There were both positives and negatives to our stay at Lexie and Graham's place.
Positives: The apartment was advertised: clean, comfortable, spacious, and cheery. We really enjoyed spending time in the beautiful living room/open kitchen having wine and snacks and watching TV on the big couch. The Metro is an easy walk away, as is 14th St. in Columbia Heights with many restaurants, etc. Our hosts provided extensive information/instructions about the place and surrounding area prior to our stay -- all very helpful. They even accommodated our request for a late checkout and responded right away.
Negatives: While Lexie and Graham were very responsive and helpful prior to our stay, communication and follow-up weren't great during the weekend itself. On Friday night, we ran into two issues: a floodlight shining directly into the back bedroom and some noise disruption in the middle of the night that alarmed us. We wrote a note to Lexie and Graham on Saturday morning and rang their doorbell a few times (they live in the unit above), but received no response. Eventually we ran into Graham, who was very friendly, explained the nighttime noise to put us at ease, and said he'd adjust the floodlight so it didn't shine right into the bedroom. Unfortunately he didn't seem to have done so because the problem persisted that night. We also heard lots of noise from the apartment above, which didn't bother us hugely but not great for light sleepers or those who prefer total quiet. Additionally, the apartment also only had one roll of toilet paper -- we ran out after midnight on our second night and discovered that there was no extra rolls, which was frustrating.
Overall: a nice place that with a few adjustments in communication and attentiveness would have been fantastic.
