Ideal Stay

I don't think we could have found a more ideal stay. Easily navigated everything to do and see within a 30 minute walk even with a 3, 7, and 9 year old. Luisa & Gonzalo were SUPER RESPONSIVE and very helpful and, even better, made the checkout process as seamless as can be. We really enjoyed this stay and wouldn't hesitate to return.

It was a wonderful stay here. The location was perfect and the house was a good fit for us. The owner was a great help and answered quickly. My one complaint is there was an odor around the kitchen sink area.

Family place to stay

This was all about location, comfort and location. We were so close to everything for must see. In the evening being by the warf was fun and added another place to hang out. We had smaller children with us and they didn’t want to leave the kids room. Place had everything you could possibly think off that you may need during your stay. This was excellent place to stay. Next time we have family come visit we hope this will be available for us to stay in.

DC Adventures

Great location! A few blocks away from Safeway, the Waterfront Metro Station and the Wharf District. The host was very responsive, through VRBO messages and direct text. It is three stories, which I didn't understand from the listing or the photos. The beds are firm, which I didn't know my back would like (but it did) and they seem smaller than the queen beds promised in the listing. A solid middle class neighborhood, where the real people live. The unit is a little warn and a little less shiny than the pictures, but completely serviceable. Be sure to visit the duck pond on your way to Safeway. I can highly recommend the Metro - it's clean and safe. We took it everywhere including to Mount Vernon, on a 7 day short trip pass. Can recommend Toastique restaurant on the Wharf and Founding Farmers near the White House (try the Beignets!). Recommend visits to Arlington National Cemetery (but not on Memorial Day weekend or when it's hot), Mount Vernon, the Renwick Gallery and the National Museum of African American History and Culture (they have a great restaurant with food true to the culture). We went to the White House, but there was a lot of line-standing in the heat, a big crowd, and four security checkpoints. The tour is unguided and was very brief, because it was hard to get close to the wall displays because of the crowds and because I was wilted and thirsty.

Sibling retreat

Three of us stayed here and have nothing but compliments. I've been going to DC for nearly 50 years and never knew that the Wharf area was developed 20 years ago now with shops, food and amazing architecture. Great location.

The perfect location!

We had an absolute blast in DC and I truly believe we can attribute that to how convenient our house was to everything! We could literally walk everywhere, but the parking spot was also a huge help when we did want to drive. A truly great week and a truly great house!

Perfect townhome for a family, great location

We loved staying at this townhome. It was perfect for our family of 5. It's a cozy home, with all the amenities, appliances and kitchen gadgets a family would need. Located by the wharf, only 5-minute walk to all the restaurants and shops there. Just 17-minute walk to the national mall. We left our van at the private parking spot provided and haven't had to return to it until our vacation was over. Kids loved the house and the tour of DC. 2 twin beds in bedroom 3 are actually a bed and a trundle, which worked out great for our boys. Thank you Luisa and Gonzalo.

Great Location

We stayed 9 nights. The location is ideal. The place does need a fresh coat of paint in the high traffic areas, and for the price, definitely some upgrades to the upstairs bathroom. The bathrooms are small but this was expected. Beds are comfortable, but the upstairs air conditioners are very loud. The kitchen was wonderful and well stocked. Gonzalo is great! He’s attentive but not overly and very helpful.

Great location

Overall, we had a great stay. Location was excellent for seeing most sites in DC. The unit worked very well for our group of 4 adults and 2 teens. The owner was very accessible. He responded to all our requests and was very accommodating. Some minor issues to note, AC units on the top floor were noisy but they did work to keep it cool. The kitchen was generally well stocked but could use a larger frying pan and some measuring cups were missing but we were able to make do. We would be happy to stay there again.
