Property was as pictured. Had a few issues upon first arriving. Mini split ac in den not working. I see now that a very recent renter mentioned it in their review. They quickly sent someone to look at it but they were unable to make the repair. A fan was left for us. There was a problem with mosquitoes at the entry door and they quickly came out and sprayed and left additional spray for inside use. There were minor issues inside of which I listed for them. I will never know if they are addressed. Location was favorable. 14 minute walk to the Metro. Great with communication and quick to respond.

We recently stayed in this apartment for a few days while visiting Washington, D.C. It was perfect for our family of five. The apartment was clean, well-maintained, and had just enough space for everyone to be comfortable without feeling cramped. What really made this place shine was the location. The neighborhood was fantastic - safe, walkable, and charming. The proximity to several restaurants made meal times much more convenient. Overall, a great experience and we would definitely stay here again!

4/10 Poor

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Communication
The apartment itself is okay, but there were some serious issues that made our stay less enjoyable. It's full of the cheap landlord specials you would expect from a flip. There were gaps in caulk throughout the apartment, a sizable gap in the front door which lets tons of mosquitoes in, and even the dishwasher had insulation sticking out. There was a 6" by 6" hole in the wall by one couch, and the water pressure in the shower was absolutely anemic which was incredibly disappointing. To top it off, the dryer was broken. We reported it to the property owner, and were told that someone would be out to check on it the next day. That person never showed up, so the laundry facilities we were counting on were worthless and threw a wrench in our plans. The location was okay though. It was a 15 minute walk to the metro which wasn't too bad.

The property was as described and pictured. Convenient location for attending a conference downtown! The apartment was clean and cozy, and more spacious than I anticipated! Easy communication and check-in/check-out process. As noted in the listing, there is some level of noise from footsteps/conversations in the unit above--just something to plan for if you are a light sleeper/sensitive to that kind of environment.

Overall a nice stay. Description of the property was accurate. It Had everything we needed and was close to all the historic sites. On the downside, WiFi service was poor. Had to use cellular network for our devices while in the apartment. Also not sure why there's no TV in the master bedroom

Great DC home!

This is a lovely home, exactly where we needed to be! The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet with plenty of available parking. The host/ management team was on top of every question I had. The home itself is exactly as described. The bed was very comfortable and the optional second bedroom was a game changer! Clean, well maintained- you won’t go wrong renting this home!

Great stay

The apartment was adequate for our needs. It was about a 15 minute walk to the nearest subway station. There were portions of the neighborhood that were sketchy. The accommodations were perfect for our needs. A king size bed for my wife and I, pull out full-size for my son. The 2nd sofa is not a pull out. Make arrangements if a 3rd bed is needed. Overall decent stay.

Lovely versatile space

This property is a real gem located in a convenient and lively neighborhood in DC. Clean, beautifully appointed and quite spacious, this basement apartment had everything our family of 4 adults could want. The pull out sofa and convertible beanbag bed offer versatile sleeping arrangements which are hard to find in many properties. The hosts were extremely responsive and great to work with. Overall an excellent choice for a visit to Washington.
