Everything was perfect.Apartment in perfect condition.Fully equipped kitchen. Brand new washing and drying machines.Great location.Hosts were very responsive when requesting an additional day to our stay given the snow storm shutdown.Highly recommendable place.
The home was very clean and well furnished. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could need including coffee & filters. Great location, close to restaurants and shopping in DuPont circle. Having a full size washer/dryer was a plus!The hosts communications was above & beyond, she even sent me tips & links for sight seeing.
The place was impeccably clean and as advertised. The extra towels and pack n play were much appreciated. The host was amazing at communication and gave thoughtful recommendations. The location felt safe and walkable to great food and less than 15 min walk to the metro.
Truly was a home away from home! I felt safe and it was a great location. The host was most receptive and returned responses promptly. Everything was as advertised - and all appliances were top notch and worked well. I stayed for several weeks and was comfortable. Bonus for me- I brought a bike and it was very easy to store on the back patio.
My husband, son, and I had a very relaxing time in the apartment. Our host, Charlotte, was cheerful, kind, and accommodating. We would choose to stay here again if we get to come back to D.C. in the future. Highly recommend!
Wonderful unit. Great location. Easy check in. We had a great time with our grandson.
Thank you

Reviewer Comments:
The unit was in a great location and spotlessly clean. We couldn’t walk anywhere or take the metro. But we did find the TV system very complicated and endlessly frustrating. And no one offered to help!
This basement apartment is in a lovely neighborhood. Everything you need is provided. The queen bed is very comfortable. Kitchen is well-appointed and stocked with coffee and tea. A Whole Foods is just around the corner.
Note that access to all Metro lines is just over 1/2-mile from the apartment. Wear your comfortable shoes and you'll be fine.

Comfortable, well-appointed unit. It was wonderful to find it had a fully equipped kitchen—not always the case with rental units. The outdoor patio was a great bonus!The location was outstanding! Walkable to everything! Or a short walk to the Metro for easy transportation anywhere. Great restaurants within a few blocks. And we loved that Whole Foods was two blocks away!
It was my first time in DC as a tourist. Love this city and VRBO. Relatively close to the very easy to use metro. We bought a 7 day pass. Host was responsive. 2 blocks to a Whole Foods. 3 blocks to ice cream. We love the Pearl Dive 6 block walk. Great back outside back patio on this place. Awesome TV. Great bed. Awesome leather recliner. Host got back to us timely via the messaging app in VRBO though we had zero issues. Queen size bed and bedding were awesome. Lower unit 5 easy steps down. Temp and comfort was awesome just empty tge dehumidifier to keep the humidity down. Very easy to do. Safe walking at night.
You won't find a better spot in downtown DC for the money! My wife and I stayed here for 5 days/4 nights and wanted to stay longer. It made us want to move there. It's exactly as advertised.
Perfect location! Bottom floor apartment of a beautiful brownstone on a quiet residential street on Embassy row downtown that's walkable to EVERYWHERE (we walked to the White House, the Monument/Mall, Museums, DuPont Cir.), etc. As for restaurants, you're walkable to the landmark ones you won't want to miss and close to awesome neighborhood spots. Huge TV (not that's what you do on vacation, but it was the Olympics, don't judge!), an office desk with a monitor I used for a work conference. Solid communication with Charlotte and they even arranged to get a parking pass for the street ahead of time! Compared to the other listings with $50/parking or NO parking options, this was easily the best bet and it paid dividends. We have every intention on returning.

Great location, beautiful home, appreciated attention to details from the owner, and being responsive to our requests and messages. Highly recommend. We will stay here again!
The apartment is very clean and in a nice neighborhood. Walking distance to restaurants. Homey feel and very comfy bed. The outer staircase is very narrow so bring your suitcases down after you. I had to leave early due to a family emergency so didn't get to enjoy my stay too much unfortunately. The only thing I didn't like was that the blinds need to stay shut due to the location. Clean, comfy, convenient, a good option for a DC visit.
