Kitchen was adequately equipped and the location is excellent. Furnishings are a bit dated but adequate but the bed was comfortable and the HVAC system handled the big swings in DC temps (30 degree swings during our April visit) very well keeping the apartment very comfortable. Host provided more than enough blankets. Apt could use a small dresser or some kind of shelving for clothes. In the bathroom water pressure was good and plenty of hot water.

The stay as a whole was generally good. The condo was as expected other than some fixtures hanging from the ceiling or off the wall, but we didn't have to interact with them directly so it was excusable. The main gripes with our stay was with the internet randomly turning off on our second night, and the water being turned off at 9:40am on the day of check-out. Wifi is excusable, we can just use data....but the water being turned off an hour and twenty before we are to check out at 11 is crazy! So much for washing dishes after breakfast and especially showering before we got on the road. It would have been so much better if we got a heads-up at least.

A quick overnight

We were in town for a concert with our kiddos. This condo was perfect for us. Its in a beautiful neighborhood. Quiet and very comfortable. Also, perfectly located for easy access to DC with lots of restaurants, cafes and coffee shops within walking distance. Our host was very kind and responsive when I had questions regarding check-in. Would absolutely stay here again if we have the opportunity to return.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy
The location was the only good thing about this place. There’s plastic on the couches that sit very low to the floor and are difficult to get up from. This is like a college rental. The minute I walked in we could hear everything the upstairs neighbors were saying and doing, not even during a party, just walking and talking. My elderly father was with me who has a heart issue and needs sleep so I immediately messaged the property owner asking for a refund since we could not possibly stay there. He told me to cancel, the app wouldn’t let me. He then stopped communicating with me. We left within minutes and had to pay for a hotel. The property owner never helped with anything.

This is a great place within easy walking distance of anything you would need including the Metro station. It was very clean and has everything you will need for your stay. The host is SUPER responsive, quick, kind and helpful. It's a good thing, because neither VRBO nor Expedia communicated anything about arrival or leaving directions. I would highly recommend this for your next vacation .

The apartment was clean, had a very large television, and the beds were comfortable. The location was excellent for a short walk to the Metro station for exploring DC. The only negative is that it’s an older home with 4 apartments, and we had people above us the final night of our stay, and you could hear ever step they took below where we were. If you’ve lived in an apartment or older home this probably won’t bother you…but if you’re sensitive to other noise this may not be the ideal place for you.

The area was nice and quiet and the apartment was neat and clean. My only concern was that parking is steep and a bit small for a larger vehicle. There were a few uncovered outlets and the kitchen light switch did not work properly. Other than that it was a nice stay with very comfy beds!
