What a fantastic stay! We were personally greeted by Cathy right when we pulled up. A parking space is available, but be aware those with big trucks and SUVs that it is tight. Free parking is a huge bonus in downtown DC though! The apartment has two entrances and is exactly as pictured. Loved having a bedroom where I could go to sleep while my husband and son stayed up and watched TV (cable and Netflix is available)--big TV. The king bed was super comfortable. I have a Tempurpedic at home and the bed in this apartment felt just as good. My son slept on the air mattress and was very happy. We did not use the pull out sofa. Lots of linens, pillows, and blankets available--all very clean. A/C is controlled by Cathy and Bruce upstairs in their home, but my husband who seems to be hot blooded had zero complaints.
The kitchen was well stocked with pots/pans and dishes. I brought a crock pot which was perfect after a long day of touring. The kitchen was clean and had the extras I forgot like paper towels. Cathy and Bruce had coffee, tea, beer, soda, and wine. There were snacks and homemade treats. They really care about your stay at there home.
There is a full-size washer and dryer with detergent and fabric softener sheets. I did use them. The bathroom was super clean and supplied with any extras you might have forgotten like Tylenol, hair spray, shaving cream, etc. A huge plus for me--Super Hot Water. Water pressure was great.
The backyard was open to us, but we did not use since it was so hot. There is a BBQ and bikes to use also.
The house is walking distance to the Capitol, but I am lazy and we took Lyft rides to all the attractions. Lyft rides are the way to go--took between 1-3 minutes to arrive at the house and I think they are very inexpensive. I did walk to one of the Ben's Chili Bowl locations which is a must do on my Washington DC bucket list. The neighborhood is very safe to walk and quiet. No noise was heard throughout the night.
Overall, this is just a perfect place to have a visit to Washington DC. Cathy and Bruce are top notch hosts. They set the standard for Airbnb's very high.
