This was our first AirBnB experience, and Dick made it very positive. He's a personable and welcoming host. Check-in was easy and communication was always prompt. The basement apartment is cozy and comfortable. It's located in a lovely, walkable neighborhood that's convenient to the National Mall and not too far from the Metro. Harris Teeter and Trader Joe's are 5 min away if you need to pick up groceries. We appreciated the ground coffee and SmarTrip Metro cards that were provided. We definitely plan to stay here again if the apartment is available when we come back to DC.
