Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy
The host had accidentally double-booked the property, the first night, but was very helpful in arranging other lodgings at no additional cost to me.Overall, I enjoyed my stay. Walking distance to mom & pop shops, Target and Whole Foods. Easy bus access, and bit of a hike to Metro.In the future, the host may want to stock the unit with more cookware—at least one more pan and some cooking utensils.
