This was my first airbnb experience and I was very anxious.

Judy and her apartment far exceeded my expectations. She was available the moment I arrived, took me on a tour, showed me how everything worked, and reviewed the house rules, which were few and sensible.

The apartment is as pictured. It is in the above-ground basement of a large older home a block away from commercial amenities on Connecticut Ave and the metro.

Judy was unobtrusive but invited me upstairs a couple of times just to talk and be sure I was satisfied.
