Ruben, I must say, has absolutely the kind of house you would want stay in forever. He's done just that, right down from the furnishings, a presidential bath suite with two (God-I-miss-these) designer shower heads, two lovely cats and a poodle. I wished I could have stayed to see his blooms in the garden following the nasty winter, but I stayed long enough. I only wished I knew about his place way earlier! If you want a place away from the hustle and bustle of downtime DC, THIS IS IT. Ruben's nice, warm, caring and super considerate. There are never enough superlatives to describe his home and the owner. After a year of staying around airbnb places I would place this gem firmly at the top of all my airbnb experiences.
