This apartment provided ample space for our family of four. It was very well decorated, cleaned, and maintained. It does not feel like a basement-- it has a windows in multiple rooms, a separate entrance in the front of the building. The neighborhood is cute, safe, and walkable, and the parking spot was convenient. We would stay there again.

The Property was very clean and exactly like the pictures. The hosts were very good with communication and detailed about what to expect parking in DC. Our family tests the limits of travel, since we come with small children, an older child with special needs, and all the equipment and health supplies that entails. We had a very comfortable stay, were able to figure out metro travel with our circus, and liked the street on which we were located. The only challenge with a large family is multiple people wanting to use the restroom at the same time, but that’s not unusual for traveling with kids. We would stay again if we find ourselves back in the area.

Great location, great stay

We were very pleased with our stay here. The owners provided a lot of info on the area and recommendations for places to eat. Close to public transportation. I do believe, however, that photos of the property, don’t do it justice. It was roomier than I anticipated, which was much appreciated as we were home-bound a little more than we expected it to be. I’d rent this place again in a heartbeat
