My family and I spent four nights here on a sightseeing vacation. I can recommend this property without reservation. The property is extremely clean and the location can’t be beat. The neighborhood is safe and close to both the Mall and Georgetown. Whole foods and Metro both 3 blocks away. Highest praise: I would select this property again if I was in the District.

Outstanding!
We take an annual trip to DC each year and have stayed in several rentals. This is by far the best one. Andrew was an excellent host and this rental had all of the amenities needed for a great stay - coffee, spices, laundry detergent, all of the items one might need but doesn’t want to purchase for a short trip. Rental was clean and well maintained. Truly excellent! Thank you Andrew!

Perfect Location for Exploring DC
The stay was just perfect: location was on a leafy quiet street but just a few blcks away from the hustle and bustle. Metro station was an easy walk and it was just the ideal base for a trip to DC. Superb amenities and decor (modern chic) and the property has loads of character. The little touches were so nice such as welcome music playing on the alexa when we arrived and plush hand soap throughout. Andrew was so accomodating and answered all questions so quickly and was always on hand. He was the perfect host. We would definitely stay here again if we are lucky enough to return to DC! Highly recommend this property

Check in and out was seamless. The property was just as described, clean, and organized with plenty of space for us to comfortably enjoy our time. The location was fantastic - on a beautiful quiet, tree lined street - and very close to the metro. Lots of great restaurants and Trader Joe's within walking distance. Great coffee available for the morning too! We will definitely be recommending it to friends or family and will be bak ourselves.
