Asante Sana (Swahili for "Thank you very much") is a lovely guest lodging in a restored Washington, DC Victorian townhouse. The short walk to the Columbia Heights metro station is via two blocks of classic renovated row houses along tree-lined streets. A supermarket and restaurants are also just a couple of blocks away. We stayed on the second floor in... More

Columbia Heights is a great area full of beautiful historic buildings, and the metro is a 5 minute walk away from this place. We stayed in the DuBois room and it was fantastic. Memory foam mattress, lots of natural light, and a nice bathroom. I loved staying in a residential area and getting to see the non-touristy side of D.C.... More

We have stayed in this guest quarters twice now, both times in the Lighthouse Suite. It is a wonderful, convenient place to stay to visit family in Mt. Pleasant. We have not had the pleasure of meeting the owners yet, but that is okay. Our room was cleaned once while we were here--everything was fresh and clean on our arrival... More

We stayed here in the beginning of October, 2011 in the DuBois room. We had a wonderful stay. They are upfront that this isn't a Bed and Breakfast, but a Bed and Basket. It's nice if you want a relaxing, comfortable place to stay and want to pack/make your own food. There's a grocery store nearby and a lot of... More

I booked a room in Asante Sana for myself in June for the CBC. I stayed here last year and was quite satisfied. A friend wanted to stay at the same place so I went online to book another room. I happened to go into the reviews to see the latest. When I saw the review from Tom468, I was... More

If you are going to D.C. on vacation don’t even consider Asante Sana, by no way is it a Bed and Breakfast…IT IS A ROOMING HOUSE NO MORE NO LESS!!!! The photos posted on the site by no means portray correctly what you will actually see once you arrive. When arriving you could not see the address on the house,... More

We made reservations for 2 separate sets of days for a trip to DC to visit our son, with a break in the middle to go sightseeing in Virginia. We had reserved the Americas Quarter room. When we arrived, we found locked door and no answer to the doorbell. We called the phone number and also no answer, so left... More

Very comfortable room, low cost for expensive WDC; although my room had a bathroom downstairs and down the hall, it was fine for me. Lovely people running the place. Location is good - two blocks from metro station, and then 15 minutes into the centre of the city. Needs an instruction sheet clearly spelling out things like wifi password, how... More

My husband and I wanted a weekend get away. We just wanted to relax and enjoy the sites of DC. Didn't want to spend a lot of money. I saw this B &B on the web and decided to give it a try. The room rates fit within our budget. We were pleasantly surprised. We loved this place. Our room... More
