Darling Alexandria home

This is a charming little home with a fabulous covered patio. It was perfect for our group to play cards, have a meal and enjoy watch’s others company. The walk to the metro was about 20 minutes (with hills!) but manageable. Andy was very responsive and provided the easiest check out ever!!!

Alexandria Stay

Property was as advertised and plenty of space for our family. Location was within walking distance to the metro (my kids were able to walk with no issues). Communication with the owner was very good. Wonderful place for families!

Great place, very clean. Lots of steps

Great place, very clean, and modern. Lots of steps to the front door and to the top floor. If steps are no issue this is a possible place for you.

Exceeded our expectations

This home was nicely updated inside and had an excellent floor plan for a smaller house. We were pleasantly surprised at how nice everything was. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would stay here again.

A Great Home Base

We loved this location. It felt like a home away from home for our visit to the D.C. area. It was within a good walking distance (about 18 - 20 min) for a family of 5 with a 5 year old to get to the metro. We felt very safe in the neighborhood, and enjoyed the time we had at the house as a family. The beds were great, the showers were awesome, and we would definitely re-book this location if we come back to this area.

Family vacation

It had three good sized bedrooms and able to sit 6 comfortably in the dining room and 2 at the counter. Worked well to visit national mall via the metro and parking on the street right in front of the house was never a problem.

Very clean and in a good location

Property description accurately describes the house. There are 13 steps from the sidewalk to the house that are new with a good handrail. The bedrooms are well equipped with comfortable beds. Bathrooms are very nice with good showers. Kitchen is nice for cooking your own meals. Lots of dishes, glasses and silverware .Living room is small and the couch is low and not very comfortable. Our stay would have been enhanced with a book that offered tips (such as King St shuttle from the Metro to Old Town Arlington), dinning recommendations, and grocery shopping (check out Wegman’s). More information on house mechanics would be beneficial, such as which thermostat was for top or bottom floor. Our host offered excellent communication.

Lovely little home

This house was a great place to rest and wind down after spending the day sightseeing in DC. It had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed grilling and hanging out on the back patio. The kids loved their room and all the beds were very comfortable. We looked forward to getting back there at the end of our day. The stairs out front were very steep getting to the front door but we knew that from the description on Vrbo.

Excellent Property for Family Stay in DC Metro Area

This property served as an excellent vacation rental for our family of 5 for a week-long trip to visit the DC metro area. It’s just a 15 minute drive (during low traffic times) to the National Mall. One metro station is walking distance and another metro station (with a parking garage) is just an 8 minute drive. The beds were all comfortable, kitchen is well-stocked and very nice for meal preparation, the backyard patio and grilling station are also very nice. The neighborhood is well maintained, safe, and very quaint. Our host was both very helpful and responsive. I highly recommend this property and host. We’d definitely stay here again.

Just Perfect!

Great location, nice neighborhood close to metro, just a short walk less than a mile. Close to down town Old Alexandria. House was very nice. Manager was responsive and helpful. Would stay here again. I read some comments about the step. They were not bad at all. The house has step but nothing extreme. My 70 year old stepmother navigated them without issue.

Truly perfect home and location

Came for a week in DC with my family. I have used vacation rentals extensively and even work in the industry and this home was absolutely the most thoughtfully stocked home I’ve ever seen. Owner was very helpful and even mailed home a coat I accidentally left. Because driving into DC isn’t recommended with limited parking and traffic in general, finding a spot close to a metro station was important to us. We parked at Huntington station on the weekends because it was parking garages. Didn’t even try during the week as we nervous about availability but that’s an option. We walked to the King Street station just a mile away during the week. Spent one evening in Old Town Alexandria and all you have to do is walk to the King Street station and there’s a big sign for the free trolley. That trolley takes you up and down King Street (where Old Town is) and has very good hours. Trolleys come every 15 minutes so don’t even worry about looking up a schedule. Had an amazing time at this home and if I’m ever in the area again, no place I’d rather stay. So clean, well-appointed, and perfect location!

Wonderful House, to many stairs to get to front door.

The house, the location, the neighborhood are all top notch. The only concern I had was the steep thirteen steps to get to the front door. If you have no problem with stairs, I highly recommend this has the perfect place. But there are no pictures showing the steepness of the front of the property. Beware if you have issues.

Great House

This is a wonderful property in a good location. There is plenty of room and love that the upstairs bedrooms have been separated by a wall making both room private. Andrew was very helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had. Yes there is a lot of stairs but they are doable as we are in our 70's. The patio is very relaxing but the grill needs some repair. The Metro is not within walking distance so you will have to drive and pay for parking which ran us $18 a day at the Embassy Suites garage, I would highly recommend this property.

Family weekend

We stayed here for an extended weekend. There were 6 adults and 1 child. The house was clean, linens provided, and even bathroom accessories present. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and enjoy family meals. Andy was responsive and timely in all communication. We had an issue with the dishwasher and he showed up and took care of it very quickly! Overall, the house looked like the pictures. The third bedroom wasn't exactly private and the stairs up to the home were a little challenging for my dad. But we made it work and made wonderful memories!

Deceptive Listing

Place was great, it just didn't have the bedroom configuration that was listed. Despite a listing that was flush with photos (pictures of the rooms, pictures of the coffee maker, pictures of hallways and room closeups, pictures of the place settings, pictures of town), there was NO photograph of one of the bedrooms only being accessible through another bedroom. Essentially making 2 of the rooms not private to each other (despite the listing saying 3 private bedrooms). This was a critical omission which would have had us booking elsewhere for the needs of our group. The property manager was going to kick us out when I complained, which would have been even worse at that point after traveling 8 hours with small children and elderly relatives who already needed to be displaced as a result of the deceptive listing.

Wonderful DC Area House

The house was a great place to stay as we were visiting for Spring Break with my family. With two separate bedrooms and their own bathroom upstairs, it gave our family the space we needed for our week long stay. There was never an issue with parking and the new front steps were very convenient (those pictures need to be updated in the listing- it looks great!) Overall, the house was great and had everything you could ask for - my only suggestions would be a Keurig and that is just a personal preference. The location was quiet and conveniently located by the highway - very safe community! Would highly recommend!

Great property for a group

We stayed 7 days over Christmas. We made dinner for 8 on Christmas Eve. Large backyard area if we stayed in the summer. 😏 very comfortable. Good location in nice neighborhood. Only challenge is 10 steps up from street. At 75 I am healthy enough to negotiate the stairs, however I think they would be a challenge for anyone with disabilities.
