The unit was in great shape and we weren't lacking for anything. If there was one thing I would add to the kitchen, it would be a cutting board. Besides that, it was all we desired. We love DuPont Circle with its eats, drinks and easy access to so many other areas and sites. Also enjoyed access to the rooftop and its awesome view. For the price, it is a nice deal for DC. Now for the not so great: The windows are in pretty rough shape. Cedric had turned off the AC on a hot/humid day while we were out, but we had no way to cross ventilate the unit with no functioning screens. It was a sauna when we returned that evening. I’m an older fella so I kind of roll with the punches, but my daughter (an AirBnB aficionado) made some valid observations. We had booked the unit from Thursday.-Sunday (61 hours total) She thought it unprofessional and rude to be showing the unit to realtors while it was already booked. Even felt we should have been pro-rated for it. In fairness, Cedric did ask me if it was okay to show the unit and I didn’t object. The showings would be between 1pm and 3pm while we were out. Turns out the last was scheduled for 4:15pm, so we kept ourselves busy for an additional 90 minutes. The last thing is the check in: It wasn’t smooth. We sat on the front stoop for an hour waiting to get in while Kelly (Cedric’s agent) cleaned. It was nice of her to let us drop our bags at 2:30, but when 4:00 came, we should have been ready to occupy. And even then, she was waiting to hear back from Cedric to find out where the keys were. Like I said, I’m pretty flexible (it comes with age), but I’d be remiss if I didn’t convey those concerns.
All in all. Nice economical unit in an awesome locale. And would recommend it to lodgers in search of affordable DuPont Circle accommodations. And we had a memorable visit that coincided with the March for Science.
