Nate is such a friendly and helpful host! However, this basement is quite different from the photos. Because we got there right after the house keeper cleaned the room, the smell of the freshener was suffocating. Since it is a basement, it was impossible to get rid of the smell. Though the basement is located in a populated area, the neighborhood looks a little bit rough on the east side. Later that night, when I attempted to use the oven, the fire alarm went off, but luckily Nate helped just in time. The fire alarms here were really sensitive. Maybe the pricing of Airbnb in DC is just like this, but I was expecting more from this price.
