Great home base for Capitol and Mall visits

Great little place super close to Eastern Market metro and a 1 mile walk to the Capitol. You can take the metro directly to anywhere on the mall. The owner is very responsive.

Perfect home base for our family trip to DC

This was the perfect place to rest during our busy days exploring DC! The Eastern Market neighborhood is lovely, with beautiful old row houses, lush trees, and plenty of shops and cafes nearby. Eastern Market itself is a fabulous old market building still in use. The streets outside have open air vendors during the day. Thanks to the location, The most amazing part of our trip was the ease in getting around on the Metro (subway). We took Amtrak to DC, and were able to make it to the Eastern Market stop quite easily from Union Station. From there, we rolled our luggage less than a block away to our place. My kids are still at an age where they cannot do very long walks, but they managed all of this DC experience with ease because of the Metro. Eastern Market is just a ten minute ride from most of the major landmarks and museums, so this also means that as needed, we just hopped back to take a break. Close to Rita’s place are also, notably, Trader Joe’s and CVS (one minute walk) which helped us to manage costs of dining. Inside, the flat is literally and figuratively cool (we traveled in late May) and peaceful. There are two roll away cots so that our kids each had their own very cozy beds in the living room. I’d love to return to DC one day and I would absolutely stay here again. It was truly exceptional, a fabulous illustration to our kids of what it feels like to live in a classic, “real” city. We all loved seeing the sights and retreating to this perfect haven as needed.

Great Location Close to Metro

We loved the basement apartment. It was perfect for our stay. We stayed in early August with my wife and daughter. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. We were close to restaurants and groceries (Trader Joe's). Included with the stay was parking which was great since we drove into town. We parked the car and did not use it again until we left as we used the DC Metro the entire time we were in town. The Eastern Market station is an easy 2 minute walk down the sidewalk. It could not have been easier. The apartment had plenty of room the 3 of us and would have been fine even if our other daughter was able to join us too. Rita and her husband were perfect hosts and they live right next door. Our next trip to DC we will look to stay here again.

Good place near Capitol

Clean, easy to use. A little challenging to find at night, and the heat is controlled upstairs - but these were minor. Having a reliable place in walking distance from the Hill was wonderful.

Washington DC Trip

Awesome location, just a few steps from the Metro. Plenty of restaurants, shopping, etc. right in the neighborhood. Just as advertised, the unit was perfect for our family of four (two adults and two kids, 12&13. Both kids loved the place and neighborhood. The owners were amazing, very attentive if we needed anything or had questions, both before and during our stay. Would highly recommend this property for anyone visiting the city.

Nice Spot

Conveniently located nearby Metro and in walking distance to Capitol Building. Museums are a few more city blocks from there. Several restaurants also in walking distance. Property Manager was very friendly and helpful. My only issue was there was no handrail going down to the apartment, if you have any walking or related issues make sure you can walk down stairs unassisted. I would recommend and definitely stay again in the future.

Clean property, safe neighborhood

The property was very clean. The property manager was wonderful, quite accommodating. The neighborhood felt safe enough to walk to local stores and restaurants. The manager forgot to include in listing the unit was downstairs, so I was a bit uneasy learning that I was mistakenly trying to enter the occupied unit upstairs. They may have added that to their listing. Otherwise, a perfect stay for my business travel. I would recommend to others!

Perfect location

This is the perfect location for sightseeing. Lots of good places to eat in walking distance. There’s a metro from the airport, so no car needed at all. There were quite a few mosquitoes but somehow get into the house. My teenagers got beat up a little bit. The only thing that put a damper on our visit, was the washing machine broke. We had been expecting to use it every day. Rita her family were super helpful. They really should have a washing machine that works and can dry clothes faster than three hours. It really threw a wrench in our evenings. Other than that, it was a great location.

Great stay!

Property was just as described - and even closer to Metro than anticipated. Very clean, helpful to have the extras such as dish and hand soap available. Rita left the lights in the apt on so it was easy to find the rental for a nighttime arrival. Even printed a parking pass in advance for us! The cots for our 2 small kids were great. Easy to jump on the Metro and within walking distance to most tourist areas for those with more stamina. Neighborhood was great. Would stay again!

Had a wonderful stay!

Everything was just as we had looked forward to. The wife and I wanted a nice weekend away and this stay delivered. The house’s proximity to everything was perfect. We were only a few blocks from everything we could have needed and we enjoyed multiple outings throughout the weekend for food, coffee, shopping, and sightseeing. When we wanted a moment to recharge, we easily popped back to the rental. On top of everything, our communications with the owner were quick and caring. Highly recommend this stay!
