Our family enjoyed our stay at this clean and charming home. Every need was provided for including dish soap, hand soap and shampoo. We were very comfortable.
We used this property as our base camp to visit the Washington DC and the surrounding area. It turned out great! The metro train station was a very short walk from the house. The neighborhood was clean, safe and quiet.
The house was clean and comfortable. The only thing I would add is dressers for the bedrooms that don’t have them and a space to hang up a coat and /or dress in the main floor bedroom. We enjoyed being there and being able to walk to the grocery store and restaurants.
ProsVery clean Location is great. Less than 2 miles from a few metro stops Fully functional kitchen- coffee pot/tea kettle/pots/cutting boards and more Multiple dining spaces-bar/dining room/outside seating Good backyard space Hosts were polite,kind and very responsive Upstairs bunk beds were comfyUpstairs large bedroom has a desk perfect for working and a comfortable bedFun foosball and mini pool tableCons Main floor bedroom mattress wasn’t supportive
We were pleased with our stay. The house is nicely laid out -- efficient and compact. The kitchen had everything we needed. There were nice touches throughout such as upscale towels. The location was perfect for exploring downtown Kensington. We wanted to flag 2 items. First, we could hear the downstairs neighbors speaking loudly starting around 6:30 am. Not a big problem, but a little annoying. Second, the stsirs to the upper level are narrow and a bit uneven.We
We are new at VRBO and this was the greatest option for visiting family in the Kensington area. We loved staying at this charming house. It was wonderful for the 5 of us. It was so close to our relative’s house we could even walk there. The town is absolutely charming. The communication with the hosts was perfect. Thank you!! Absolutely recommend.
Quiet neighborhood. Close to shops and area we had to access. Host were very kind and reactive to help, for example, to provide few items we needed in the kitchen.
House is located in a nice residential area. The pictures look smaller than the house actually is. 4 adults and 2 children had more than enough room. Well appointed kitchen. Linens and towels were nice quality. Visiting relatives in Silver Spring and will hopefully stay again!
