It was wonderful We enjoyed meeting Carla and her husbandVery nicely furnished and felt like a home away from home. Was in a great location. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
From the get go Carla and Fred made our stay great! We were welcomed with a parking spot on a street that finds them hard to come by at times. The location, the property, and the hosts were all top notch. I can’t recommend a stay here enough.
My only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is because we were surprised at the lower height of the ceilings. My son and husband are a little over 6 ft and they felt a little crammed. But accommodations are very nice, and location was great for us.
Such a quaint place in an amazing area, close to the Capital! We will definitely stay here again if/when we visit DC in the future. The home was spotless, spacious and had everything we needed. We walked most everywhere but Ubers were easy when we needed them. Parking was a big concern for us when booking and it was very easy/convenient here (and free). Thanks for a great stay!
This was our perfect home base for enjoying all the sights of DC. It's a 15 min walk to the closest metro, so we were able to get around the city easily without the use of a car. Everything was clean in the unit and it was a very easy check-in and check-out. It was a bonus to have the use of a washer & dryer! I highly recommend this vrbo for a family vacation to DC!

Thanks Laura, glad your enjoyed your trip to DC and, more importantly, your stay at our vacation rental. We enjoyed having you!
This property is in an excellent location! Carla and Fred are excellent hosts. The property was comfortable for us as a place to rest after very busy days. While we did not use the kitchen, there was plenty if you plan to eat in during your stay. The location was an easy walking distance to many restaurants. We would love to stay here again when we visit in the future!

Thanks Barbara! As I like to say,"We're only a phone call away!" Glad you had a good experience and that you enjoyed our neighborhood and home.
Carla and Fred were lovely hosts. It was a great and safe location. It’s a 30 minute walk to the nation’s capital or 15 minute walk to Metro at the lovely Eastern Market area. Everything was perfect. Only suggestion would be more water pressure in the shower, but a minor inconvenience and I would love to return!

About the host
Hosted by Carla
She's American, he's French and together they've created a special place filled with the best of both worlds.
Why they chose this property
Location, Location, Location. We wanted to be close to the action, yet far enough away to enjoy a quiet night of sleep. It's easily accessible to major attraction and highways. The house was originally built in 1920 and totally renovated to include the most up-to-date amenities.
What makes this property unique
The unit is equipped with everything you need. Whatever is missing is only a request away. We're always available to assist. One guest described their visit as 'it was like staying with friends'. On the other hand, if you are totally self sufficient, you'll never see us. Only know we're a text or phone call away.
