David is a conscientious host and it shows in the presentation of the rental which match the photos and description. There was plenty of heat and hot water, perfect for a winter rental. The mattress was very comfortable, we slept like babies during our stay. He welcomes pets and we were grateful since we travelled with two small dogs. They too were comfortable and we felt safe leaving them while we celebrated the holidays with family. There was plenty of space for them to run, play and snooze. David made several suggestions for eateries, entertainment and getting around DC. Which could be useful for someone touring DC. He also provided a parking permit (necessary in DC) and for a holiday weekend we had no issues finding a space. My husband and I are older and have mobility issues, we struggled with the stairs leading into the rental which are steep and was the only concern we had.
