The place was very cozy with lots of special touches. The host had included several amenities in case we had forgotten anything at home. The coffee bar was excellent! The unit was conveniently located and we were able to walk to the grocery store and the metro link. We even had some trouble getting on the wifi so I contacted the host and the issue was resolved within a short amount of time.

Love this place! It was exactly what our small family of four needed for a weekend soccer tournament in VA. Kitchen was fully stocked. Everything was super clean. Shopping nearby to grab some groceries to make a quick dinner. Even laundry to clean up those dirty soccer uniforms for the next day!

Caveat: we checked in around 9:30pm and left at 8:00am, spending just one night.Pros: This unit was generally as advertised. It is a very tiny space but very clean and well appointed (had ice in freezer, coffee available, hair dryer, and packaged toothbrushes for example). The bed was pretty comfortable. There is a washer/dryer full size in the unit and detergent is provided. The patio area would be nice in the daytime. It is very close to a Metro Station and even closer to restaurants, grocery and drug stores. The bed setup is a full-size bed with a twin bunk up top, all in one room. Be sure this will work for you.Cons: It can be hard to find in the dark. It is a bottom/basement apartment in a 3 level garden-style building. The shower had open bottles of shampoo and body wash and it was very clear that when not rented, someone lives here. The shower head is the rainfall style and it didn't really work. The handheld shower head couldn't be used in the holder because it only pointed to the wall. So basically you have to take a shower holding the handheld shower head, which is awkward.Conclusion: I wouldn't spend more than one or two nights here at the most but for overnight prior to or after a flight, it's sufficient and convenient.

Great Place to Stay!

Just like the pictures! Cute little condo with high end appliances and attractive decor. Very clean and more than well stocked with extra towels, sheets and blankets. Ana had so many snacks, drinks and breakfast foods already there for us. Whatever else we wanted we could easily get at the shopping center just around the corner. We did initially have trouble finding the place (in the dark) but Ana responded immediately and even came over to personally guide us there. Once we knew where it was, we never had trouble finding it for the remainder of the stay. Highly recommend this host and property!

Cute place!

The property is very cute and stocked with so many extras. The special touches were very thoughtful. We weren't sure what to expect because the host had not sent us check in directions, nor responded to email. She explained that she lost her phone. Other than that little hiccup, it was a great stay.

This place was the best in everything.

It was so well-equipped that I could stay here just by bringing my body and clothes. Not to mention the kitchen, the bedroom, living room, bathroom, and laundry room were all filled with the host's touch. The kitchen had an Americano machine, an espresso machine, and various cooking utensils, as well as carbonated water, various snacks, and milk. The bathroom amenities were also varied, including dental floss and cotton swabs. There was the latest LG washing machine and dryer, and laundry detergent. The bed was also very comfortable. I highly recommend this place. I had a cozy and comfortable stay.

Exceeded expectations!

Very nice space, looks like just renovated. Brand new kitchen appliances, great shower, convenient bed set up in the bedroom. Our family of 4 wife slept on big bed, 6 year old in the bunk, 3 year old on the trundle, and me on the couch. The TV in the main room is about 65 inches. Provided snacks and some sodas, plenty of towels, pillows, and blankets. Host was very easy to contact and responded very quickly. A grocery store is in walking distance and train station is a mere 2 minutes driving. When/If we come back to DC, we would most definitely stay here again!

Quaint and well-equipped condo

Older daughter and I were in town for family member wedding. We chose this listing because it looked very inviting and it was very convenient to the West Falls Church metro stop. We were not disappointed! After I initially screwed up finding the place, check in was exactly as advertised. The host was very responsive in helping us find the right apartment and in answering questions during the stay. We did a lot of cooking and the kitchen had everything we needed. Huge TV in the small living room made for a couple of great movie nights and the bunk beds were comfy. My only nitpick is the bathroom. It lacks surfaces/cubbies for storing toiletries. I’d definitely recommend this property!

Wonderful stay and an incredibly thoughtful host

The apartment is well appointed and has parking spots very close to the apartment. We had no problem with sound except hearing a few footsteps from the upstairs apartment. The place itself is very comfortable and incredibly well organized with labels on most things. I’ve never experienced this in a rental property before but the host had drinks and snacks available. You didn’t need to worry about forgetting, washing stuff, shower stuff or toothbrushes etc, she had it all!! My nearly 4 year old loved the bunk bed, it worked really well for our family. We noticed that under the main bed was a trundle bed, which is another great option. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and the extra effort the host went to make it feel homely and make it so easy was a huge cherry on top.
