It was a great stay. The property is just as described, very comfortable and kid friendly with little touches like stools in the bathroom and kids plates and cups. The property is in a great location for walks to King Street and to drive over to National Harbor.
The property was clean and in a great location . We walked to restaurants and shopping on king street. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need . Would definitely recommend !!
The house was amazing and so cute. It had everything you could need, from shampoo, conditioner, laundry soap, dryer sheets, toilet paper, paper towels and k-cups. We flew in and stayed for a week and we hardly had to buy anything, but food. The house was also very clean. Communication was outstanding. The neighborhood is quiet and very cute. We were able to walk to eat and shop as well as the metro very easily. We highly recommended staying here and we would definitely stay again.
Very comfortable and spacious house! We were so busy with our training that we didn't get to explore the area but the neighborhood is ridiculously cute!
Property was as advertised. Very close to King Street and lots of restaurants, bars, shopping, etc. Whole Foods is an easy walk or quick car ride. We had an excellent visit and would stay here again. Super close to Washington DC attractions and airport.
I was very pleased to find this property in Alexandria. I was attending a conference near by and this place was perfect. The property is immaculate and beds are comfortable. Communication with the host was excellent as well. Looking forward to staying again in future.
Loved the location. The property was a great place to meet up with old friends & reconnect.The house was well appointed with everything we needed. Very clean & no problems checking in.
We stayed in Alexandria during a family Spring Break trip. The property was exactly as advertised and the communication from the host was excellent. The location was perfect for exploring Alexandria and DC - short walk to Metro, King St., Whole Foods. Plenty on on-street parking if you have a car.
We could not have been happier to have chosen this house for our trip to the DC area. The cleanliness and quality of the house and all the appliances, furniture, beds etc was beyond expectations. Location was really nice and proximity to King street and all old town has to offer made this house a place we will be coming back to.
My husband and I enjoyed our stay in the house. It was nicely updated, very clean, and well supplied. We used the on street parking pass with no problems finding a spot. We also walked to the King Street Metro to go to Washington, and used the King Street Trolley in Old Town. The host also did a great job communicating everything we needed to know, and we had no problems. I recommend staying in Old Town in this lovely house!
My family and I stayed at this property for eight days as part of my wife's 50th birthday celebration in the D.C. area. The property is very comfortable and close to King Street, where there is plenty for everyone to do. My kids went to the "Call Your Momma" bagel shop every morning, which is two blocks away. Communications with the property owner was clear and fast -- really appreciated that. I would definitely stay here again.
We are a family of four that stayed for a week. The house was very nice and just as advertised. The location is wonderful. Two blocks off Kings Street and an easy walk to restaurants. Easy access to the King Street Metro. Host was wonderful as well. Great communication and very responsive. Overall, wonderful trip.
My family of seven had the pleasure of calling this place home for a few days while visiting Alexandria. The location and property were as good as it gets. Everything in the property is well laid out, clean, and inviting. We'll be saving this property for future family visits!
From start to finish this was just about as superb an experience as one could wish for. Finding this gem of a spot on VrBO and reaching out, found rapid and complete response from the hosts. Checking in was a breeze, all the pre-check in information was spot on (including some great tips about things nearby). The home is appointed beautifully, incredibly comfortable and the lushness of the towels alone was delightful. Definitely bookmarking this spot and plan to visit again!
Property good- very walkable.Had issue with blinds in bunk room that owner offered to fix.We thought that the unit needed tissues, a blow dryer in second bathroom, small bars of soap .
The property was perfect for our family. We were allowed to check in early and communication responses from the owner was always quick. Great location, within walking distance to groceries (Whole Foods), CVS, King St Metro, Old Town history, and restaurants. We walked everywhere as a family and felt safe day/night. Residence had everything to cook meals, entertainment with boardgames, TV, and bathroom amenities were great! When we come back to DC for another trip (you honestly can see everything in one trip), we will be staying here again. Stop searching and book this property, you won't regret it.
