There are truly not enough wonderful things we can say about Chris and Geni's Airbnb!! My husband and I lived here for THREE MONTHS. We've never done an extended stay like that before but we've stayed at many, many Airbnbs and this was by far the absolute best stay and experience we've ever had. We would not hesitate to stay there again and would have stayed even longer if we needed to!
The Hosts-
Chris and Geni are INCREDIBLE. They are so kind, thoughtful, incredibly easy to communicate with, and have thought of everything. The Airbnb has so many wonderful, intentional touches that make your stay comfortable and feel at home while also feeling like a nice little vacation at the same time! Because the unit has its own entrance it feels very private if you prefer not to interact with your host but should you need to they make it so comfortable.
The Location-
We have been to DC tons of times prior to this stay and had never heard of or explored the Mt Pleasant area. It quickly became our favorite! It is beautifully tree-lined, quiet, safe, and a very quick walk to the main street with great restaurants, a market for any needs, stores, a great wine shop, and bars. It is also accessible to so many other lovely parts of the city. If you want to go out, Adams Morgan is close enough to walk to and offers so much! The back entrance of the zoo is about a 5-minute walk away as well which was such a fun unique option! Street parking was never a problem right outside of the unit so driving further was also very easy. And of course, since it's a city, Ubers were always minutes away and inexpensive.
The space-
While it is a studio unit, it is very spacious, has excellent storage, and divides well so that my husband and I never felt cramped or like we wished we had more space. There is a perfect nook for dining, a very well-equipped and lovely kitchen, a sleeper sofa, and a comfy bed! We even had friends stay with us and had plenty of room for guests on the pull-out couch!
Honestly, if this Airbnb is available BOOK IT immediately! You will not regret it. Just don't book every day up so that we have the chance to stay there again in the future :).
