Historic Old Town, Walk to Metro/King St, Dogs OK!

Thanks so much for your kind review Cameron. Makes us so happy to hear you felt at home, that’s the #1 most important thing to us. We are biased, but we chose an home in Old Town in part because it just felt peaceful, homey….. the kind of feeling that comes from walking the same streets people have walked for hundreds of years. We are convinced all the dogs really contribute positively to the energy as well. Pleasure to have had you all and look forward to welcoming you again in the future!

Thanks so much for your kind review Laura! So glad it was a great home base for your family during your visit. As they say in the marketing materials, Old Town is just outside D.C. , but feels like a world away. We love the ability to quickly hop into the District and then come home to a more relaxing environment. It’s an honor to have been part of your family’s memories and hope to see you all in the future….there’s always something new and cool going on. You can live here years and still not see it all!

Thanks Jacque for your kind review. Glad you found it perfect for your getaway and hope to see you all back with us soon! We allow up to 4 adults or a family of 6 with younger kids as the apartment is a bit larger than 2 standard hotel rooms in our area and we have had several larger groups find it more cost effective and convenient than being separated into 2 different places, particularly those who are of the same family. That being said, we recognize space needs and preferences are different for everyone which is why we describe the apartment and it’s sleeping accommodations (cal king bed and queen bed along with kids cot/Playard) in detail including a floor plan so each group can ensure it meets their needs before booking with us.

Hi Angela glad you enjoyed the location and apologize for your frustrations. Had we known of any during your stay the couple of times we checked in with you we would have gladly done what we could. I know that we responded within minutes to set the temperature to your comfort level for the entire stay. While it can be confusing with the way VRBO lists items, we clearly have in our description that it is one primary bedroom and that the Murphy bed is in the front sitting area. We include lots of photos so guests can see the layout including that the front sitting area with the Murphy bed is an open area to the kitchen. For the patio, under our listing in the “guest access” area we state that the upstairs floors and patio is exclusively for our family’s use, we also do not show any interest art of the patio or those areas in the listing pictures. As I’m sure you can understand, with a shared listing that is our primary home, we need some private areas. Concerning the noise upstairs, as stated in the listing, we have put significant money into sound reducing insulation, but reducing all sound travel is nearly impossible. The listing is clear that the owners live on the upper floors and the English Basement Apt, shares, walls, ceilings, floors, etc., and that noise can be a possibility. Moving forward, we will ensure that our listing is more clear to future guests about the possibility of noise travel.

Thank you so much for your kind review Nancy! It was a pleasure to have you all.
