The place was great. Has a nice, classic look to it. The are around is very busy and loud. Alot of sirens. Its a pretty close walk to everything, a little over a mile walk to most sites. The train station is not very far. Overall the place was great

The accommodation is good and very clean, but there are a few issues (some lights don't work, the downstairs bathroom is out of order, and the upstairs bathroom has faulty taps). Otherwise, it's very well located for visiting the museums.

Terra M.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location
Very centrally located and clean property, but we encountered several functional issues. The water pressure in the downstairs shower was so low it was unusable. We also found the bathrooms lacked towel racks or hooks (even for hand towels), and the rod to open the main blinds was broken.The kitchen was not well-equipped for a group—for example, there were only 4 spoons provided despite the property sleeping 6. Additionally, the TV remote did not work and the Wi-Fi was poor. While the house is in a nice spot, it needs better maintenance and basic outfitting to be comfortable.

Conveniently located in the heart of DC. Be mindful of the parking. Listing could have done a better job at disclosing parking rules especially if you’re staying during the week days. You’d have to move your vehicle before morning traffic or you’re risking getting a ticket or towed. (We did not know this). We appreciated the Pak n play since we had our baby with us. Very traditional row home with some updates

The house itself is quirky, but nice. It was very clean and everything was there that we needed. We weren't planning to be there most of the day. I'm assuming this may be a new. There are some things that are fairly easy to correct that would make customers happier.Bathrooms are tight to get into. They really need towel hooks, especially for hand towels so they aren't on the floor. We do not live in the city, so it would have been nice if we were informed of the parking situation beforehand. We may not have rented a car that needed moved at 5am. The internet never really worked. We had to keep using our own hotspot. In the city, it should be very fast. It was difficult to communicate. Only messaging through the app instead of a phone number. We weren't there during the day because we were out doing things. So at 7pm, there wasn't much that could be done to correct Internet problems. Also, we've stayed in VRBO's for many years. I don't believe I've ever stayed somewhere that didn't have a welcome binder of some sort. Again, the owner should assume we don't live there. It should have helpful info. City info, tourist info, transportation info. A number to contact in case of emergency. At the very least, help us support local businesses and give us restaurant suggestions in the area. I know we live in the age of the internet, but insider info is always better.None of this ruined our trip and we made great memories!
