Close to shopping and food. Nice neighborhood. Water pressure was terrible and check in was a bit of a struggle. Otherwise it was a good stay. Plenty of room for everyone.
It was the perfect location for our frequent trips into DC. We had all of the accommodations we needed for a family of 6. The check-in process was easy and Iâd highly recommend this property for your next visit to the city.
Some insects were in the home, older home doors were tricky to work. Some of the pots were very old and the plates were very thin and cheap, broke one and replaced with a much better plate for $3. Old house smell needed to light candles to improve smell.
Meh... place was pretty dirty and not well maintained. The place is subleased about 3 times before it gets to VRBO listing. This made the check in process horrible to deal with as we never dealt directly with the property owner. I'm pretty sure it was managed by AI as I received multiple text messages in the middle of the night. Very annoying...Water pressure was dismal. For example it would take about a minute to fill up a 32oz water bottle from the refrigerator. We won't talk about what it was like to shower! The exterior doors don't seal. Trash was left on the driveway. Someone really got after the light switch covers and cause them to warp. You can see from the pics the overall state. The place really needs some TLC and a paint job to bring it back around.The location and history were great. Talking with one of the neighbors, we learned that these rows of homes were built in the '40s to house Pentagon workers. The construction was pretty uniqueIt does have central HVAC for the basement and 1st floor. The 2nd floor rooms have loud window units installed. Made sleeping a little difficult. We'd probably pass on this one again.
We stayed for two weeks at this property over the holidays and it was perfect for our needs. We have two kids under 12 and they loved the basement bedroom with two large beds and their own bath with remodeled shower. The location is very convenient to anywhere in NoVA and DC, and having a Target and grocery store across the main street was very helpful. When we had one small issue the property management responded immediately and worked to resolve it same day.
PROS: LOCATION!, remodeled kitchen and baths, free street parking with no residential restrictions as well as back parking, Roku TV, fast wi-fi, easy electronic door lock, new laundry machines, fenced back yard, very responsive property management
CONS: Lacking some kitchen cooking utensils, older pots and pans could use replacing, kitchen table chairs are fabric and stained
The check in process was easy and explained well in the welcome email. The property was adequate but not super clean, the backyard furniture was old and unsafe. There were new chairs there but not assembled. Disappointing. The front porch was dirty as well and the yard area was unkempt. The kitchen had no sponges or extra paper towels.
Easy Lyft rides to DC and Iâd town.
The last night we heard fighting in the house next door and ended up calling the police⊠the walls in this property are thin. No one slept much the last night.
