This is a lovely home in a beautiful neighborhood. There is convenient connection to Alexandria and DC Metro transportation and to I-495. The host was friendly and proactive in communications. Check-in and checkout was a breeze.

Property was located in a residential area and was clean and quiet. The business district with many stores and restaurants was about a 20 minute walk away and the Old Town area was also within a short walk.The house was clean, comfortable and well stocked with supplies, but a toaster would have been nice to have. The beds were warm and comfortable.We enjoyed our stay in Alexandria.
