    Was surprised he knocked the door but he just wanted to make sure I checked in. I sent email but he didn't reply maybe i didn't know how to contact him? The door was quite hard to open.

    Clean and cozy. I want to choose this room again if I visit there. It's very clean. I should take my shoes off which means the floor was clean. It was 2nd floor. It was cold weather but the room was warm.

    The lack of air-con, the misleading pictures of the lounge and kitchen. There isn't any air-conditioni going in thebroom: it's just a blower, which unfortunately wasn't sufficient amidst the super hot weather. We couldn't use either the lounge or the kitchen, so I don't really know why they are posted.

    The owner, the location, the possibility to park directly outside the house, the fridge in thebroom

    Great location and very friendly and helpful host. It was perfect for my 1 night stay in DC, but I would not want to stay for an extended period of time, as you're renting a 2nd floor bedroom and bathroom in someone else's house without a separate entrance, so it is a bit strange (for me). If I needed to spend a night in DC, I would stay here again.

    the room gets extremely hot and stuffy making it a bit hard to sleep. there is a portable fan which is great but can be quiet loud.

    it was super convenient to get in and out of. great location for a great price. Thang was very accommodating and friendly to communicate with. we felt safe and comfortable.

    Stayed 3 nights early October '22. Thang was a great host. Really friendly and welcoming, gave me some useful tips for nearby places to go. Room has a double bed with cupboard and a fridge. Bathroom is next door and is just for your use. Has bath/shower and shampoo, showergel and towels are provided. Great little place and in a really handy location. Area is really quiet and in a nice neighbourhood between a couple of schools. About 10 min walk to 7th Street to catch the metro at Mt. Vernon, 5 mins to Giant, to get supplies and about 10 mins to Dacha, a really cool beer garden that's buzzin'. Highly recommend if you're looking and not sure where to stay.

    This is a very nice house, and Thang is a very friendly host. The bathroom next to the guest bedroom is yours privately, which I really appreciated. The instructions I received from Thang before I arrived were clear. The house is around 10-min walk from the nearest metro station, and easy to reach by foot from downtown and the museums.

    Worst experience and grossly mis-advertised

    - Owner was friendly at first, offered me two bottles of water when I arrived. But then it got uncomfortable. When I left the next morning, he complimented my bag, outfit, saying “cute” and was in my space as I was leaving. There is a chair next to the door and while I was putting on my shoes, he emerged from his desk and walked up to inspect my bag and outfit. I respect the need to take your shoes off at the door, but when I got back, I kept them on as I was changing into a dress for an evening event and felt uneasy. I did not want to be cornered again on my way out. - There were two mismatched towels hanging on the bathroom rack. One was unusable as it was rough and mildewy. Also, that is NOT your private bathroom. He used it several times to loudly clear phlegm from his throat, as late as midnight, at times. Also, another honest 1-star review has a photo of fungus on the shower spout grout. It's still there. - The TV was on blast and he talked loudly on the phone to what I assume were colleagues. The walls are paper-thin and you can hear everything. - I have stayed in AirBnbs in Chicago’s Chinatown and they are immaculate and smell nice. This was not the case here. Owner cooked pungent foods without putting on a fan or opening a window and the entire house, including the private room, reeked. The final night, I had to put on a fan in the room as it was stinky and stuffy. Air blew right in my face. I cook lots of different foods from the world over, I always use the fan above the stove to neutralize any odors in my own home. - Thankfully I was out most of the time. But, when I checked out this morning, I scanned the living room and kitchen from the front door area and was disgusted by the food mess and clutter. You’re free to live how you want in your own house. If you advertise on Booking.com that this is a clean, quiet place with its own bathroom, you better take a few moments each day to clean up after yourself - especially in the main area of the house.

    The bedroom and bathroom doors had locks that worked.

    Lots of dust under the bed, on lamps and in the bathroom. Also there were bedbugs in the bed. We now have bedbug bites all over our bodies. Furthermore, there was a huge cockroach in the bathroom. There were only 2 towels (for 2 people), almost empty bottle of soap and no toilet paper.

    Good location, free parking lot

    The conditions of the accommodation differed from those shown in the offer. We spent an hour on site and then found a hotel at the same price. 1. The room is located on the first floor of a detached house where the owner lives. The kitchen and living room cannot be used. 2. The location is also objectionable, we did not feel safe there. 3. In addition, the room was dirty. The bedding was all crumpled and stale. 4. The floor, the carpet were also dirty, there were dust and rubbish. The fridge was covered with a strange substance. 5. There is fungus in the bathroom! 6. But the worst was a hole in the floor, with rubbish in it and a pipe where bugs or other animals could enter. Although we did not stay in this accommodation, the owner does not want to refund our money and has stopped writing back!
