This was a great little house for our 5 night stay. The beds were very comfortable and the house felt clean. Washer and dryer worked great. There wasn't a ton of table top/counter surfaces to put things on, in the bedrooms which would really be my only complaint. Great location with an easy walk to the Metro or into Old Town Alexandria. Harris Teeter and Trader Joe's are an easy walk too. Wouldn't hesitate to book it again if we're ever back in the area.

Great Stay in Old Town

This was the perfect location and size for our family of 4 to use as a base camp to explore greater DC. The walk to King Street or the Waterfront was 10-15 minutes or less. The Metro station was 10 minutes or less. There was a Trader Joe’s about 2 blocks away. Loved the location and the neighborhood vibe. Look forward to visiting again.

Great location

This property was great for a week-long stay. It had everything we needed and was a 10 minute walk to the metro. The house is in a cute little neighborhood and is walking distance (or a short drive) to lots of restaurants, bars, etc. We were worried about being able to find parking, but were able to get a spot on the street each night. The house itself is cozy, clean and well-stocked with the items we needed (kitchen appliances, towels, etc).

If you want to visit DC and not stay in DC, this place is perfect. Short walk to the metro, easy walks to all the places in Alexandria. It’s a perfect place to rest your head in between activities.

Charming

The home was as advertised, very charming in a nice neighborhood within walking distance to churches, shops, restaurants, and museums. It is well served by Uber; we kept getting the same driver. The house was very clean and well stocked with all of the essentials. I would stay here again when visiting the area.
