The host canceled the reservation the day I was due to check in. I found out about this when I checked my messages after landing at DCA. She said she had double booked the place and the other guests got there first. So I was left scrambling to find somewhere to stay which was not easy as most places were full. I was traveling on government business so was limited to per diem rates which were impossible to get at such short notice. So it was not only a stressful experience, it also cost me a lot of money in out of pocket expenses. And it made it difficult for me to spend time with my son who is a freshman at GWU as we had planned. She has offered three comp nights at the place and a contribution towards the out of pocket which I have yet to receive as I write this, 11 days after the original check in date.
