Quiet neighborhood yet along the bus line and close to the Van Ness metro. On the top floor, felt private and cozy. Comfortable furnishings, elegant bathroom. Host was very timely with responses and overall helpful.
It was a great pleasure hosting David. Happy to host you again !
Thanks

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
It is a very quiet location, not suitable for anyone with physical impairments as you must climb two flights of stairs and one flight of a spiral staircase that is very narrow. Host was very accommodating of our request after our arrival but didn't appear to be prepared for us in advance. Over all our stay was fine but I am not sure luxury is a good discriptive word for it.
The property was awesome. The owners were always kind and available. The place slept three comfortably and the small kitchenette was great. The location on Porter street was also in a great neighborhood.

It was a real pleasure hosting Barbata; she has been a great and very pleasant guest. We will happily host her again.
Great location. We didn’t need a car and the bus stop was very close so we could move around the city easily. We didn’t mind the stairs and space was lovely. Host was fantastic and the communication was excellent.
Good location close to Georgetown, American University in a safe, upscale neighborhood. Apartment was bright, airy and quiet. Would stay here again when visiting friends in Georgetown
I loved staying in this penthouse modern rooftop. The private entrance is a plus but even the main entrance is semi private. The space was well designed and comfortable. Loved my stay here.
We had a wonderful stay at this well appointed suite. No problem finding parking. Be aware that there are lots of stairs and a spiral staircase to get to the suite.
This property is a small penthouse in a safe, quiet neighborhood near, but not in the middle, of Washington. Transportation and nice neighborhood bistros and shopping are nearby. The property owners live onsite and are sensitive to their guests needs. The accommodations are spacious with everything one needs, and more.
Thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Washington DC.
Restaurants, subway and grocery store were all within a 10 minute walk from the apartment. Great location overall.
Apartment is only accessible via a narrow spiral staircase, so is not easily accessible for all.
