Great Property, Great Host
This is a very thoughtfully appointed property, from furniture choices down to soaps and lotions. And I've never seen a cleaner property...immaculate. It's very spacious, with large bedrooms, and plenty of comfortable seating. It was great to have room to spread out. It took my family just about 13 minutes to walk to the Metro station and we used it throughout our stay. The host Jo was very helpful with recommendations and very responsive. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic Find!
This space is amazing and hosted by an amazing woman.
My family of five was extremely comfortable in this large, well equipped space in a quiet/safe area. Everything was extremely clean and brand new. Very comfortable mattresses, linens and towels. Everything I could touch and see told me I was relaxing on vacation. Parking was incredible, the host emailed a parking pass to me and we were able to park immediately in front of the unit most of the trip. Walking to the Metro was easy so we didn't use the car much.
Within a couple of hours of booking I heard from the host asking about how I wanted the vacation to be. She was always available with fantastic suggestions and ideas for any tours, dining, travel... whatever. As I would decide what to do I really didn't use google, I just texted the host.
I had many concerns about visiting DC and the location and condition of this space along with the host made the vacation exactly how I wanted it to be.

Amazing Host
Joanna was the best host ever!!!! She was absolutely AMAZING! Our plane got in very late and she went grocery shopping for us to make sure we had food and drinks. She gave us suggestions about tourist attractions. She even made dinner reservations for us. Her home is immaculate! We felt very safe at this location. We also went on a walk around the neighborhood and everyone was so friendly. We are definitely staying at this location again. I wish every host was like her.

The host requires strict adherence to shoes off policy but that is for good reason, you won’t find a cleaner rental. Very roomy and beautifully decorated. Close to all the attractions and dining. We had a great time.

Better than the photos!
Great house for our stay in DC for the holidays - super clean, larger than it looks in the photos, well-stocked kitchen equipment, comfortable beds. There are some nice extras - the kind that really make a stay lovely, including throws for the sofa, a welcome basket, and more. Would definitely stay again!

I was looking for a 3bedroom but the third bedroom was lock off.
That was my only complaint but had I know it was going to be a 2 bedroom condo not a 3 I would not have rented.
