Kent is an excellent host!
He is readily available over the phone to answer any questions and/or address any issues that may arise. His level of communication when we needed him was stellar. He did not feel the need to overly communicate with us. His response time was impeccable.
We were lucky enough to check in early upon our arrival. When the housekeeper was finished he was more than happy to let us in. The English basement was very clean. We happened to arrive on a few, very hot days for DC (100 degree "feel like" temps) The window air conditioner and the portable a/c were more than cool enough to handle the heat and humidity.
The beds in both rooms were outfitted with white down comforters and very soft blankets and sheets. The pullout couch was very comfortable without having to pull it out. A nice cool sheet over top to sleep on and it was perfect for my back.
The kitchen provided coffee, sugar, salt, pepper, olive oil, a few seasonings, coffee filters, saran wrap, leftover pasta, plastic silverware to grab and go...etc. lots of little extras that you dont want to have to provide yourself.
The bathroom has double sinks. A very private toilet room with a door to close. There is a standup shower with soap, body wash, and shampoo. A hairdryer and curling iron were provided. There were also plenty of cleaning products just in case.
The English basement on 11th St was just perfect for our needs!! And the price was spot on! I will definitely be staying here again...
