The Unique Benefits at this Studio
Alexandria is such a historic town with so much to do. It is busy and yet quiet, often bustling but with so many places to relax. It is alive with the history of our nation around every turn, but with so many new and interesting facets that it keeps everyone happy.
Wonderful local artists with studios and stores in historic torpedo factory

A suburban Alexandria gem

Every time we find a VRBO gem I am hesitant to let the word out, but we tell everyone we know planning a visit to DC this is a perfect place for couples looking for an inexpensive, clean, comfortable and quiet alternative to a stale hotel. Willie and Linda couldn't have been more accommodating before and during our stay. We were even able to park our vehicle, put our bikes in the locked garage and extra luggage in the apartment a day before our scheduled four-day stay while we took the train to Baltimore for the night. Looking forward to a return visit.

It was our first experience in renting an apartment forour vacation and how wonderful it was! Willie and Linda were gracious hosts. The studio apartment was very cozy and quiet to our liking. This area was very convenient for the thours,public transportation, shopping and restaurants. Should we come to Washington, DC again, we would definitely use your apartment! Thanks so much for having us, Linda and Willie!

We were visiting our son in Alexandria and this little space was so much more comfortable than a hotel would have been. Cozy and quiet, it was a great place to come back to and relax after a day of buzzing around the big, crowded, busy city. There was always a parking space in front of the house on the street, no matter how late we came in. We slept well - and that's not always a given when you're away from home!

We had a very enjoyable stay at the Moncure's studio apartment. It was absolutely perfect! Quiet, peaceful, and very relaxing. Great neighborhood, and we felt very safe during our stay. My husband attended a conference in National Harbor and commuted everyday, and our son and myself were within walking distance to the metro and trolley. Definitely would stay here again. Thanks Linda and Willie!

We were attending a family wedding with our 13 year old granddaughter. We also were making the trip a study of our Nations Capitol, Mt Vernon, Gettysburg and all other stops that a student entering the eighth grade needs to know... Linda and Willie were wonderful hosts and their little home away was perfect. The Metro is close and handy, and you are far enough out you can also drive without trouble. "Old Town" was great and turned out to be a bonus we did not expect. We will not hesitate staying again when we are visiting the area.

The studio was perfect for two visitors. Willie was a gracious host and regaled us with dining suggestions and logistics for DC trips. The patio was lovely and secluded and we enjoyed visits from Shasta and the cats. I have already suggested your place to a couple who plan to visit next year. Thanks, Mike and Leslie

We loved staying in the Moncure's studio. It was super clean, comfortable, and they provided lots of nice extras that made the stay very enjoyable. It is conveniently located for exploring both Alexandra and DC. The charming neighborhood made the walk to the Metro a lot of fun. We would definitely stay there again!

My small family and I (husband and a toddler) stayed here in April. It was very clean, in a great neighborhood, and an easy walk to the metro. It was great going in to the city and then getting to come back to a place that felt more like home then a hotel room. Linda knew we had a toddler coming and left some kid movies, books, and plastic plates and bowls for him to use. And the back patio was a great place for him to stretch his legs while we unpacked. It was a great stay and I would definately reccomend it for a small family.
