Hatim was a great host and he has a wonderful home. He made us feel like we were staying at a close friends house instead of a strangers. We especially loved the upstairs sitting deck (the view at night was wonderful), stereo system, and the unique decor. My wife and I liked the memory foam mattress so much in the master bedroom that we actually looked who the manufacture was. The location was a couple minutes to the metro and we felt totally safe in the neighborhood.
