I had not stayed in someone's home in a private room, prior to this AirBnb. It was delightful! The home was intimate and uniquely decorated. Yet there were all the touches of being a guest: a minifridge, a microwave, a Keurig with tons of apple cider K-cups that my daughter and I fell in love with. We were the only guests at the time, so it wasn't a problem using the shared bathroom. I had been needlessly worried about parking; there was a private parking spot. The neighborhood was quiet and close to the heart of Chevy Chase.
I am looking forward to visiting again but staying in a differently decorated room!
