This place is amazing and convenient! There is no need to look any further. The home was very clean and organized. It was also full of meaningful and surprising amenities, such as a full-length mirror! The location is great for visiting nearby attractions. Check-in was super fast and without hassle. The hostess was very kind, and she made herself available for all communication needs. I'm definitely coming back!

About the host
Hosted by Geraldine
Transplanted from NYC 17 yrs ago, after serving in the Peace Corps. I am a project manager working in International Development/Foreign Aid.
We are a multicultural and multilingual home (English, French, and Spanish). When not at home, you’ll find me at the gym, organizing events, or following my son to his various sport outings.
Why they chose this property
My neighborhood is distinguished by its leafy streets, single-family homes, transit stations and above all, its greenspace. It is home to a number of Civil War fort sites that have since been turned into parkland including: Fort Mahan Park, Fort Davis Park, Fort Chaplin Park and Fort Dupont Park, the largest city-owned park in the District.
What makes this property unique
Built in 1940s, still has it original architecture, including arched entryway. House is furnished with items collected from my travels in Africa and Caribbean. The walls are decorated with vibrant colors.
