Great DC Weekend

The apartment was perfect for our weekend in DC. We walked from the apt to the national Mall and home from a Nats game. Also, very convenient to a metro stop. Be sure to check out The Roost for dinner!

Nice place for a weekend away

The location was great (near the metro and walking distance to convenience stores and restaurants). Space was perfect for our family. The only negative was not having coffee, but we knew that going in, so it was easy enough to buy k-cups when we arrived. The host was very responsive to communication. Overall, a very good experience.

Convenient location and fantastic host

Very pleasant stay in a quiet neighborhood in a very clean apartment. 5 minutes walk to public transport, easy parking situation, and restaurants walkable in a 1-mile radius. We had a partial power outage in the neighborhood and the host responded right away and was super helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Location for Us

We were less than a block away from the family we were visiting which was perfect. The size of the apartment was good. We appreciated the option for the 5th guest as we have 3 teenagers. Will definitely use it again for future visits.

Mother Daughter trip

Listing was just as discribed, very clean and comfortable. Parking can be tricky, but that was expected in D.C but we managed to find a spot just a few doors down. Couple living upstairs but never heard them and I hope they never hear us. Things are close enough to walk to, food, stores etc just use Google maps. Would stay again.

Great Place

It was great. If you go, know that the door is at street level kind of tucked in between buildings. We were looking at doors with steps. This sounds stupid I know but keep it in mind.

Exactly what we needed!

We were very satisfied with our decision to stay in this cute VRBO during our five days in Washington, DC. Everything was exactly as advertised. It was less than a five minute walk to the Metro, which was incredibly convenient. The free parking pass was perfect. We parked our car right outside of the property and never drove once since the Metro was so close. The place was very clean, and our communication with May was constant and easy. The neighborhood was cute and safe. Five stars all around!

I couldn’t access the property! I was given the wrong code. Every time I tried to enter it, the alarm went off. I tried to call the host but the number was disconnected.

Cute, great location, but needs some attention

The Capitol Hill Retreat was a nice, clean, cute apartment for me and my 2 kids to stay. It was close to the Metro stop and in a safe neighborhood. However, we had issues with the toilet not flushing properly (needed to manually adjust the mechanics in the water tank) and after contacting the owner heard no response the entire trip. The kitchen was not fully stocked. The owner only supplied 2 glasses, 3 forks, 3 plates, no potholders. There were plenty of spoons, bowls, and wine glasses however. Also- anytime I used the oven it set off the smoke alarm- even if it was just pre-heating! Overall, I would stay here again, but would recommend that the owners fix the toilet and re-stock the kitchen.

Family sightseeing week in DC

Unit was very nice. Clean and quiet, never heard neighbors above. Super convenient to Metro, easy walk to Safeway. The parking pass was great to have since we drove from New England, but then used Merto so we didn’t drive the whole week. Bed was very comfortable. Day bed was listed to convert to a king size. But it was really a trundle bed. One of my teens ended up sleeping on the other sofa instead. Kitchen could use a few more pots as there were only 2 small ones, barely big enough for us to boil pasta and heat sauce. Overall nice unit, we enjoyed our stay.

Daughters graduation

Overall it was fine. Communication with property owner at check in was slow going back and forth. The place was very clean. Only major problem was parking. That being said, we are not use to city parking, and have never had to park halfway around the block from the house. If I hadn’t had foot surgery 5 months ago ( with a 6-12 month recovery), or had been aware of the parking issues, I would have been prepared.

Excellent Location

This VRBO was a great home base to explore DC. It was a short walk to the Potomac Metro with several food options between the station and the walk back. It was so much nicer than a hotel since we were able to walk to Safeway and supply many of own meals and we had room to spread out at the kitchen table and 2 rooms. The rental is supplied with the bare basics for cooking, but it fit our needs for making breakfast and lunch for our family of 4. Unfortunately, there were a few frustrations. The wi-fi streaming services kept glitching so movies on the tv wouldn't work well. (WiFi is better at the kitchen table.) The day-bed didn't convert to a king (it was broken) so 1 teenager slept on the bed while the other slept on the couch, which was a little short for my almost 6ft. 15 year old. The place was generally in good repair, but a few towels and sheets weren't clean-which icked me out a bit and we didn't have enough hand soap for the week. The owner was very responsive, but wasn't really close enough to help with any problems. Overall, we were super happy to stay there. As long as the cleaning crew steps it up, it's a great option.

Disappointed

This rental has potential if the host cared about taking care of renters and cleaned the property. The location was the only real good thing about our experience. My husband and I arrived to a dirty apartment. Not being able to contact the host for hours we decided to begin cleaning the apartment with limited to no cleaning supplies available. Once I finally got a message from host I was given ultimatum to take refund on cleaning service or allow cleaning crew to come after the fact (which we did not need anymore). Because it was late on Sunday night in the middle of D.C. and we could not reasonably find other accommodations for our stay, we stayed in the rental reluctantly for the rest of our stay. The noise level from parents that live above is not pitter patter as described by host. You can’t cook in the kitchen without the fire alarm going off, over all cleanliness of unit was unacceptable, huge stain on living room couch, mold on shower curtain in bathroom, laundry room is a fire hazard. Despite all the rental issues we still managed to find our way to nearby restaurants, the monuments, and Smithsonian. This was the first time we ever had issues with a Vrbo location and host Is I could have left no stars for host communication I would have

Multiple Issues

Upon arriving (3 hours after check in time) the property had not been cleaned (bed slept in, floor dirty, etc..). The host got someone over to clean the property quickly but we had to leave for an hour after traveling all day. We were sent some money to make up for this. When we returned, it smelled like chemicals for hours The next afternoon we were contacted while out sightseeing and told the cleaner smelled gas the night before and that a gas company needed to come inspect the property while we were out with our things unattended at the property. We slept overnight the night before with a possible safety issue without knowing. When we saw the message, we replied to ask if needed to be there—and then we did not hear from the host again for over an hour. After a great deal of stress during what was supposed to be our main vacation day we were informed there was no issues after all. The final day we awoke to find the shower had no hot water at all for us to get ready to leave. We tried waiting but it did not warm up after trying several times over 2 hours and we eventually had to make do with freezing cold water. Although the issues were resolved the stress caused from not knowing the gas situation and issues on all three days of our short stay was unacceptable. The host did not seem very understanding and offered only a small refund for the gas issue. For a property only slightly less expensive than a hotel in a similar are I cannot recommend this place for DC travelers.

Great stay!

This property was perfect for our family. Two adults and 2 teenagers. It is so combiner to the Metro, within walking distance to a great place with restaurants, bars and a coffee shop. The hostess was easy to communicate with and the place was just as listed. The parking pass is a huge benefit. We will definitely be back!
