I would like to give this property a 4.5 star if that were an option. The location was perfect for me, the house was older, but generally in good shape and clean. The major issue was check in. The reservation simply said to contact the property manager for check in information, but the only contact info given was a phone number that went to a voice mail that did not identify the number as associated with Eden Park. This caused some confusion. Once I did get in contact with the manager, she was extremely helpful and everything went smoothly after that point.

Internet, and a large sign out front of the property, say that Eden Park is a B&B. Not so. No breakfast, no coffee, no juice. No tumbler for water. The code for wifi, posted at the front desk, is wrong--I had to read the back of the router to get the right one. I never saw or heard a staff person after I checked in, and I stayed 3 nights. The facility's paint job is amateurish and the room was tiny. No place to open a suitcase except on the bed or the one chair. Choose what to block with it: access to sink, door to room, or room's only drawer. Sink was tiny and in a corner--couldn't stand in the middle and raise arms (to dry hair) without elbow hitting the wall. Seemed clean. Shower was nice and newly tiled. Only a short walk to Metro.

It is not a bed and breakfast. It is a bed and coffee. It is walking distance to the metro and food co-op. Nobody is around to ask questions. It is old...the faucet in the sink needs to be tightened down. It took a very long time to get warm water. I was the only one in the building, so I had no one to compete with to make my coffee. Very clean establishment with nice wooden floors and staircase.

There is no-one at the property and calling the number, you get a machine. The heat is not turned on in the lobby and it is only turned on in the room when you get there. The building could be very charming but is in need of repair and renovation. For instance, the bathroom walls are cracked and some are speckled, but not painted. There were missing shower curtain hangers as well as they were mix and matched. In the middle of the night we were awakened by another guest shouting for over 30 minutes. contacting the guest house got no response. When we heard a child whimpering we called the police. It was very scary.

The property was in a great location for my activities in both DC and Silver Springs. I felt safe and secure at the location and rested well at night. There were several eateries in walk distance and parking was free and easy at the front door. The room was small and a little run down and cheaply furnished. The bed groaned when we sat on it or rolled over. The wardrobe was a white fiberboard utility cabinet like i got from Lowes. In summary if you're looking for economy with solid basics, this property will do you fine.

The guest house is in a good location close to the Metro station and a quick ride into Downtown DC. Many good restaurants are located nearby in Takoma Park which is a cute area. The property itself is tidy but appears to need a deep clean and is very outdated. Staff were friendly but not present.

Good location, friendly owner, but only few amenities. Slow and late responses with the shared areas. My tv was broken, wasn’t replaced, and no other room was offered to be prior through Hotels.com or by the owner in time. No refrigerator or laundry on site.

The room was smaller than expected, it was stifling hot when I arrived because the staff wasn’t there and no one had thought to turn in the air, no one was there to ask about how to do so, so for the first hour I was afraid I would have to leave and find other accommodations. The jet tub, which was why I wanted that room, was old, secreted and the water had a piss color to it. There was an old pizza in the mini fridge and the tv was not viewable comfortably from the bed, or the desk. The mattress wasn’t firm enough to sleep through the night. There was no breakfast in the bed and breakfast, they offered cereal bars and coffee pods, but no creamer and no sugar to be found. However, the location was ideal, within walking distance of everything I was there for. I feel like my weekend was a success in spite of the Eden House not because of it.

Think twice!
This is actually not a bed & breakfast since no meals are served. Since it is just lodging with no amenities it would have been nice to have a decent mattress and pillows. What I had was old, worn, and not firm or comfortable. The porch and room pictures are quite misleading. I guess it's true you do get what you pay for.

Great location but some issues
We booked due to the location being near transit and free parking. The neighbourhood was nice. There was no one on the property we ever saw for check in and check out. The room was mostly fine. The bed was pretty hard but there was AC, a microwave, a bar fridge and a bathroom. The bathroom had almost no soap left and there was ants all over the bathtub and shower. We had to keep washing them away to use the shower. The fire alarm also repeatedly went off and no one came to help. The fire fighters were upset and said it happened often. We had no idea if it was safe to continue to stay there or what and never got any answers. Other guests took all of the breakfast bars that were left and none were replenished in the morning. This place would have been great if there was no ants or fire alarm and enough soap or replenishing of supplies. There could be some maintenance done to the building and rooms as it’s dated. It’s a pretty substantial price not expecting some of these things. The location and convenience to the metro is really a plus though.

Extremely quiet B&B in an adorable neighborhood/ less than 10 min walk to Red line. What a find! Reasonably priced clean place to stay minutes from DC. The B&B was very quiet, the front desk staff/ management was very efficient: they checked us in, made sure beverage/coffee area was stocked, then we barely saw them. We had a clean, decent sized room with its own bathroom (some share bathrooms) and mini-fridge which was perfect for our needs. The surrounding neighborhood on route to the Metro, was vibrant. A ton of unique restaurants and shops lined the street. Would definitely stay here again!

It was a decent place to stay, right in town, within walking distance to many restaurants. It is an older home and the pictures of the place are old, it does not look as fresh in person. It needs some maintenance our bathroom door handle was coming loose, and the door stuck and the whole place could use some paint. It is very clean and very quiet. Due to covid there was no breakfast at this bed and breakfast but there was coffee available. If I were to ever go back to that area, I would consider staying here again.
