I hosted out of town guests and we enjoyed the house. Mark was attentive and helped us out with a TV glitch that we had. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well-stocked, and we had plenty of towels. We used the deck, and enjoyed the neighborhood, but felt that the yard could have been maintained better.

Wonderful place to stay

This house was located in a quiet, beautiful and friendly neighborhood. It took about 15 min to walk to the metro. There were several good restaurants between the metro and the house where we could stop to eat on our way back to the house after a day of sight seeing. Aldi and Walgreen were also very close to the house. We loved the coffee!! Mark was very attentive to our needs and quick to respond. We would most definitely stay in this house again!
