Silas' place was very clean and exactly as pictured. Silas was incredibly responsive and flexible, which was much appreciated when our flight was delayed and we missed our connection. He was very patient in waiting for us to know what our new arrival time would be, which helped make a stressful situation better. We loved the area and how close it is to the metro, making it so easy to get around. All in all, a great place to stay and a great host! I will say that Silas was gone for the whole week we were there, and asked us to water his plants. This was no problem for us at all, but if that is something that would bother you, then this is a heads up on that (but the plants are really pretty!).
