Kelly was a fantastic host. She was proactive in communicating details to us before our arrival, and messaged us multiple times during our 1-week stay to make sure everything was going ok. The check-in process was easy, the place was clean and tidy for the most part, and there were plenty of extra pillows, blankets, paper towels, and other necessities on hand. The location was also great for our purposes: close to the Yellow line, close to the Giant (grocery), and close to fun bars and restaurants in Columbia Heights. I have only two criticisms, neither of which were serious enough to ruin our stay. First, the place is a garden unit (below ground) and was a little damp and humid. Luckily there is a humidifier in the living room, which we turned on and this did help. Second, the family on the floor above has several small children who liked to wake up before 7am and run around. This did wake us up on the occasions when we were sleeping later... the noise was hard to ignore. Assuming they are permanent residents, and not other Airbnb-ers, then others might also have this problem. I assume it will be less of an issue as the kids get older ;)
But for my group of 5 people in our 20s and 30s spending a week in DC with family, this was a great location, a nice unit, and a fair price... which is exactly what we were looking for.
