Family of 6 visiting Washington, DC for the 1st time. To keep this review short, our stay was cut short due to a gas leak by 2 days and we had to exit Karl’s property in the middle of the night. Karl’s property managers might not be the best as the inside of this property was beyond ran down, and the images on the listing are very deceiving. I’ve never wrote a negative review on Airbnb but I’d feel bad if another family experienced what my family did on their vacation. The area is extremely loud, construction is very much in action, it’s in close proximity of a lot of bus stops and the rail, but it didn’t seem to be the safest of areas. Your stay will start with trying to locate parking, which isn’t easy. Next you will have to jump over a hole in the front entrance area to the front door, very unsafe. After you enter, you will notice that the images for the listing were taken a very long time ago and everything is very much ran down and just a gross feeling in general. There is only 1 TV so make sure if you have kids, they have their phones and tablets. Upon going upstairs you will realize it doesn’t cool down well and is sticky hot through the night while you sleep. Would recommend you bring your own fans to stay cool upstairs while sleeping. Two rooms are only big enough for kids to sleep in if more than 1 person is in the room. The beds in all rooms are very uncomfortable and almost painful to sleep on. While using the upstairs bathroom the electric must be messed up cause the lights will flicker the entire time they are on. The master bedroom did include an Alexa, but it wasn’t functional during my stay. At night when trying to turn the lights out in the bedrooms, the remote controlled 2 rooms so we couldn’t turn off our lights without our kids rooms lights turning off too. Make sure you wear shoes at all times in the house as multiple people got splinters in their feet. Our family never went out in the back shared area, but it looked extremely scary from the door, so we decided not to partake in it. Post arriving to Karls property, he was very short communicating with us, when he told us about exiting his property, it was short responses with little to no context or concern for our safety. By far the worst AirBnB experience. This property held a 4.7 rating which my family felt safe booking, but the reviews just don’t match what we experienced.
