Awesome place near downtown DC, perfect for two, or two couples.
The property was just what we were looking for. It was close to the Metro, which gave easy access to all of Washington DC. The neighborhood had several good restaurants that were within a couple of minutes walk.

Hi ND, We're happy the location suited your needs! It was a pleasure to host you and we hope to have another opportunity to welcome you back in the future.
This property was better than the pictures. Great space full of everything you need. They provide really great products to use, comfortable bed, 1.5 baths was great. Two people fit very comfortably here. The area is nice, with plenty to eat and really within walking distance to many things. Parking was a little tricky but you can figure it out. The host company is really great with communication.

Hi Sarah, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, we're happy you had a great stay overall! It was lovely to host you and we hope to have a future opportunity to welcome you back.
Solid, well kept garden level apartment. The kitchen and shower are nicely designed for the space. The only maintenance note I have is the condition of the gate /fence out front, which does not give the best first impression. The neighborhood is fine, a 10 min walk to the metro.

The apartment was fine. The couch was NOT comfortable at all and there was only one other chair to sit in. The listing made it sounds like it was in a good part of town, not even close.

Hi Julie, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand individual preference varies, our one bedroom home can comfortably fit four guests. In addition to the bed, we have a 2 seat sofa which turns into a bed, along with an accent chair and a dining table with 4 chairs. The location is highly sought by locals and is a 10 minute walk to the desired neighborhoods of Shaw and the U Street Corridor. Overall, it was a pleasure to host you and we hope you enjoyed your time in the city overall.
