Spring break getaway

This was our first family trip in a few years. The location is perfect and the apartment is spacious enough for 2 adults and a teen. We were able to order grocery delivery to have breakfast items in the apartment daily. We will for sure stay here again if we return to DC.

comfy, cozy and walkable

Took my daughters to DC for the first time and Ellen's place was perfect. Perfectly close and walkable, comfortable and safe historic neighborhood, and cozy after a long day of walking. The place was roomy, the kitchen was well-equipped, the Netflix was a nice touch, and we had a number of amenities that made it home-like. Ellen was very communicative and we enjoyed our stay.

12 Days - 12 Museums

This warm and comfortable Capitol Hill apartment was the perfect base for our late winter one-museum-a-day visit to DC. We felt at home as soon as our bags were unpacked. All but one of our destinations were within easy walking distance from our front door. The neighborhood restaurants were wonderful. Excellent groceries and pharmacy a few blocks away. Hosts were helpful and responsive to our needs. All in all a wonderful experience.

Great location and nice host and neighbors. Easily walkable. Quiet area and plenty of street parking at this time of year. Our host was great about communicating with is even when we had last minute snafus. Property was as described which was plenty of room for us and cozy. Not fancy but functional.

fragrance free paradise

We came for the People's March in DC. Finding a safe harbor is so difficult in the calmest of times and my hosts went out of their way to make sure their rental was fragrance free, comfy and calming all around. They even had gluten free fresh baked goods waiting for us on the counter when we arrived. Such kindness will stay with me in a time when kindness means everything. The apartment was clean and comfy and a beautiful respite for our stay in a chaotic time in DC.

Great place to stay

Easy check in and check out, clean apartment, and had all the essentials needed. It's a great central location to the subway which was convenient because we could just park our car the entire time and not drive again until we left. The owners are very responsive as well.

Even though it is a basement apartment it was very quiet and felt homey. House has everything you need. Neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe. We would definitely stay here again.

Quaint Apartment & Great Location

Perfect apartment for visiting our nation's capitol! Only a 15 minute walk to Union Station to catch the Metro. We had a family of 4, 2 adults and 2 adult children. Pretty tight quarters if you plan on staying in the apartment for long periods of time. We were usually out early and came back late so no problem for us. The apartment had a nice full kitchen, W/D, and the hosts thought of almost anything you might need and responded quickly.
