My partner and I enjoyed our time here; the host was responsive and helpful. We were pleasantly surprised with the space. The pictures are a little outdated with furniture, so it made the experience even nicer seeing the place updated. The location was convenient for groceries, fun places to visit, and average travel to other places in the DMV. Overall, a good stay and location.

The room was very clean and the host was very responsive and easy to get a hold of. The parking is misleading. You can only park on the street and it’s a one-way short block. You might have to park up around the corner. The host was able to get us a pass to park in that area. We were a little worried about the neighborhood because it seemed a little sketchy at night, but it turned out to be OK. The parking was the biggest downfall. We had to leave a day and a half early due to family emergency.

I appreciated that apartment was clean and a great location for my stay! Great coffee shop, restaurants and pub within walking distance, with very easy access to public transportation. I enjoyed the comfort of the bed and pillows & the extra blankets available. I also very much appreciated that there was laundry soap provided for the washer. The sounds of a child and loud bangs coming from above were annoying at times, but did not spoil the stay. Hand soap and a trash can in the bathroom would be a great addition to this apartment. Thank you for a lovely stay!

The host was accommodating by letting us check-in early and gave quick responses. However, I would not recommend staying here. It was not as clean as I would like and it was little bit rougher. The biggest reasons that I wouldn’t recommend it is because you are in someone’s basement and you can hear every move they make, the area did not feel safe, and the whole place was filled with a strong weed smell during the evening and early morning.

Our host was quickly responsive to my questions and was willing to work with me about an early check-in. The location was good for connecting with buses and the metro. The bedroom was a bit tight, but we weren’t there enough for it to be an issue. We did think that the mattress was a bit too soft. Overall it was great for the price, and we would stay there again.

Host was wonderfully responsive, pictures are accurate, didn't say on the listing but kitchen was stocked with pots and pans and cooking utensils which was nice. Unfortunately the snacks weren't stocked like the picture haha and there was only one butter knife but hey better than nothing. WiFi was fast and there are two smart TVs. A nice quiet stay.Unfortunately the comments about the weed smell are very true, it actually woke me up the first night at 2AM it was so strong coming in the vents. If you don't mind it though, that's one thing... personally I was not a fan but did get kinda used to it I guess...It does sleep at least four, the only thing is you'll be on either the fold-down couch or on one of the two air mattresses. They had many extra comforter sets and sheet sets available, which was nice for the air mattresses and couch. I do think the place as a whole was not as clean as I'd hoped-- some of the dishes in the cabinets still had water between them or weren't completely clean, there's a lottt of scuffs and marks on the walls, floor wasn't the cleanest, carpet is dirty, baseboards peeling up by the kitchen, etc. Not anything like bugs or spiderwebs, but just could be cleaner. Overall, this place is cheap for D.C. and not a far drive from the convention center, which is great. Street parking right outside which is clutch. Felt pretty safe, someone did get arrested at the end of the street our first night though lol but that's the city for ya

The property was beautiful, clean, well stocked to cook and do laundry. There were comfortable bed and sitting areas. The decorations were lovely. The location is excellent for visiting DC by bus. We experienced a persistent Marijuana odor that entered the bedroom and made that area very uncomfortable to use. Sometimes the odor was even stronger and more irritating than other times. When we arrived I informed our host that a previous guest may have been smoking in the unit because of the strong smoke odors. He said there was an air purifier in the room and he could bring another if needed. When we left the unit, we turned the air purifier up all the way. But when we were trying to sleep, we could only put it on at a lower level because of how loud the purifier is. At times we would wake up to a very strong, very, very irritating odor of Marijuana smoke entering the bedroom. It made us ill. This unit was listed as non-smoking. This is not an accurate representaion of the property and is a health and safety issue.

My wife and I had a great time while on our vacation. The main concern was that parking was a bit of an issue, but manageable, but definitely research parking signs, etc. for D.C. Great price for the stay though.

Nice place - great host

Note the signs for street cleaning days before parking; we had no issue there. The address that popped up on the Maps site the day before was for the VRBO across the street, but Tambor got us straightened out. You may just want to check the address when you message ahead of time. The apartment is clean and welcoming. We enjoyed our stay.
