Nice quiet and safe neighbourhood. Near to Alexandria Old Town where there are free playgrounds open to the public and nice Whole Food market (super-market with all day free wifi and nice quiet rest corner where you can study or have good good). Alexandria has a train station from which you can take a train to Washington quickly. Good convenience place if you want to live near Washington DC and not pay a high price. I parked my rental car in the private landed estate next to Alexandria Old Town for free when i went over to Old Town for my day tour. You can probably park there and take the train to DC.

Ample parking space opposite the homestay and it was just 15 to 20mins drive from Niagara falls. Love the beautiful decorations in the house. More importantly is the warm and friendly hosts Tiffany and Mark who offered me a number of suggestions on places to visit. Was grateful that i managed to find a place to exchange currency with their advise. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and i will recommend my friends to Tiffany's place if they want to visit the Niagara falls.
