Sojourn

“The apartment was nice but we had to clean the ice-maker before we could use it due to excessive mold, and had issues with the hot plate not wanting to work after we had already bought groceries it would only work with one pot out of four pans then the owners called us wanting to search the apartment for a previous guest lost item ,while we were staying and the thought of this just did not sit right with us and is a invasion of privacy, I will not be using sojourn again anytime soon.”

“Overall, the place was nice, and the environment was pleasant and enjoyable. The space itself was good, but there were a few basic necessities missing that would have improved the stay. There were no paper towels or basic kitchen staples like salt and pepper provided. I also noticed that some of the dishes were dirty when I arrived, and one of the pots provided was dirty as well. Additionally, the pots and pans that were available were not compatible with the induction cooktop, which made cooking difficult. Aside from those issues, the surrounding environment was nice, and with a few improvements to cleanliness and kitchen supplies, the experience could be much better.”

“It wasn't bad but the fact that the space was not clean and that they ignored/ did not reply to the text I sent with pictures about the stains, and the trash left in the balcony was a little disappointing. It was a strong smoking smell every time we sat in the living area. And too much noise in the upstairs apartment.”

“Too much money for a dark basement. Small studio, small bathroom, shower curtain is too short, wet floor . At this price one expects better quality . Good location, good bed, decent closet. Overall, not a good experience for what they charge even for Washington DC. Will NOT come back.”

“Room was very small. No coffee, or tea provided. Did provide water but not sure if it was the host or other guest that left that since there was also food in the fridge that wasn’t ours. The bed is lumpy and sags in certain areas very uncomfortable. Not flexible on check in by any amount of time. Was told no early check in was allowed. The area rug was pretty old. Doesn’t look like it’s been cleaned in sometime. Only positive was the location, nothing more. I’ve been on Airbnb for 17 years and don’t leave too many neg comments but I believe if you’re in this industry, you better come close to what hotels offer; if not, why would anyone bother to stay in a Airbnb place at all!?!! E.g Hosts need to change mattresses and pillows at least every two years. I think the gift of a good night’s sleep is something all hosts need to strive for, for their guests.”

“Beautiful location however whole place needs maintenance & cleaning. Locks were all broken even on main floor, all windows so dirty can’t see through them. Lighthouse lookout is so dirty you can’t even stand out. Place was difficult to maneuver when we arrived but we figured things out like hidden light switches (and broken lock issues, needed house supplies which someone did promptly bring over). Locks on main floor were biggest issue, one broken I understand but everything - this shows careless hosting. Should’ve been fixed before I arrived.”

“home was cold. entrance was treacherous!~ not enough towels, nor hangers i was told some coffee pods were there but none there floor in all rooms was cold, including bathroom it was impossible to arrange parking no dishwasher soap”

“I'm going to be honest with you guys this was a terrible welcoming, first off Hanan front desk instead of saying welcome first thing he said was "this is not a hotel" like what who says that to a stranger and then anis front desk also telling me to "leave my drivers license or id" with him when i asked him why he couldn't answer me. Plus the key card still doesn't work someone from the Hilton side has to let us up everytime it's kind of annoying. For my first time being out here in dc this is a terrible experience so far so. The whole key to the unit situation needs more in-depth explanation for future bookers, i was told someone would reach out and make it up to me in the morning for my troubles the night before and that was a lie. But i understand i will be back in dc in the future just not at this place.”

“They had a plumbing issue- not their fault but seage in the shower and leaked into closet. Didn't know make right even though 2 designer shoes were ruined and couldn't 't use the apartment for a full day. Expected to be made whole - not even close. They kept asking for receipts for shoes!!! I took pics of the damage - but not good enough. They ask the impossible when you were clearly damaged”

“Buyer beware. First of all, there was no water supply to the house. No water supply for sinks showers. Nothing Nada. Hot tub was almost empty, untreated, and disgusting. The handle was falling off the freezer door. There was no ice in the icemaker nor would it make ice. The refrigerator would not cool adequately in the freezer would not freeze adequately the place is very dated. It needs everything a complete remodel.”
