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.

Anniversary getaway

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.

Close to national monuments and sights, quiet neighborhood

We didn’t spend a lot of time inside, mainly to sleep but although it’s on a smaller side, I thought it was very fairly priced and the host was great!

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.

1st time using vrbo

Be aware of the parking policies if you are taking/using a car-just get clarity on the days and how long you can park from the host.This was our first time ever using a vrbo and it was definitely a learning experience-it is not like a hotel where you can talk to someone immediately and get help.

Two nights

Place was clean and pretty quiet. Never needed anything other to ask about parking but the host was super helpful and quick with a response. We stayed through a Wednesday and street cleaning happens on Wednesdays so that was definitely good to know. Just sure wherever you park, read the parking signs. Thanks again for having us and helping to keep our vacation special.

Start your day at BOL cafe

Quiet, in the heart of the city. 5 to 10 minutes' walk to an excellent cafe, BOL. 20 to 25 minutes walk to Union Market where there's a variety of restaurants and kiosks including Yellow for freshly made pita.It's approximately one hour's walk to the Smithsonian museums, all of which house amazing Art, and the African American history and culture museum was top of my list; amazing.We appreciated the spaciousness of this apartment and being able to do our laundry. Slept well each night. Would like to return to this place.

Wonderful Stay!

My husband and I stayed here during our trip to DC as a part of our honeymoon. The communication with the host was great, the rental is as shown in the photos, and the location is perfect for seeing the city. Our host even left a beautiful orchid in our room as a wedding gift (thank you, again)! The place is easy to find from the street and we had no issues with parking. We will definitely stay here again when we visit DC.

I can’t recommend this stay enough. Affordable, close parking (street) excellent host (always available and ready to help). I lost my parking pass and within an hour he had another one for me without the slightest issue. It’s a basement unit but clean with a TV and very comfortable bed. Towels, kitchenette, the whole 9 yards. We went two adults two kids under three, no problem. Would go back no question.

Met our needs

The property was just as advertised and the host is a super nice guy. Was just what we needed for our stay in DC. Bus stop just a few minutes walk and made our trip into the Capitol area very easy. A little longer walk is the Metro...or you can take the bus and transfer at Union station. We took the Metro to the Zoo with ease. Would definitely recommend this property.

Cute apartment in Eckington

Convenient to my son's house, had what we needed - working heater, comfy beds (1Q, 1 couch), responsive host. We didn’t cook but could have, it's stocked. The coffeemaker, microwave, toaster all work. Only downside was low water pressure in the shower. I'd stay again when I visit my son!
