Kitchen could use better (larger) coffee maker for people today like their coffee.We could not get the dishwasher to work above... the one below, it did not drain. Might be us not figuring it out... so we washed by hand.Very charming... historic... quiet location to metro was perfect for what we were doing in D.C. The walk to The Capitol was easy and not very far, restaurants along the route were of interest. The National Guardsmen and women were extremely informative and nice to talk to.

Neat house in a great neighborhood

We spent a week exploring DC and this location was perfect. Easy walk to Capitol Hill, metro station about a block away, and plenty of restaurants & coffee shops close by. The house is charming & comfortable. The owner is exceptionally accommodating.

We had a wonderful stay at the Victorian on Capitol Hill. As said in other reviews the location was excellent, close to the Metro and walkable neighborhoods with charming rowhouses. The apartment was very clean, with a comfortable bed and great living and kitchen spaces. Would definitely stay here again!

Nothing like Independence Day in the Nation's Capital!

Great start to summer vacation - great location, great hosts, great rental! Walking distance to the Capital, White House, Mall, museums, and memorials. We parked the car and didn't drive until we left. Good restaurants nearby but the kitchen has everything you need and the back porch is great for a late night drink. We'll stay here on our next visit to DC.

Beautiful street and great location very close to the subway. Trader Joe’s was right there by the subway stop and Eastern market. The space was nice and comfortable. The only thing that wasn’t 5 stars was the dishwasher didn’t work the best.

Response from VrboOwner on 13 Apr, 2025
Thank you for your phone call and for sharing that you had a wonderful stay with us during your visit to Washington, DC. You had stated that you chose our guest house because of all the FIVE-STAR reviews we've received, so we are curious why you gave only a four-star rating with the comment "no real problems." You didn't tell us of ANY problems you were having aside from you getting lost upon arrival in town, not knowing what buttons to push to make the television work, and not reading our instructions on how to lock your door. We thrive on the FIVE-STAR reviews we earn through accommodating our guests and making sure you are as comfortable as possible. We regret that you had any problems at all, and hope that next time you visit we earn another FIVE-STAR review from you...

Location! Location! Location! Being a block from the Metro station and surrounded by restaurants, shops, and a Trader Joe’s made this stay easy, efficient and comfortable. Communication was smooth and apartment was well appointed and comfortable. Definitely will stay here again.

The listing is 1000% accurate, and the reviews about about the host Kirk are even more accurate. Kirk is very hospitable very knowledgeable about the area and things you want to do and how to do them. Very clean nice little cottage feel, steps to the metro to get anywhere you need to go. Nice area good restaurant. It was very quiet when we stayed
