This was our first Airbnb experience and I have to say I was super nervous. I get nervous about hotels as well, but this is a little different so I didn’t know what to expect at all.
First of all Alison was very good with communication. She responded to all of my potential annoying questions very quickly and with thorough responses.
The apartment was located in a very very cute and safe part of town and also very close to tourist destinations and restaurants. We were able to walk to most places, even with two kids (who are 7 and 9). It was a very clean and comfortable, or homey, apartment. Alison and her family live above the apartment but they were very quiet and respectful.
The bed was comfortable and the kids enjoyed the couch bed. The bathroom was clean and she even had some great smelling shampoo, conditioner, and body wash available. Seriously I loved the smell of these and I kind of want some for myself. Haha.
The kitchen we didn’t use much aside from the Keurig and bowls for the kids cereal. She had k-cups available but I only saw dark roast and I’m picky so I grabbed some light roast k-cups when we went to Trader Joe’s (which we were also able to walk to!).
All in all it was an amazing first Airbnb experience. If we find ourselves in DC again I’d absolutely book with Alison.
