Fun, Comfortable Stay

This charming row house is a 10-15 minute drive from just about anything you want to do in DC. The beds are comfortable and the neighborhood was full of kids playing and dogs on walks. We loved the Old City Market & Oven for breakfast, groceries and a couple of great pizza dinners.

Great location and quaint row house. What I didn't notice initially when booking is no clothes washer/dryer, we just packed heavier than normal, rental rate for time period was slightly below average in the area which reflects lack of this amenity.

Great Home Away From Home

We enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend it for a family or small party. The house is centrally located and within walking distance of food stores, shops, gyms, and local restaurants. Our host was amazing - checking in at the start of our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. The home was also clean and cozy, with enough room for everyone. We had a great expderience and look forward to returning again soon!

Felt like living in someone's charming home

This quirky old purple house is clearly much loved with its murals and creaky floors. The neighborhood is so lovely, anyone would feel comfortable there. A work in progress with plenty of room for our group of three adults, though one bedroom is definitely for a smaller person.

Great location to the city, seemingly family friendly neighborhood, and just a few blocks from a grocery store.The check in process outlined in the “welcome email/in preparation for your stay email” did not align. The guest contact was unresponsive and my kids and I were stuck outside the house while I worked with the Evolve reps to even get an access code that allowed us entry.The beds were low quality, two rooms had beds that were SUPER firm and the twin bed is so poor quality you feel the bed frame thru the mattress- no box spring with any of them.The window coverings (blackout shades) in the master bedroom were great, but the other two bedrooms had flimsy ill fitting blinds that did not cancel out any light.The fixtures and linens in the house appeared clean, however the wood floors (which are beautiful) had dust bunnies whisking around and a food wrapper on the floor of the upstairs bathroom.

Convenient and comfortable home

The home was spacious for the three of us and had what we needed for the week. The home is a quarter of a mile from a subway stop and less than a mile from Union Station. Trader Joe’s is a quarter of a mile away. There’s a gate at the bottom of the stairway which kept our dog downstairs with us during the day. A great place to stay for a visit to DC!

Great home base for DC

We loved our stay. The NE area was beautiful. Lots of family and lots of dogs walking the streets. We had a good supply of nearby restaurants and union market had amazing breakfast options. We didn’t go for any other meal but I’m sure it’s good for that too. The rooms were tidy and well equipped. The house had everything we needed for a short trip away. I would certainly come back to this property again. Two very enthusiastic thumbs up.

The location is perfect! My husband, kids (11,13), our dogs and I were very comfortable here. Very cute house that had bedrooms for everyone. The neighborhood is very cute, so many dogs! We enjoyed taking our pups to the dog park right down the block. The Giant and Whole Foods grocery stores had underground parking so food shopping was convenient. We were a 15 minute drive from museums and monuments. When we drove down the block there was usually parking on the street right in front of the house, but it was also nice having the parking space option around back. The kitchen lacked a few cooking utensils, but we made it work. We bought and left a strainer for future guests to use.
