Great stay. Super convenient to downtown

Great location for downtown stay. Average uber cost round trip to downtown from this location was $60. We were looking forward to meeting Sonya but not this trip. Clean and comfortable. Nice parking for one car.

DC family wedding weekend

A very pleasant, nicely decorated and comfortable home away from home while in DC to attend a family wedding. It was very convenient to have a parking space and some outdoor seating. We did not cook any meals but the full-size fridge gave us plenty of room for breakfast foods and beverages. The neighborhood was residential and felt safe. We would book this property again.

What a great place!

We loved this place. It had everything we could have asked for! Location was perfect.. close to the Metro for days we wanted to metro and just minutes from downtown on days we wanted to drive. We loved meeting sweet Sonya, the pup, the kiddos talked about her all the way home. We would definitely stay here again!

MiniMoon in DC

My husband and I recently got married and decided to take a mini-moon to DC. Our hosts were very agreeable and accommodating. The weather was extremely cold but we enjoyed being close to DC without being directly in the middle of the city at night. We would recommend staying here to anyone.

Washington DC 2024 trip

Perfect size for 2...everything we needed to sleep, relax and rejuvenate after a day of touring DC. Great location to subway, neighborhood walks, close to local restaurant, liquor store and mini grocery store. Sonia the dog was so loveable and loved to visit with us. Pavel and Sasha were very nice to chat with and have a cute little getaway for all to experience. Thanks for making our stay an easy one. Crystal and Mike

Worth the stay!

This was a perfect little place for my family and I to stay while touring DC. It was outside town enough to be quite but close enough to get to where we needed without spending alot of time in the car. Communication with the host were great! They checked in on us by message to make sure we were comfortable and if we needed anything. Was even helpful when we were looking for a place to watch the fireworks. Thank you for having us!

So convenient

I brought my three young children to DC as a homeschooling trip and this apartment was so nice to be at. It’s an easy drive into town but far enough outside of downtown to not feel overwhelmed by the amazing of people. If we come back to DC we will be staying here again. It had everything we needed and fit my family nicely. Also their dog Sonya was the BIGGEST hit with my kids. She is the sweetest!!!

Best Host Experience Ever

The apartment was cute and fit our needs perfectly. It was clean, nice, comfortable, and in a great, safe neighborhood. The stand out was our host. Pavel was attentive without being intrusive. We felt comfortable to use the apartment as our own, but we knew he was available if we needed anything. Their dog, Sonya, was a joy to play with, and we enjoyed talking with Pavel when we saw him, but we never felt like we didn't have our privacy or autonomy. They were the perfect hosts, and we truly enjoyed staying with them. We now hope to visit DC and stay with them again in the future!

Great apartment terrific hosts

This is an apartment in the basement of a row house in Washington DC, in a lovely neighborhood. It’s actually a similar house to that which my son owns and only a mile from his. The hosts have taken the basement and turned it into a beautiful one bedroom apartment, that is very comfortable. There’s a full kitchen that’s beautifully. Done a lovely living room, comfortable bedroom and bathroom. The host are terrific people, friendly, helpful, and have an adorable dog. I highly recommend this for you if you are looking for a place to stay in Washington DC.

Clean, cozy, and convenient

The hosts are great and very good at communicating. The unit is very clean and well decorated and has all of the essentials you will need. The hosts left a nice welcome note with recommendations for dining. The neighborhood is quiet and walkable and Fort Totten metro station is nearby with daily parking if needed. I will definitely stay here again if visiting DC. Also recommend nearby restaurant The Coup for breakfast or lunch and IL Porto in Old Town Alexandria for an excellent Italian dinner.
