This property has been outfitted with rooftop solar panels. • We are a waste-conscious property and endeavor to eschew modern consumerism. We believe imperfect things that are still perfectly functional should not contribute to the landfill (i.e. bleach spots, fading, and light wear and tear). When a linen is stained or damaged significantly, we donate towels and sheets to the local Humane Society and offer remaining items to a few local homeless individuals who help distribute them to those in their community who need them. As we replace with new linens, we choose organic cotton and other natural fibers whenever possible so they they naturally decompose/biodegrade or can be burned. • We pride ourselves on being active members of the local Buy Nothing and Freecycle communities, giving new life and a new home to like new and lightly used items. • We provide cotton towels in place of paper towels in an effort to reduce hospitality waste. Guests are welcomed to purchase or bring their own. • SaltSugar Fire Hospitality offers compost collection service! Please notify us in advance if you'd like to participate. • All ash and spent charcoal from the fire pits and grills is collected (silver pail) and used to amend out garden soil every year, along with compost from our compost collection partner, Compost Crew. • All toiletries, toilet paper, and consumables are selected with their ecological impact in mind. We use: • 100% Bamboo or recycled toilet paper in plastic-free packaging • Ginger Lily Farm Botanics low fragrance vegan, cruelty free, plant based Aloe Vera soaps and conditioner • Clearalif (or similar) zero waste laundry detergent sheets • Wool dryer balls lightly fragranced with essential oils in place of polyester fiber dryer sheets or silicone based fabric softeners. Things to Note: • We do not offer early checkin or luggage storage at this property. Please do not loiter at the property if you arrive early as this encourages vagrants in the area to do the same. There are several luggage storage services available in DC; let us know if you'd like more information • The MAX number of guests we can accommodate is 12 (13 with an infant or toddler) but, for your comfort, we recommend no more than 9 adults. • For guests with allergies or sensitivities, some of the duvets and pillows are down-filled and we use fragranced cleaners and air fresheners. Please notify us of your allergies in your booking message so we can set up the unit to accommodate your needs • As a waste conscious property, we provide cotton towels in place of paper towels in an effort to reduce hospitality waste.

We have fans in the second floor bedrooms for your comfort. • The neighbors are super friendly and like to unwind with music, a 6-pack, and a smoke in the evenings, particularly on weekends. They know you are a guest and will keep it down if you ask them politely. They're also long time residents of DC and know a ton about the neighborhood and city if you have any questions.
