We had a fantastic stay! The place was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well-located. Being above a wine bar, you do hear some typical city sounds, but nothing disruptive. The nearby metro made getting around incredibly easy, and having a grocery store just one block away was a huge plus. We’d definitely stay here again!
The place was amazing. Better even than we anticipated. The location was amazing, including its proximity to numerous fabulous restaurants. And the Maxwell wine bar underneath was the perfect nightcap to every day that we had there. Additionally, the host was amazing. She checked in on us almost daily and asked if we needed anything. Of course we didn’t because the place was so great, but it was nice that she did that we would definitely go back!

Great location, very clean. Master bedroom gets a bit cold compared to the rest of the apartment. Would definitely rent again when in town.
We had a lovely stay at this property over the Thanksgiving holiday. The accommodations were perfect for our family. It also was a great location to be able to get to various parts of the city within a short distance.

Hi Edward, Thank you for your feedback, we're happy to know you were pleased with the space and hope you enjoyed your time exploring! It was a pleasure to host you and we hope to have another opportunity to welcome you back in the future.
Perfect spot for our week in D.C.! The apartment was spacious, clean, and comfortable with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The open kitchen and living area were great for cooking and relaxing, and Maxwell wine bar downstairs added a fun, European vibe. Location felt safe and was an easy 15–20 minute walk to restaurants, sights, and Le Diplomate. The host was very responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay here again!
Just a great place in a great location. Would definitely repeat.

Everything as described, We liked the area and with 20 -30 min walk you can reach all major places. The was some noise (more from cars in the street than from the wine bar, but did not disturb us.
We enjoyed our stay very much! The apartment was cute and clean and communication was great.
