House was nice and clean and convenient to the Metro. Which was a huge perk. Parking was a little tricky to figure out at first but once we got it figured out it was fine. Enough room for our family of 5.
We enjoyed our stay in this townhouse near Howard Universityand to the one of gay districts. The moment we opened the door we realized we had made a good choice. The transformation of this historic home into a modern place was amazing. The open spaces and beautiful kitchen made for the perfect place to rest after visiting the sites. The metro, restaurants, whole foods and nice places to stroll are all nearby. We were able to travel most places using transit. Note that the home is on a busy street that is sometimes noisy. The back of the house is quiet however.
We had a wonderful stay. The house was very clean with plenty space for the 4 of us.Amenities were plentiful, we did not cook during our stay but we noticed if we were, the kitchen was well stocked!The metro was within walking distance and if you did not care to walk, good restaurants were near.Plenty towels and beds were comfortable.It could be a little noisy late nights but you are in the city. Did not disturb our sleeping.If you enjoy looking at architecture, thereâs an eye full.It was a pleasant stay ⊠we would stay there again.
Great spot for our family of 4 on our visit to DC. Plenty of space, comfortable beds, decent variety of kitchen supplies to make meals and plenty of bathrooms for everyone. Five minute walk to the Shaw-Howard metro stop and a handful of restaurants within walking distance. The neighborhood behind the unit is nice but the house sits on a noisy main street. The 2 bed bedroom is in the back, minimizing any issues for the younger travelers. Great spot to serve as our base for our trip, definitely would recommend. Communication with the owner was great.
Just the right place for our trip to DC with friends. We loved the space for us to hang out in the evenings. The kitchen was perfect for meal prep. And the set up in the bedrooms was just right. Very spacious and all the things you would need. Location was perfect as well. We wouldnât hesitate in booking it again.
We had a great time at this location! The neighborhood is cute and vibrant. (It is in a city still, so there is traffic and other noise, but we expected this). The space itself was so cute and very clean. It had everything we needed. Xavion was a phenomenal host and responded to each of of my messages so quickly. When we return to visit DC I absolutely plan on staying here again! Thank you for a wonderful visit!
Pros- The inside of the house was clean, the beds were comfortable, it was a short walk to the metro station, there was a nice restaurant right across the street, when I messaged the owner they responded quickly. Cons- The parking space in the alley behind the house was, as my kids would say âsketchâ. When we arrived the house next door was doing renovations and a large truck was blocking the way. My husband had to get out of the car and find someone and ask them to move. The day we left there was definitely a homeless man hanging out back. We didnât know there was a basement apartment and on our last evening the house alarm system said several times âBasement door open. Basement door closedâ. The night before, we were watching a movie and a police officer knocked on the door to ask if weâd called about a break in. It scared us a bit. Maybe itâs because itâs a city, or because itâs by the hospital, or both, but cop cars and ambulances are constantly driving by with sirens blaring.And minor things; fridge water didnât work, they offered coffee pods but no sugar, they had minimum cooking utensils. Overall, it wasnât a bad place to stay just make sure you get the alarm system working, plan to buy some of the basics, and bring sound machines.
We had a wonderful time in DC. The house was great and had all of the amenities we needed and wanted. We were a block and a half from the Metro, making it easy to get around.
