Firstly Ross is a wonderful host - he is very friendly and communicated with us very well even before we arrived, letting us know he was looking forward to our visit and giving us instructions on how to get to the apartment if he was not home although we ended up being greeted by Ross in person. He also warned us about incremental bad weather approaching when we were late returning one night.
We were pleasantly surprised by the little extra items he provided for our convenience including continental breakfast and shampoo, moisturizer and other items in the bathroom.
We loved the basement apartment- it was very modern and clean with a splash of old charm and very comfortable. The king size bed was fantastic with a great mattress and lovely high quality linens and soft plump pillows. Furniture over all very comfortable and we had everything we needed including a washer and dryer . Apartment quiet except when Ross and his partner move around upstairs but that was usually only in the morning and was not a problem. Could hear his 3 dogs darting across the floor most mornings but we actually enjoyed it!. Otherwise very quiet apartment and Ross keeps the air conditioner at 72 degrees so the apartment was always comfortable but Ross is happy to ad just the temperature if you request. Enjoyed happy hour on their porch which they are very happy to share.
The apartment is located within easy walking distance to the Metro and I even walked the pleasant 40 minute walk through residential streets/town to the White House. Shopping and restaurants also within walking distance and we felt safe walking around the neighborhood. We took the MARC train from Baltimore airport then a short 15 minute UBER ride to and from the apartment and other days used the Metro or UBER to get around DC.
Overall we had a fabulous time and we felt Ross was like family. I would definitely recommend this Airbnb.
Thank you.
