Staying at Edith and Mark's might be my favorite AirBnB experience so far. Their apartment was exactly what my husband and I were looking for, and we couldn't believe we found such a terrific place for the price! Their home is on a gorgeous Capitol Hill street that is very quite and safe. Edith grows flowers and veggies right outside, and no one touches them. The apartment is newly renovated so it's immaculate, but also spacious and airy. It gets lots of light despite being the bottom floor of a brownstone. The bed is extremely comfy, and my husband and I slept like babies both nights. The decor is modern and fresh. Edith has thought of everything, so the kitchen, bath, and rest are fully equipped, but she reiterated several times to let her know if we were missing anything.

Perhaps the best part of the stay was getting to know Edith and Mark. While they are extremely respectful of privacy, we found them so interesting and charming it felt as if we were visiting old friends. We will definitely be staying here whenever we come down to DC!
