Quiet rm in Bethesda near metro/NIH

Twin room in shared, half- basement eco-friendly apartment With lovely morning light and easy walking distance to red-line metro, Trader Joes, restaurants, coffee shops, etc, the room is ideal for travelers seeking an economical, convenient alternative to hotels. Filtered drinking and showering water. Coin laundry. Monthly guests are expected to keep their space clean (vacuum & non-toxic cleaning supplies provided). Please note this room is for long-term stays (>=30days) only. The space Although this room is quiet and has great light, it is not fancy. The layout of the apartment (a long hall with rooms off the sides) is conducive to privacy, and we are mindful of that. Likewise, the bathroom, though shared, is huge, with separate shelf space for everyone, and we keep it clean. Guest access Guests are welcome to use the kitchen to cook, store food, etc. There's plenty of space in the refrigerator and pantry. Also, we have an ironing board, hair dryer, clothes lines, etc. Make yourself at home. During your stay We have been here for 15 years and are always eager to help guests who have questions about the area, getting around, etc. Other things to note This is a rather old red brick garden style apartment building. Cozy and pretty, but guests should understand it's not a condo with modern amenities. We have Internet and WiFi, but no AC or TV. There's a fitness gym right across the street, numerous yoga studios nearby, and a bike trail about five minutes away that goes all the way into DC. The laundry facilities in the building (four washers, four dryers) are coin-operated. I provide laundry detergent, laundry booster for stains, fabric softener, etc. but guests are responsible for covering the cost of their laundry. Wash is generally about $2.75 and dryer $2.50.
