Check in was great and prompt replies from the host-he even let us check in early as our flight arrived early. Unfortunately, we had to change the sheets in spare room due some stains and get new wash clothes due to stains. Kitchen utensil drawer was broken upon arrival and we had to pull it out and set it on the table for duration of trip. Dark in the rooms as there were lamps but no light bulbs in them. We mistakenly thought it was within walking distance of the mall and museums but it is an hour walk and we would walk to the Eastern Market metro which was a 30 minute walk and get to it that way. We had to let the water run in the tub in order to get hot water in the shower head(don't ask me why and maybe we just couldn't figure it out) so we did not have great water pressure.
