The Best of Washington, DC

Charlotte provided me with books and maps that were extremely helpful. There was much privacy and comfort. Clean. Given the location, it takes a little bit longer to travel. But the Dupont Circle Metro wasn't too far once the D6 arrived.

This place is great. I will like to recommend this place to others. The host is super nice, the location is very convenient and the room facilities are much comfortable.

Charlotte's place is just as described in her listing. It's in a safe, scenic, established neighborhood that's convenient for sight-seeing, *excellent* dining or just hanging out. You can get to a supermarket, drugstore and wine market (and even a library!) just around the corner if you need anything on the fly. The guest area is very roomy, well-appointed, quiet, spotlessly clean and comfortable. She even has stacks of maps, brochures for attractions and guidebooks to the city and region, plus she's always available to recommend a restaurant, a good route for sightseeing - anything you would ask a concierge at a fine hotel. We are extremely lucky to have found Charlotte and could not have asked for a more friendly, knowledgeable, gracious host. We highly recommend The Best of Washington, DC and hope to return there soon ourselves!!

I and Carolina had a amanzing experience recently in DC where we spent exactly 1 month there to study. And "The Best of DC" and Charlotte were a great part to make this period have been so nice. The room is very charming, comfortablfe and clean. The view of the green backyard from the room's windows is very nice. The neighborhood is beautiful, quiet and calm. There are some cafes and restaurants around and a supermarket (Safeway) just two blocks from the house. It is also very easy to take a bus to go to other neighborhoods. The bus stop is just one block from the house and the bus will take you to the heart of Georgetown for about 10 minutes for instance. Charlotte is very friendly and she gave us some usefull information about the city apart from some maps, city guides, metrocards and other materials that were available in the house. We hardly recommend the stay in the Best of DC.

I am absolutely delighted with our stay and experience in DC. This is due largely to the wonderful host we found through Airnb. I am highly recommending a stay at The Best of Washington, DC, because I believe it is the best. Our host was kind, caring, and helpful. And the location was awesome too. The people in the area wer also quite friendly and thoughtful of our needs. Loved it! I can't say enough about how wonderful it was. Thank you Charlotte, and Airnb!

We had a gret time at Charlotte,s. The neibourhood is safe, beautiful and people is very nice. The locación is good, you can go direct to downtown with d5 and d6 bus. Charlotte probided us all supply we need for oír estay so it wad better than any hotel. I totaly recomend this place!

A lovely person who went out of her way to make our stay pleasant.

My friend Sam and myself stayed in the best of washington for four nights and could not have enjoyed our experience more. Charlotte is thorough in making sure that your stay goes smoothly and comfortably. You could not find someone more knowledgeable about the area or more willing to help you find fun activities to do in the city. The room is very comfortable and cool with the A/C. It is also very clean. The bus that you have to ride to get into the city (D6 bus) does not come very often, so don't plan on making multiple trips into the city in one day. Overall, a wonderful experience and Charlotte is the lady to stay with in D.C.

We had a wonderful stay. We almost felt as if we were natives of D.C. After a few attempts driving through town in a rented minivan, we happily rode the bus into the center of the city. Interesting ride through a variety of neighborhoods. Charlotte is a great host. She provides terrific information and suggestions. Our night of New Orleans jazz at the French Embassy is case in point. The room itself was relaxing and quiet -- a nice counterpoint to City life. We thank you Charlotte!

Charlotte was an amazing host. The place was comfortable even for three people. The space is better than it looks. Her kids were also adorable and sweet. I would stay again, 100% recommend.

The Bird House was a perfect little apartment for us. It had everything we needed to have a really comfortable stay. The hosts even lent us a stroller for our baby which was so nice. It's decorated tastefully but minimally, is warm, has lots of conveniences like a fully equipped kitchen, extra towels, bedding and pillows, a nice shower, and just enough space. The neighborhood is also great - charming and useful. We made many trips to Mac Market and had a delicious meal from Et Voila. We would love to stay here again.

We really liked the place. Comfortable and clean. The owner really cares about guest. Great location!

My husband and I had such lovely stay here. Tom is exactly what you'd want in a host - easy going, friendly and helpful and never intrusive. The space is really comfy and cozy, and has absolutely everything you'd ever need -- good lighting, temp control, coffee maker, toaster oven, microwave, fully stocked dishware and cooking supplies, wifi, cable tv, laundry and a really pretty backyard (to name a few). Charlotte and Tom even left some good coffee, and tasty snacks and drinks for us in the kitchen. They're obviously very thoughtful people who take pleasure in sharing their space on airbnb. As for the location, well, it simply can't be beat. I know DC pretty well and Georgetown is the most prime place to stay, in my opinion. If you're worried about getting around DC because Georgetown doesn't have it's own metro stop, don't be. The DC Circulator bus is a buck and takes you all over town - the closest bus stop is like a block and a half away on Wisconsin. It couldn't be more convenient. In short, I can't wait to book my next stay at this place.

Our stay in the birdhouse was fantastic the Palisades is a really nice area totally safe and scenic and also convenient to get into town to sight see my parents even walked to the National Mall from the house! There was everything we needed from extra linen to any kind of kitchen utensil you could need and with shops and restaurants out the front door made for a very easy stay. Matthias was quick to respond to any queries we had and we recommend anyone to stay here.

We had a lovely time in Charlotte's apartment. The communication was clear. It is a very nice apartment, larger than we expected and with everything you could need for a stay in Washington. It is in a great location, very close to Capitol Hill and Union Station. There is a small super market only steps away and a small collection of great restaurants and other places to eat. It is also a nice walk away from the Eastern Market which are wonderful on the weekend. It was also very simple to leave our bags there on the last day.

The best part of the stay was our hostess. She was wonderful in quickly responding to our questions and offering suggestions regarding tours, attractions, parking, etc. She could not have done a better job. Thank you Charlotte.

It was the second time I stayed in an apartment of Charlotte. It was not the same apartment but this apartment met my expectation completly. And finally it was the best decision that I did. The equipment and the furniture are top. The neighborhood is very nice and quiet also. Every time when I come to Washington I'm gonna try to book an apartment of Charlotte.

We had a very nice stay at Charlotte's apartment near Dupont Circle. The location is very convenient and the apartment is nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. I will highly recommend this place to others.

The place is charming and comfortable and Charlotte was very responsive to any of our needs or questions.

My stay at The Bird House fulfilled my expectations. I think the best part, in addition to a great host, was that the bed was extremely comfortable and there was plenty of light (no basement place). The kitchen was stocked with high-end pots and pans, and the shower had great water pressure. Travelers like me care about these things a lot! The bus into DC takes about 15 minutes, depending on whether you're stopping in Georgetown or continuing in to the downtown area. I would definitely stay at a place hosted by Charlotte if The Bird House wasn't available.

In April, this native Washiontonian went back to Charlotte P and AirBnB for a repeat booking in DC. Through Charlotte, I was introduced to another wonderful property in my favorite neighborhood. The Riverview home was incredibly special—spacious, beautifully appointed, gorgeous location and my host, Denise, was just wonderful— so thoughtful at every turn. Thanks to Charlotte, I always look forward to my next trip back "home"!
