Perfect for just us

This property is not downtown, but out to the southeast of DC. The metro subway is only a few blocks and has a parking area. We found it easy to get to and the metro took us everywhere we wanted to go!

Comfy, Cozy & Quiet

Firstly, check in was smooth, Ibrecieved all the information and access an hour before check in time which was very convenient because we drove up from Florida. I noticed a few reviews mention the location, I did my research and used google to map out the location and attractions near by way before I even booked the home. The neighborhood was quiet and I had no issues. There are new homes being built in the area so the construction site and debris is to be expected, but construction wasnt loud either. The home was clean and the decor was nice and simple, a big comfy couch in the family room, a spacious master suite and large shower, The memory foam beds were comfortable as well, clean linen and towels and a washer and dryer if you need it. Communication with the owner was on point, she was always available and responded in a timely manner. My children had a blast. We had a great Christmas Vacation and we stayed from Monday December 23rd to Friday December 27th. We didn't want to leave. I would book again if I'm ever back in the area.

All show, but no comfort

Stayed through Thanksgiving 2024. Let's start with the PROS... it was a beautiful recently built,strong structured, townhome. There were many outlets & recessed lighting fixture in every room making everything look beautiful. CONS. I had to reach out to the property owner for access to the property at check-in after not hearing from her. The place was not ready to enter due to the cleaners not showing. Family of 5 from out of town couldn't checkin until 3 hours later. I was monetarily compensated for the inconvenience. The advertisement of the property displayed a backyard, but it was inaccessible with a wall that block the access to it. FALSE ADVERTISEMENT!! When we got in, we noticed the internet was out. I connected the owner, who couldn't report it until the next day. Call it bad timing, but it still sucked to have your family in the house w/o internet and all of the TVs required it to work. 1 of the 3 BDRMs didn't have a TV and of the 2 that did, there was no Firestick power cable in 1 so that TV was useless. After the internet was working (halfway through the last day) we noticed the remote to the LVRM TV didn't work, so that TV was useless also. There were 3 toilets and 1 spare roll of toilet paper, the kitchen had no paper towels, used sponges, broken handle to the Airfyer door, dishwasher with no detergent, & old cooking utensils that melted into the food. Checkout was moved up an hour, so a late checkin & an early checkout was upsetting. The stay wasn't comfort

Washington DC Spring Break

We enjoyed our weeklong vacation during Spring Break. This home was very clean. The owner is incredibly prompt to respond and communicate. There could be more kitchen utensils and dishware for guest use. The neighborhood did not instill a sense of security for us. Local neighbors were yelling at all hours, and we did not feel safe to walk to the Benning Rd metro stop. Instead, we drove to the Capitol Heights stop, as we could use the Park and Ride lot there.
