Nice comfortable place outside the hustle and bustle of downtown with reasonable access to DC sights, tours, museums and restaurants. Would stay here again.
We enjoyed our stay at this clean and spacious townhome in a great location. The owner is wonderful and accommodating. I would stay here again, and recommend it to friends.
Stayed at this property as we were too late to book conference hotels, and it turned out to be a great choice. Plenty of room for 3 of us to have our own space, cool building & neighborhood, and less than 10 min car ride to downtown. Very easy check-in/out. Highly recommend!
We had a great time here! We were able to check in early, and offered a late check out if our flight had any delays. Plenty of space for five of us. All with seperate bathrooms. Our host was very accomodating and easy to reach if we needed them. We were very close to the metro which was amaxing for what we wanted to see. I would definitely stay here again!
We had a blast with our four kids. Apartment was perfect for us and close to the metro to sightsee quickly! Owner was very accommodating letting us check in early and stay a little later to catch our flight. Thank you again! We will be back!!
The apartment is extremely nice and very clean, just as described and pictured. James is very accommodating and communicative. However, We didn’t like the walk to and from the Shaw metro or riding the local bus. We didn’t really have any problems, we just didn’t feel safe at times. If you are willing to Uber in and out I would recommend staying here. I parked my vehicle on the street and didn’t have any problems. Wonderful apartment, mediocre location.
There were 4 of us including one age 85 and another age 91! The listing's photos accurately display the property and its features. The stairs within the unit are quite steep, so holding onto the rail and being careful was the way to go. The kitchen is very well equipped, though seemingly designed for giants ;-) ! We loved that the living room had enough sofa/chairs to provide everyone a comfy spot. Not a negative, a suggestion: add some grab-bars and anti-slide features to the bath tubs. Great experience overall and communication with owner was very good. Would recommend.
My family (spouse, kids ages 8-16, and I) stayed in this home for a week to be DC tourists. Having spent part of our vacation squeezed into a hotel room, we greatly appreciated having enough space and bathrooms for all of us to recharge separately. The portable air conditioners throughout the home made the temperature comfortable. We used public transportation during our stay, readily accessed via bus (just 1-2 minutes) or metro (10 minutes). The main street was occasionally a little noisy, but it wasn't disruptive to my children's ability to sleep. The owner was very quick with all communication, which I greatly appreciated. I'd recommend this home for future stays!
Good property in good location - a few minor issues
Extended family stay for 4 nights. The house is on a fairly busy road and the noise can be an issue in the front bedroom but it’s much quieter at the rear. In general the house was really good but could benefit from a few minor bits of sorting out - the blinds in one of the bedrooms don’t extend all the way down, there are a few bits of decoration needed (gaps between tiles in a bathroom etc) and there was a leaky window which let in rain during a storm. The host/manager was very responsive and helped sort out the problems as far as he could. Beds were very comfy and the kitchen was is well equipped. The area is up and coming, which makes it really interesting but like in a lot of the city you need to be sensible at night.
James was awesome to work with the house was peaceful, beds were good , kitchen was good, close to Mall. We had 8 people and lived there easily, table fit us all.great place great peoole
The house is in a great location. You are close to downtown Washington. The house was clean and we felt like we were at home. James was great to work with!
James was very quick to reply at all times. We forgot to ask for a parking pass and he provided one very quickly. Easy to get around via Uber or scooters or walk.
We had a wonderful time. The few things that needed adjusting for our group were quickly taken care of by the host. Took a minute to get used to the city noise but even that was charming. Took a bit to figure out the TVs but that enabled us to spend time talking and reminiscing. We hope that we didn't make too much noise for the host and his neighbors. Hope this lovely place is available next time we visit D.C. Thank you, James!
It was a great location. Lovely neighborhood, comfortable setting. We either Ubered, walked or took the metro everywhere. No need for a car. We ate out mostly, but the house has a full kitchen if you want to save money by cooking for yourself. We were 3 couples and we split the cost. It was much less expensive that 3 rooms in a hotel!!
This town house provides a nice base for us to visit relatives in DC. It is very clean and nicely finished, recently remodeled.
It had 4 bathrooms & 3 bedrooms. Kitchen nicely furnished, though we did not use it much.
Good WiFi.
We were able to park on the street with no problem, moving the car across the street from 4-630pm if we were home at that time.
James answered all questions in a matter of a few minutes.
