This property was amazingly beautiful. They prepared for everything. The kitchen (Plates, cutlery, and snacks) and the Bathroom (towels, tissues) were fully stocked and made the trip very easy. The only gripe, if I had one, was that we had our parents, aged 71 and 68, and they had to navigate the flights of stairs.All in all the was a great property in an up and coming neighborhood.

I had a super comfortable stay. They went above and beyond with their accommodations and things that most places don’t think of when it comes to guests Daily needs.The location was great. The beds were so comfortable. The host really understood the little things that people need and probably forget when they travel.

Wonderful stay
Went to DC with a group of 6. My wife and I and our 4 kids aged 27 to 19. This house was perfect for us. The kitchen and bathrooms were great size. The beds were comfortable. There was a huge snack basket left, which was awesome. The house was close to several metro stations. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect VRBO
This property is large, remodeled and fabulous. It was in impeccable condition and welcoming upon our arrival. We had no issues with street parking and the location is safe, quiet, and close to everything. The beds are perfect after our long days sightseeing. The owner stocked a new keurig coffee pot that did not work upon arrival , and replaced it within the hour of us notifying them during a snow storm. This place and experience gets a perfect score.

Week in DC
Very nice accommodations and having a parking space was quite convenient. Well-supplied, very clean, and comfortable. There was construction going on across the alley which began early morning but that will be short-term and had nothing to do with this property. Highly recommend this property!

Lovely property close to H street & Union Market, but construction was a bit noisy.
Overall, this property was great for a girls weekend in DC! We wanted a place in a more residential area, but close enough to get to various things we wanted to do. We were able to walk down to Union Market for breakfast, walk down to H street for the festival, etc. The property was very clean, they have coffee, tea, and pastries available, and plenty of amenities you’d expect at a hotel. The place felt like a home away from home. However, one downside is there is construction happening behind the property and it was quite loud early in the morning, even on Saturday, so we couldn’t really sleep in. Also, the room with the bunk beds has a sunlight which makes it difficult for someone who is not an early morning person to sleep in as well. Probably great for kids to sleep in, but not adults after a night out on the town. But, overall, we would consider staying here again.

Perfect for a work trip
We booked and stayed at the property for a work trip for police week. The property was easily accessible with off street parking. The unit was very nice and clean. Nice extra touch of having snacks and refreshments after driving 12 hours to get there and not having time to get to a grocery store. Having coffee as our fingertips was a godsend. Uptown Market was a short walk away and had great food. The unit is about a mile walk to the NoMa Metro station, which we used every day we were in town. Would highly recommend and would stay here again. Everything we needed was provided (sheets/towels/TP/soap/etc) Thanks for everything! We enjoyed our stay very much.
