We came to the area to enjoy the leaves and outdoor experiences. The location made it very easy to drive to other areas in the metro. The walk to the Washington Arboretum and Japanese Garden was beautiful. Quick trip to grocery store for breakfast items to prepare in the kitchenette. Cozy and comfortable bed and living room area. Easy to stream a favorite show on a rainy evening on the TV. Clean and good natural light.

The room and living area were amazing and Carmen as a host was wonderful and easy to communicate with. Not too far from any major areas and has amazing small businesses near by. My girlfriend and I would 100% love to stay there again

We enjoyed thoroughly our stay in Carmen’s garden apartment, it so private, quiet, and comfortable with the pleasure of viewing nothing but green through its French doors. It’s also in a lovely neighborhood very close to beautiful Washington Park with its arboretum and Japanese garden. A very special stay.

The place was adorable, although the bathroom had mold on the ceiling that was pretty significant. Otherwise, we really enjoyed the area and the stay.
