Wow!! I definitely recommend staying with Derrick, Henrike, and Eleanor. They are so welcoming and kind. They are a terrific example of why you should choose Airbnb instead of a corporate hotel. They go out of their way to make sure that your stay with them is comfortable. The apartment itself is well laid-out and has everything you need for a quick stay. The kitchenette is sufficient for reheating takeout or grabbing some refrigerated snacks. I really liked the living room setup too. The shower pressure was fine, the linens on the bed were comfortable... I really have nothing bad to say about my stay here! Eleanor is an amazing baby, I was totally amazed and entranced by her energy and openness, and it's obvious where it comes from :) The neighborhood itself is quiet. It's a 20 minute walk or so to Rhode Island Avenue. Since I had an injury I took Uber everywhere, and getting to Shaw or U Street is super quick. I lived in DC for two years but was genuinely surprised at how comforting it could be to stay at someone's home and be treated with kindness rather than just being an anonymous person at a hotel. I'd definitely stay here again and recommend it to my friends, family and anyone who will listen!
