Ideally Located DC Home w/ Pool Table & Patio

This interestingly titled listing is certainly an affordable home option (surprised to see it on Hotels.com - property is maintained by Evolve and it is nowhere mentioned in the listing), conveniently located in the city. However, it is not recommended and not suitable for business trips. I stayed here with two colleagues during a recent business trip. The home itself is spacious, with a large living area, a patio, a nice pool table, and plenty of open parking. That said, we encountered two significant issues during our stay. The second-floor bathroom commode clogged twice. We reported the issue in the morning but only received a phone call/ text later in the evening—by which time I was in back-to-back business meetings and didn’t notice the messages. They were apparently seeking permission to enter the property to fix the problem, which seemed unusual. We expected the issue to be resolved by the time we returned in the evening. Instead, we were informed that a plunger was available on-site and we could try to fix it ourselves as we did not provide permission in time. Unfortunately, we had to do just that—my colleague used the plunger late in the evening due to the unpleasant odor. However, the toilet clogged again the following morning, indicating a recurring issue and raising concerns about the overall property maintenance. While the property manager did apologize and offered a late check-out, it didn’t really help—since we needed to get ready and leave early for work.
