This place is not just beautiful, but also perfectly located, walking distance from Union train station. Restaurants, pharmacy, bars, everything is walkable. I would definitely recommend it.
This might be one of the coolest and most thoughtfully curated short-term rentals I've booked. You can tell the owners take a ton of pride in their property. This is not just a landlord rental special. Everything was perfect and well-decorated. The kitchen is extremely well stocked, which I appreciated as we cooked several meals. The patio is quiet and spacious, and the bedrooms are all well-sized for DC. As we needed to spend most of our time at The Hill, this location was also ideal. I will absolutely be booking another stay here. Thank you so much!
Overall, we appreciated the cleanliness and comfort of this vacation rental. This is a very nice place! One small improvement could be made: each of our aunties nearly slipped in the hall bathtub while taking a shower; the owner should consider providing a suction mat to prevent falls. We did have one stress point: obtaining a parking permit for our rental car, since the owner clearly states they will not print permits and our flight into DC was arriving late at night. Solution: the first night of our stay we found paid parking a few blocks away and the next day visited a UPS Store in the area to have the permit printed.
We had a lovely stay in this home. It was comfortable, had a nice little back yard, and was just a quick walk to the train station and several small restaurants.
The neighborhood was clean and quiet. I must say this home has just about anything you might need to enjoy your stay including plenty of cooking utensils and well as spices, sugar, coffee etc.
if I’m being picky I would say it would be nice to have a railing going all the way from the front door down the steps to the street. The last few steps are slanted and slightly difficult for older folks with luggage. However, it was a great place and I would highly recommend it.
We stayed here for a week for a family trip to DC. Easy walk to and from Union Station, great neighborhood near restaurants and markets. *if* you are travelling with middle school or high school age soccer players, there is a terrific school field a block and half down the street that is open. This saved our 14 year old, who played pick-up with local club and used it for practice every night of our visit!
We were visiting our son who lives in the city and really loved this property. It was our first time in Union Station area and it is very nice. The house was just beautiful and the renting company was top notch w/ instructions and answered all of my questions!

It's a cute, classic older home in DC that has been updated. Owners have a lot of smaller supplies/ pantry items in the kitchen which is nice.
But, there's a lot of stairs. If you have mobility issues or trouble lifting your luggage, it could be a problem. Also, the couch in living room has feather filled cushions which could be an allergy issue.
We stay here for a week long trip to DC. The house was great with plenty of space for the 6 of us. It was clean, had all the amenities we needed and a really nice outdoor patio area. It's a really nice and quiet neighborhood with coffee shops, convenience stores, restaurants and grocery stores all within a couple of blocks. It is about a 1.5 walk to the capital building. We walked every day to the National Mall area to the Museums and Monuments with an infant and had no issues. It's a safe walk through nice neighborhoods and parks all the way there. It was perfect place to stay for in the our trip. As a side note, the pull out bed in the office/bedroom is quite comfortable. I has a memory foam mattress on it. It was the one thing I was concerned about when booking, knowing I need all 3 bedrooms. We did have trouble getting the parking pass. Part of the issue was we got a rental so I couldn't deal with the pass ahead of time. The host was very responsive, but we just couldn't get it to work through the parking pass website. The host offered to get the pass for us if would send them our vehicle info, but by then I found convenient paid parking just a block from the house and chose to just keep our vehicle there. I would strongly recommend it. It is close, in the alley just a block away and is in and out parking, meaning you would always have a parking space waiting for you upon your return. I found it on spothero for 60 for the week.
