We thought Jarred's place was a really great value and would recommend it to anyone. We took the Metro line into DC (the mall area) several times, and it was a 15-minute walk from the unit. Jarred suggested driving to the stop and parking all day for $5, which was a great suggestion, but we decided to hoof it. The unit was in a residential neighborhood that was very quiet. The parking spot inside a gated area was great. Yes, it was a basement unit, which meant no natural light and a small, weirdly shaped bathroom (but the shower was huge and most excellent), but that fact was clearly advertised, so we knew what to expect. The unit was nicely decorated, and the bed was comfy with great sheets. There was a small issue with the HVAC not working (these things happen with a house and there was no way to predict it), but Jarred immediately called a repair person, and he kept us updated the entire time. The way he handled it was professional and speedy, and it speaks to his seriousness as a host. Jarred also recommended a great coffee place nearby--Zeke's--and we went there every day. All in all, an excellent stay that we would recommend to anyone.
