Our family loved our stay at The Piedmont on Alfred! The house was clean, easy arrival and departure and hosts were responsive to any questions we had. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of seating for our family of 6. We especially loved the location and easy walkability to Old Town and Metro stops. Of course, the house is very charming!

We enjoyed our stay and everything was as advertised. The location is fantastic within close proximity to everything. The area was easy to navigate in our car as well. The first night, we parked in a lot down the street. The second night, we risked it and left our car on the street. No ticket! There was always parking available in front of the house and there are several lots nearby that are easy as well. The owners were very communicative and made the check-in/out process really easy. Unfortunately, our daughter left her Kindle in her room. The owners were really helpful in coordinating with the cleaning crew to ship this to our home. Very appreciative of the great and friendly service. Old Town is beautiful and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

This home could not have been any better! Spent a long weekend with 6 others visiting DC & Alexandria. We used all the bedrooms so can attest to the comfort of the beds. Nice quality linens and plentiful towels. Rooms were large enough for seating and conversation groups. The highlight for this group was gathering in the private courtyard for coffee and breakfast. Home was very clean with nice amenities. Location is prime - just a few minutes (less than 2 blocks) to King Street and dining/shopping. Very easy - 10 minute - walk to Metro station. Safe neighborhood, pretty, and made to feel at home. Do yourself a favor and book this home when visiting DC area.

Beautiful stay in Old Town Alexandria
This home was such a treat! The neighborhood is idyllic, and the home itself was lovely. There are lots of stairs, so if you’re traveling with anyone with mobility issues, it might be challenging. The beds were very comfortable and the common spaces were perfect for family time.

Fun times in Alexandria!
My husband and I, our daughter and son-in-law, and their two children (2 1/2 and 5 1/2) spent a wonderful week in this lovely home. Location was perfect, just a short walk to King Street and all the fabulous shops and restaurants there. Took the train into DC as needed, an easy commute. The home was spacious, with 4 generous sized bedrooms (we only needed 3!). Kitchen was well equipped and we never ran out of clean towels, etc. Our hosts were very responsive to all questions and helped us navigate parking. Highly recommend this listing!

Old Town at it's best
Great location. Home is historic so you won't be sneaking out the front door without some creaking floors (important to note if you will be traveling with kids). We found Parking fairly easily within 2 blocks of the house. We had 4 of us for a ladies weekend and loved every minute of it... Highly recommend this property.
