Got a parking spot right out front, no issues. Beds were very comfortable; place was spotless and as described. Owner was easy to reach and answered all my questions. Union Market was a cool area to hang out in and we enjoyed one of the owner's recommended restaurants. All in all - a great stay!

What a great experience! She was amazing about checking on us throughout our stay to make sure everything was going well and that we had everything we needed. I asked if there was a blow dryer, and even though there wasn’t one, she went out and got one for the house. The place had everything you would need- it was clean, cozy, and comfortable. The location was also great, especially if you plan on using public transportation, which is what we used during our trip. If I come back again, I already know where I’ll be staying!

We had a fantastic time in DC. The apartment was perfect for us, me , my husband and young adult son, gave us plenty of space and still be together instead of getting a hotel room or 2 separate rooms, definitely saved money! The kitchen seemed to be all setup to cook a meal but there were way too many restaurants to explore, the refrigerator worked well for our leftovers. The neighborhood was quiet and plenty of street FREE parking. The apartment was clean, beds were comfortable and bathroom was sufficient and most of all important…the air conditioner delivered !Close to Union Market and other eateries and bars. Went to a National Ballpark, HopOn HopOff and lunch in Georgetown. We definitely will return, the host was very helpful and was easily accessible.

DC Trip

We came in to attend a concert at the Nationals Park. This was 15 minutes away from the ballpark, right next to Gallaudet University. The apartment was clean and had the essentials. Lena, the property manager, was great to work with. We had a good time!

What a lovely place to stay and an absolutely wonderful host. The place was spotless and quiet. The host responded to messages almost immediately. What more can you ask for? Well, the host had Kurig available and brought more when we used what we had. She stopped after work, which was 9 PM, to help get us onto a free TV network. And she actually took us to Gallaudet, where we were taking classes, the last day because someone was coming in and there was no place to leave our luggage after check-out time. The class did not end until 3. This was just a great experience. Particularly ideal if you want to be near Gallaudet University.

We travelled via public transport on our first visit to USA and this was our first stop. Property about 15mins walk from NoMa Gadaullet station, so we could access centre of DC easily. A pleasure to walk in and find such a clean property with everything we needed for four nights. We enjoyed hosts recommendations for Cane and Ethiopic, nearby restaurants. Supermarkets in walking distance. Unfortunately some museums shut due to Federal Governments shutdown. Recommend the Holocaust museum, (free) and Mount Vernon, (accessible by public transport).

Great place to stay clean and reasonably priced. Found some nice restaurants nearby and had food delivered via Walmart. We paid less in uber fees then we would have renting a car sightseeing DC. Now's a great time to book it's America 250!
