I had a great experience with Patrick and Rob's apartment last week. For starters, the communication was great. Knowing I was flying into DCA they provided full details on how to get to their place by Metro (which is easy, and just a 3 or 4 block walk).

The keyless entry made getting into the apartment completely hassle-free (Airbnb, this could be a worthwhile investment to share the cost of installing these... it makes for a much better experience).

The apartment was immaculate and they had the heat on for me to make sure I quickly defrosted from the sub-zero temps outside.

The location was perfect for me, walking distance to good food and drink, and a quick jaunt on the Metro to everywhere I needed to be.

I felt right at home. And certainly better than a hotel. I will certainly be staying here on future visits.

Thanks Patrick and Rob!
