My boyfriend and I had an absolutely lovely stay at this location. The check-in process was smooth and understandable. While we had an issue understanding the luggage storage before our check-in time, the hosts quickly resolved our worries over Airbnb messaging. The hosts always had a helpful response to our questions within an hour or less before and throughout our stay.
The Canopy Room appears exactly how it does in the pictures, and was exceptionally clean. There was plenty of toiletries (body wash, shampoo/conditioner, lotion, etc.) available that lasted throughout our 6-day stay. The mattress was firm and comfortable after walking around Washington D.C. all day. It was warm in the winter, and had an additional space heater in the room on chilly nights. The bed is positioned quite high up, but the Airbnb has a wooden step-stool if you're on the shorter side (like me!).
You could hear the noises of guests in other rooms, but it was minimal and expected when staying in a historic hotel inn such as this one. It was wonderful to have access to a washer and dryer. The laundry machines were not as easy to use because of linens still needing folding, or other guests using it, but it was great to have the option to wash our clothes when it opened up during the week.
The location of the Historic Dupont Circle Inn is one of its biggest appeals. The metro is less than a three minute walk away. The metro follows the Red-Line, which takes you directly to Metro Center or Gallery Place, which connect you to all the other lines. Metro-fares are cheap, and an easy way to navigate the greater D.C. area. This Airbnb is also surrounded by diverse and delicious food options for every meal, in a variety of price ranges. And, a CVS is located less than a five minute walk away. We never felt unsafe walking around in the evenings, though we did not go out beyond 11pm.
Overall, we had a fantastic experience in the Canopy Room, and would highly recommend it for first-time visitors to the Washington D.C. area!
