I can honestly say that this was THE BEST airbnb experience I've ever had. I arrived completely new to the city and not knowing anyone in DC, and when I left I'd made a bunch of new best friends, Bryan and Chris chief among them.

The description provided is spot on; the house itself is incredibly warm and welcoming (like its hosts); and the location couldn't be better if you need to access downtown (it's just a few metro stops away, with good bus connections too - hell, you can walk it in 20 minutes!).

This room has plenty of storage space, a comfortable bed, and comes with it's own bathroom incl. shower. There is, admittedly, a fairly small window that lets in limited light, but this can easily be a positive if you aren't a fan of blazing sunlight first thing in the morning.

Being a house with several rooms, expect to meet a veritable cornucopia of fascinating guests. Everyone else that stays is professional and screened by the hosts before being accepted; I met White House and Congress interns and international medical professionals for instance...all of which were a delight and with whom I made quick and lasting friendships. The house is a social hub: if you are up for meeting interesting and exciting people then this is the place for you. That said, when I needed time to myself, everyone was more than accommodating and completely respected my space.

Naturally, things in the house will sometimes need fixing...and I can assure you that Bryan and Chris were very quick to do so when needed (which wasn't often). They are also the perfect guides for the city; Bryan was at the house more often than Chris during my stay, and was every-ready to dispense his voluminous DC knowledge to help me find my way around.

In summary this is THE place to stay in DC if you want to feel welcome, comfortable, and part of the DC family; whether it be for three days or - like me - for three months.

So yeah: stay here, and forget the rest!
