Private room in trendy Mount Pleasant Row House

First - don't be turned off that Mark's place is not near a Metro stop. The C61 is a crosstown bus that goes right by his place. The service is frequent and runs 24/7. You can pick up the westbound bus (to Tenleytown) at the Columbia Heights Green Line station *or* the eastbound bus (to Brookland) at the Cleveland Park Red Line station. If you want to get your steps in, it is about a 20 minute walk to his place from Columbia Heights. [I did it; it was fine.] So there is a reason why I am spending some of the review content on the ease of getting to his place - the place...and the host...are exceptional. I was visiting Washington DC to attend the Freedom 250 events (no judgement!). Communication and check in were very easy. It is a beautiful space. The descriptions are accurate. I enjoyed meeting Mark and our conversations. My bedroom was spacious and comfortable. The house also has central A/C, which I look for, as window units are so noisy. I like how there are different rooms on the main floor that serves different purposes. The neighborhood is also very peaceful. The fireworks didn't end until after 12:30am. I was happy that I did not have to hire a car to get to his place - public transit was fine - saved a lot of money. His place is great if you want to focus on computer tasks...or read. The WiFi is great. There is a TV in the guest room, if you want to watch something, but I like it when the host and I are not watching television. It allows us to have a good conversation. You will not be disappointed staying at Mark's place. I like that it was off the beaten path. you will, too! Thanks, Mark, for a great stay!

Had a great stay at Mark's place. The room was spacious, with a very comfortable bed and lots of nice natural light, which made it feel really welcoming. Mark was kind, communicative, and made sure I had everything I needed throughout my trip. Check-in and communication were easy and smooth. I'd definitely recommend staying here
