Overall positive experience at this Airbnb and with the host. I'm going to mention a few things that were not mentioned by other reviews that we observed.
- The surrounding neighborhood to the north, south, and west of the property is not particularly safe. If your intentions are to stay at the residence and only head east towards the ballpark and to the metro stop, then you should be ok.
- The street the property is located on has a lot of activity going on. A few examples include soccer game crowd, baseball crowd, concert crowds - all of which are fine and an ok trade off for walkability. However, on our first night in the residence a fight broke out just in front of the property around 12:30am and went on for 15 mins or so, disrupting the sleep of guests inside.
- There is an expectation for guests to clean up after themselves. The guestbook stated that we were required to take out the trash, not leave any dishes in the sink, strip the beds and place towels in a designated basket. I know many other Airbnb hosts require the same but for the nightly rate charged and cleaning fee, I would have appreciated not having 5 guests spending an hour to prepare for cleaners as to not be charged an additional fee.
There were several things that we really appreciated about this property and stay.
- The ease of access to the ball park, nice restaurants, and metro were fantastic
- The host was easily accessible and responsive to any questions we had
- Small details such as a water bottle set out in each bedroom and welcome snacks
- Bed sheets and pillows were quite comfortable
- Parking pass and ease of finding a parking space on the street
