Chris and Beverly were great hosts. Their home is absolutely perfect for working professionals or small families; it's clean and modern, walking distance to shopping / eateries, and on a quiet tree lined street. Reasons I'd stay here again or highly recommend booking: Check-in / check-out: They proactively confirmed our check-in and ensured we had received all details the day before we arrived. We arrived late into the night with no issues given the convenient lockbox approach they employ. When we entered, we were pleased to find a handwritten note from Chris and Bev outlining WiFi details / passwords and that the kitchen was stocked with coffee, tea, and biscuits to help get us through our first morning - so thoughtful! Check-out was equally pleasant; we even made a last minute request to checkout a bit later and they generously allowed it. Location: Their attached two story home is a 2 minute walk from upper Wisconsin avenue (off of Q). Since it's also only minutes from busy shopping areas on M and Wisconsin, we had no issues with getting cabs or Uber / Lyft to pick us up at all hours of the day (within 5 minutes always), walking, or grabbing the DWE. The Place: There are so many wonderful things to say about this place. - Firstly, its immaculate. There is not a single item that could be remarked as old or unclean. Every piece of furniture, sheet, towel, and surface was spotless! - Secondly, it's well laid out and sun ridden. You walk into a kitchen with a 3 stool counter seating; just past it, you can find a set of stairs to the second floor. Beyond the stairs lies a small dining and living space with a half bathroom and fire place that looks out over a finished stone patio. The first floor is perfect to navigate and separate yourself for some privacy. When you head upstairs, you find a landing space lit by skylight and two bedrooms nestled on either end. In general, there is a lot of natural light that streamed through every inch of the house given the half shuttered windows. There are also ceiling lights or lamps in every corner of the house that you can easily find for access. - Finally, the essentials are everywhere. Here are some of the items we found useful to have at our fingertips (which is not always the case with AirBnBs): full fridge, coffee maker, cutlery, shoe mats, coat hooks, outlets (galore), hand soap, dish washing soap, wine opener, fireplace instructions, tv, internet, unlocked thermostat, ceiling fans, large closets, dressers, dressing mirrors, hangers, washer / dryer, extra linens, blankets, shampoo / conditioner, hair dryer. The only drawbacks were preferential rather than necessities; for example: - the beds were firm (but high quality) - the windows were half shuttered (easily fixed with blinds or perfect if you're not shy) - there were no hand towel hooks (again, an easy fix) - limited tv stations (but DC is...
