Type: Downstairs apt in a 2 family home in the outskirts of D.C. (Southeast quadrant)
PROS: well maintained and attractive apartment with upscale appliances and finishes, helpful and available hosts, close proximity to public transportation, surprisingly quiet and light-filled for a downstairs apt, easiest check in and check out of any airbnb I have visited; beautiful backyard with grill; family (child) friendly
Cons: wifi and cell service are spotty; back bedroom can feel stuffy at night; both front entrance and backyard are accessed via stairs which may be difficult for children and elderly; area is too far to major attractions/sites for most people to feel comfortable walking
Overall: An amazing vacation apt for small groups or families who are willing to stay a little outside downtown D.C.
