This was exactly as advertised and was such a comfortable, clean and homey apartment. It was just what we needed as our central point to visit many different parts of DC. The hosts also provided such nice little touches with coffee/tea, filtered water, body wash, etc... Thanks for such a great place to stay!
Our stay was awesome. Apartment was amazing, clean, and well stocked. We was able to walk around DC easily from our location. Lots of local restaurants and stores close by.
Apartment was cozy and comfortable. It had everything we needed. Location close to the Capitol, Union Station and the Metro was great for us. Also, plenty of good restaurants in walking distance.
Our hosts, Ellen and Bill, were lovely people. Their apartment was charming and homey.The bed was sooo comfortable!! Couldn’t have asked for anything more! Also great selection of reading material!
Great location with everything you could possibly need on site. Owners are super friendly and accommodating. The water pressure in the shower was amazing also. Parking was easy and you can walk easily to metro if desired.

Cheryl and her family were great guests. Our apartment was so neat after their visit that it didn’t look like anyone had stayed there! We’d be happy to host them again.
Location is absolutely brilliant - a quiet residential street, but 10-15 minutes walk to the Metro, and 30 minutes or so to absolutely anything. The flat was perfect for us as a base. The hosts have really thought of anything you could need - coffee, dishwasher tablets etc - and the kitchen was really well equipped. You could hardly do better.

Thanks to you and your family for being great guests. We loved your son’s and daughter’s guestbook comments about their visit to Washington. Come again!
This apartment was perfect, it is in a great location for getting around. Hosts were wonderful, and apt had everything we needed. Water pressure for the shower was great which was very nice after a long day of walking to relax in the hot shower. I would recommend this for anyone that wants to be close to all the monuments & museums

Monica and her husband were excellent guests in every way.
We absolutely loved this property and the location. The home had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and was conveniently located to all of the city attractions and transportation. We would definitely stay here again, and hope to do so!
The basement apartment’s location allowed us to walk easily to Union Station, if we needed to catch the metro, or to restaurants, bars, and groceries, if we wanted to take advantage of the neighborhood.The owners maintained great communication throughout. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Very convenient to where an event was we were going to, grocery store and local restaurants.
We were grateful for the location.
Nice place, good communication, clean, easy in and out.
This was our first family trip in a few years. The location is perfect and the apartment is spacious enough for 2 adults and a teen. We were able to order grocery delivery to have breakfast items in the apartment daily. We will for sure stay here again if we return to DC.

Mary Ellen and her family were excellent guests. We’re always pleased when guests appreciate the convenience of our apartment and enjoy their visit to DC.
This property is ideally located for a short and pleasant walk to Union Station to catch the Metro, or a nice walk to the US Capitol, Supreme Court, and Library of Congress. Grocery and dinning options also within walking distance. Nice, clean, and cozy place to stay, cook a meal, rest your feet, and recharge. Hosts were helpful and kind.
