My family of 4 was right at home. The location is great. Easy walk to the Metro. Lots of cool sights to see, and great restaurants nearby. This is a perfect spot to stay and do all of what DC has to offer. We would definitely stay here again!

I loved staying here. It was so nice to have a safe and easily accessible location in such a great location. The host responded to all of our questions. And the parking location was amazing.

Hadn’t been to Alexandria before and this was a great intro. Roomy place and accessible to everything in Old Town. Parking was a definite plus. The espresso machine was a nice touch (but if you’re a big coffee drinker you might want to tuck in a regular coffee maker 😁)

This was truly an amazing find! Our family of 6 was completely comfortable here. Everything is laid out very conveniently. We absolutely loved the artworks on the TV! So many thoughtful little touches- nightlights in the bathroom and charging station nightlights in the bedrooms, plenty of fresh towels, amenities like soap, shampoo, cleaning spray, coffee, etc. The two private parking spaces were incredibly helpful to our family since we had to drive two cars. (Yes, they are a tight fit- but with careful manuvering we were able to park our mini-van and sedan). Fabulous location- Close to metro station and an easy drive into Washington DC. (We did both options on different days.) We also wish we had more time to explore Alexandria because that's a lovely area just a few minutes away. We did a couple of loads of laundry and it worked very well. Alex was very responsive and left us perfect little gifts for both the kids and adults in our family (thank you!). Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful stay at this charming and nostalgic home! The space is full of character, with vintage decor, old-fashioned furnishings, and a great collection of vinyl records that added such a cozy, retro vibe. It felt like stepping back in time—in the best way possible. The host was incredibly welcoming and even left a selection of welcome drinks, which was a lovely touch. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience!
