  • Chiko is a stellar host. Accommodated are crazy early arrival and was a stand up guy all way round.

  • Enjoyed my time at the penthouse. Nice full kitchen, comfy air mattress, and the gym was better than most hotels. The building is very close to Sligo Creek trail which was great for an occasional run. Chiko is a wonderful host. He was very responsive and accommodating throughout my stay.

  • I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Chiko and his abode. He was SO accommodating, helping me get to his place at the late hour my flight arrived into DC. The previous reviews about needing to bring your own bedding are not up to date, as he had more than enough sheets to keep me cozy. Thank you Chiko for all your help, I will definitely be trying to stay here again if I'm in the area!

    Chiko is amazing. We needed a room at the last minute and Chiko responded to us in no time. Chiko's studio is so awesome. Hi kitichen is stuffed with goodies, and all kinds of cooking utensils you may ever need. His Air bed and the futon bed are very comfortable. Chiko was very warm and even let us have a late check out. I recommend Chiko's place highly to everyone.

    My daughter, Juanita and I were fortunate enough to snag an open week in Chiko's beautiful condo...especially since it was the week of Easter. First and foremost let me say the pictures do not justify the beauty of the condo!! On arrival, we were pleased with the amazing beauty of the grounds...the dogwoods and the redbuds were still in full bloom and the grass was the brightest green you could imagine and freshly mowed!! The building was very simple to find and extremely convenient to downtown DC in addition to many stores and restaurants in fact an IHOP is in a shopping center next to it!!! The view of the Capital filled our windshield within minutes of leaving the condo going into town. The unit has beautiful hardwood floors and I had the opportunity to cook on the gas range, insuring my choice of range in the new house we are presently building!! The futon opens into a double bed that was great for me and Juanita said the queen sized air mattress was very comfortable and never lost any air the entire week!!! We had all the comforts of home in DC!! If you have the time be sure to see Great Falls Nat'l Park just minutes from the condo...you will not regret it!! The city was overrun with students but we still enjoyed many of the Smithsonian Museums!! Wed., Juanita and I took a day off from sightseeing and we both slept most of the day!! I guess we had overdone the touring a little. Being a handicapped person, the elevator was a dream..we were able to bring my scooter in each night for recharging for the next day!! There is not one negative thing to say about the condo...it is amazing as was our host, Chiko...very friendly, warm, charming...I could go on , if you need more accolades!! Seriously, we were thrilled with our choice of condo and host!! If you are considering a vacation in the area, you will not be disappointed!!! Thanks Airbnb for your service and again , thanks Chiko, for sharing your condo with others...you are the best!!!

  • Chiko is a very amiable guy. He did answer always right away. He even picked us up at Takoma station. The apartment is luxurious. A fully equipped kitchen, a nice and tidy bathroom and good furniture. Just around the corner are a diner and several shops. I recommend staying there!

  • Chico is a nice guy and helpful with information about the area and about the condo. The condo is nicely located and easy to find plus it is just very close to Washington, DC. There is parking for our car. The condo is clean and beautiful kitchen. The air mattress is a big plus for a very good night rest after a long drive and a day spent walking around the Capitol Mall. The main reason for our brief stop in Washington, DC, was to see the Cherr Blossom Festival, but a few weeks late, as the all the cherry blossoms were all gone along the Tifal Basin, but still a nice visit!!! We also had a pleasant visit at the US National Albureton where the azalea was in full bloom!'nm

  • My friend and I had a lovely stay. The condo appears to be newly remodeled with granite countertops and hardwood floors. Laundry facilities are available within the apartment or, if you need to do more than one load at a time, there are additional washers on the same floor for no additional cost. Other tenants we met were friendly and the building is quiet at night. The location is convienent with a bus stop in front of the building and grocery store about a block away. Sligo Creek Trail is about a block south and is a beautiful running or biking trail with small play areas for children. Chiko is great to work with! We had a very smooth check in / check out process. He always answered my text messages or email right away. We had one minor issue that Chiko resolved immediately. I highly recommend this location and this host!

  • I agree with those who say the condo looks the way it does in the pictures. I rented Chiko's condo for one month while I was renovating my own home. The building and the condo are well maintained. Chiko was very accommodating to my situation. The condo is convenient to downtown Takoma Park. On my way to work, I easily caught a bus to the metro. Overall, I greatly enjoyed my stay.

  • Chiko is really a nice guy who tried to make the stay comfortable. My parents really liked the studio and I would highly recommend my friends who visit DC to stay there. Perfect location, comfortable place, and nice host!

  • About: I am a dreamer who intends to turn his dreams into reality. I am a very diverse individual with many different backgrounds, knowledge, experiences, and accomplishments. I am an individual who strives to live a positive lifestyle. I am an individual who loves the rare commodity of true friendship, and last but not least, I am an individual with that "entrepreneurial spirit" that you see/hear/read about. I live and breath success, success is not a surprise to me, but simply a visible realization of who I am. In life I have been able to accomplish any and everything that I have ever put my mind too, because of my ever-growing faith. Now, I am on another venture, to live a lifestyle second to none, to include/help anyone with paralleled dreams and goals. An adventure not to inhabit in mediocrity, to be more than average, to add value to this world, to be more than I was, to plant a seed of hope, to create a positive influence, to muster up courage in my fellow beings, to teach self-discipline through my actions, to love without fear of not being loved, to always remember the weak, to serve others to the best of my abilities, to cherish every single second of life and to give of myself. All in the hopes of a better place, world, home that I can give as a special gift to my future offspring, my family, my friends, future generations, and last but not least, those who make the mistake of considering me their enemy.
