Mark was an exceptional host and his apartment was just perfect. Mark met us on arrival and showed us around the property, as well as giving us pointers about where to eat in the surrounding area. The apartment is in a complex right in the heart of one of the best shopping areas in DC, just a short walk from the Washington conference centre and from all the major attractions. The property itself is secure (with concierge service), spotlessly clean and immaculately maintained, and has all the facilities needed for a very comfortable stay (including two ensuite double bedrooms and a spacious lounge/kitchen area with a sofa that can be used for additional bed space). It was the wrong time of the year (December) for us to make use of the outside pool, but that must be a great experience in the summer! Overall one of the best AirBnB properties that we have ever used, and we highly recommend staying here.
