The host was approachable and informative. Home was just as listed. Plenty of room for 7 adult sized humans. The neighborhood itself is nice as was the home. The neighborhood is well kept row houses. A decent walk to the metro station about a half mile. Bus stop is much closer. There is a corner store a quarter of a mile from the houses which you have to walk by to get to the metro which clear has some drug use happening outside of it. We never felt unsafe. The one issue we had is the common area did not have a enough couch space for all seven of us. So it was a struggle to have a "gathering area" Plenty of seating for meals.

Lovely stay in DC

We had a great time at this property! It was clean, comfortable, and within walking distance of many good restaurants. The kitchen was well-equipped and even had a few spices, coffee, etc. for use. Bonus: LOTS of bathrooms (4.5), so we never had to fight over them. Check in and check out were easy.— I definitely didn’t feel that we were asked to do too much. The hosts were responsive and kind. I’d highly recommend this rental for anyone looking to stay in the area.

Comfortable DC Home

Check in was a tiny bit confusing because this address has an A unit and a B unit and they both have digital code locks on the door, but the unit is the A unit up the stairs to the front door.The home has plenty of room and plenty of bathrooms for a medium sized group, and was clean and well-stocked with dishes and glasses.The host was very attentive making sure everything was going alright.The property is a little bit of a walk from the nearest metro station but not a difficult walk, and we appreciated the exercise.Overall lovely experience, would stay at this home again if I were to find myself in DC.

Place was nice and clean except one of the upstairs bathrooms swelled of urine. The coffee was stale and the choices were terrible. Thanks for the ice though. The towels were adequate but not enough wash rags. Beds were comfortable but my brother needed a flatter pillow.also, it would be nice to have a full length mirror somewhere in the house
