stay?!”) This was a short trip to DC for us but we will absolutely stay here again if we come back.
