The location was great, loved being close to the Metro & Eastern Market. Erica was very helpful before our trip with suggestions on places to eat and visit. Knowledgeable and quick to respond!

We did have a bit of a rough start getting in though and came in to a dirty apartment. Laundry and trash were full, no sheets on the beds as they were all dirty. We had to wash a set to use them. We arrived after 10:30pm after a long day of traveling so we were all exhausted and ready for bed but had to wait up until the sheets were washed to go to bed. The mattresses and pillows were pretty stained, as were sheets and bedding. One bedroom smelled pretty strongly of a bad odor. She did come the next day and grab the trash and cleaned up the remaining laundry, after I informed her that the apartment was left dirty, which was helpful.

A small note about the lockbox on the outside – it's tricky and jams, we tried between all of us to get it open and had a very difficult time. We called our host for help and though she stayed on the phone with us while we tried to get it opened, she expressed that she would be pretty "frustrated" if she had to come and help us. Again, we were all tired, standing with luggage outside after 11 p.m. in a place we were unfamiliar with so we were pretty frustrated on our end as well.

The photos of the layout were precise as was the outside. We felt safe and that's most important. I'm sure it'd be fine for a quick business trip. We were trying to sell our parents on the fun and experience of Airbnb and unfortunately they weren't quite on-board.
