The host had accidentally double-booked the property, the first night, but was very helpful in arranging other lodgings at no additional cost to me.Overall, I enjoyed my stay. Walking distance to mom & pop shops, Target and Whole Foods. Easy bus access, and bit of a hike to Metro.In the future, the host may want to stock the unit with more cookware—at least one more pan and some cooking utensils.

Thank you so much for your kind words — it was truly a pleasure hosting you! You were such a wonderful guest and so easy to communicate with throughout your stay. I’m really glad you enjoyed the neighborhood and nearby conveniences. Regarding the cookware, thank you for the note! We’ve received great compliments in the past about our well-stocked kitchen, so it sounds like something may have been misplaced. I’ll be sure to double-check and make sure everything is perfectly set before each stay. Wishing you all the best and hope to host you again whenever you’re back in town! Warmly, Mar
