We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was a cute place with everything we needed. So convenient to walk to the metro station and to Old Town/Waterfront. Kelly, the host, was very responsive to any questions we had. We would stay here again and recommend it to friends and family.

Clean and Cozy

Had a wonderful stay with my partner and our two young boys(13&3). The apartment was easily accessible and close to everything we wanted to visit including the National Harbor in Maryland and Washington DC. THE HOhome itself qas so clean and cozy and had all the essentials in the aprtment for our use. Our 13 yr old slept on the pull out couch in the living room and the rest of us in the bedroom basement which was wonderful for privacy when needed. Checkout was easy and communication with owner was easy as she was always checking on us making sure our stay was everything we needed.
