Perfect location, everything we needed was there, including basic supplies. Outdoor patio cozy and comfortable. (Just a heads up…the double doors in the large bedroom have a loose hinge (on the right, entering the room. Makes it challenging to close doors easily. Just needs a screw driver fix.

Perfect Location, Wonderful Stay
We (two couples in our late 60's) enjoyed our two night stay in this historic home. The host (Genevieve) was easy to communicate with. It is very well located and within walking distance to everything in historic Old Town Alexandria.

Wonderful Old Town location
We are a group of friends who stayed here for 11 days. It is a beautiful historic row house in Old Town Alexandria very close to King Street. We were convenient to the bus and the Metro. The kitchen was well equiped, the rooms were comfortable A/C was available. The bedrooms were good and the bathrooms nice. We walked a lot and the location was perfect for us. Would come again.

Great weekend getaway with easy access to DC!
This property is in great condition and was perfect for 4 adults for a long weekend! 2 separate bed and baths with a cute outdoor space for relaxing , and an ideal location within walking distance to nearby restaurants, shopping and waterfront. The host, Genevieve, went above and beyond for us and was very concerned about our comfort and made it super easy to check in. We highly recommend this place and would definitely book again!

Lovely Stay
What a treat to enjoy a historical home in charming Alexandria. The home is lovely and very comfortable and inviting. The kitchen is well-equipped and you have your choice of a Keurig or drip coffee maker. There is a very peaceful sitting room upstairs that we enjoyed in the mornings and evenings. The location is great- close to CVS, Starbucks, and some wonderful bakery’s. We walked to The Basilica of St. Mary for Easter Mass and a 15 min walk to Safeway for groceries. We took an Uber to the Metro station primarily due to rain and we trended 12k+ steps around the National Mall each day. We were blessed to time our visit during the Cherry Blossom festival- spectacular! I would recommend this property.
