Eric and Kevin were great hosts and I really enjoyed my stay. The room and access in and out through the downstairs worked out just right for me. Eric was always friendly and quick in responding to my questions and requests. Both the room and shared space are really clean, quiet, uncluttered and nicely decorated in ways that canned hotel spaces cannot equal.
The neighborhood is safe, pleasant, family-friendly and within 15-20 minutes easy walk of Union Station, the Capitol, etc.. On-street parking was reasonably plentiful and facilitated by a neighborhood parking permit available to borrow.
This was an excellent first experience with airbnb for me that it will difficult for others to match. When I'm next in DC, I'll definitely see if they're still hosting in the hope that I can return. I'll also spread the word about my stay. Thanks so much again.
