I would have preferred being alerted ahead of time to the fact that the main hosts wouldn’t be there, and someone else would be staying at the apartment. Otherwise the communication was great. Check in instructions were clear. The room isn’t super clean, but it’s well furnished, with some nice touches. The bed is super comfy. You’re paying for the location, so the neighborhood is understandably noisy. Tons of places are within easy walking distance. It’s close to Adams Morgan. A fair deal for the price.
