Kyla and her friend were the perfect guests for my home. They took care of everything and adhered to all of my house rules. They are always welcome to stay with me!
Beautiful little house! The decor was interesting and colorful. The beds were very comfortable and there was room in the living area for everyone to sit comfortably. The kitchen was well appointed. Parking was easy and it was a quick little walk to the metro. Very nice!
What an adorable and comfy home! We had everything we needed to cook meals and the outdoor spaces were awesome for hanging out. We loved the arts and craft supplies the host provided, the bath/soaking supplies at the end of a long day of walking, and the beautiful artwork around the home was a real treat. The neighbors and neighborhood were quiet and friendly. I hope to be back in DC soon and will absolutely try to book this home again.
We stayed with our family. Place was well kept and decorated. It has everything we needed and could ask for. I highly recommend. Lavon was a great host, very responsive.
Booked to attend a nearby conference. This is such a beautiful property. The beds are incredibly comfortable and the space is so peaceful and welcoming. The host is incredibly responsive and left great recommendations of food to try. She really thought of everything to have a comfortable relaxing stay.

About the host
Hosted by Lavon Sajona
I was born in Ohio, but have traveled and lived internationally. My goal as a host is to showcase my art and the community here in S.E DC. So far, I have hosted a range of guests and enjoy meeting and engaging with them. I find it exciting.
Why they chose this property
I love it here. Southeast DC unfairly has a poor reputation but I find it to be a real community here. I feel safe and secure living here.
What makes this property unique
My space is eclectic and cannot be reproduced. I designed and decorated it to evoke an emotion and positive vibration and feel. I hope that you enjoy it.
