This is a wonderful home in a great location! The space is very clean and updated. The owner is attentive and very nice, took a call from me on our first evening there to help me figure out the internet (our toddler monitor wasn’t connecting to wifi). She was so helpful and responsive. She even allowed us to extend our check out by 1 hour! Location is very convenient. It can get a bit noisy with sirens due to a nearby fire station, but my family mostly slept through it! The beds were extremely comfortable.

We had a great stay in this wonderful, nicely renovated townhouse in Old Town. It was wonderful to be able to walk to all the great shops and restaurants on King Street. The house was well appointed and had everything we needed.

The host was very responsive with any and all questions we messaged her with prior to our visit. She provided us with a parking pass as we rented a car (due to needing a car seat for my 11 month old). Parallel parking on the street was usually available for us during the week. A car is definitely not necessary though and if we came back without kids I would plan to Uber or walk most places. The location of this unit in Old Town Alexandria was fantastic! Easy to walk out the door and around the corner to start shopping, eating and drinking on King Street. We had great weather during our stay and walked down to the Potomac to eat most meals with a view of the water. Highly recommend Vola’s, Hummingbird and Charter House for fresh seafood options and great drinks! We had hoped to go into DC, which we discovered would have been fairly easy from this location using public transportation, but we honestly enjoyed Old Town so much we did not feel the need to leave! The unit was professionally cleaned prior to our arrival. The host was kind enough to let us check in a few hours early! The kitchen is well organized and has everything you need-including a separate wine fridge! Great dining room with lots of seating. The outdoor space was a huge bonus and could easily seat a large group of people. The bedrooms were very nicely decorated with very comfortable beds. The bathrooms all appeared to be updated somewhat recently. Perfect space for our family get away!

We went with a group of couples and this property was great for a group of 6. It was very clean and comfortable. Everyone remarked on how comfortable the beds were. The basement area was good for gathering with comfortable couches and a larger tv. We also enjoyed spending time out on the patio, even though it was late February. The location is great, we were able to park our car and forget it for our stay. Check out process was very simple.

This is one of the best rentals I've stayed at - the backyard space was beautiful (tons of seating), the fridge and freezer are spacious, and there's TONS of kitchenware. Beds were very comfortable. It was the perfect spot to take advantage of great weather the weekend of the Marine Corps Marathon. Loved that this was within a 15 minute walk to the King St Metro & 20+ minute walk down to the waterfront along King Street. Also within walking distance of Trader Joe's if you don't want to rent a car, but it certainly is a walk. Only downside was the sirens from ambulances going by throughout the weekend, for anyone sensitive to the noise. Would definitely recommend this location!

Not a brag, just a statement of fact-we’ve stayed in a lot of VRBOs over the past decade plus, and this is one of the best. Staying here really made our vacation-if you can call it that when you’re retired. We were close to restaurants and retail, with a doable walk to the Metro. The renovated kitchen wanted for nothing, the beds were comfy, and the outdoor area was cozy. It was so nice to spend a day exploring, and come ‘home’ to this property, because that’s what it felt like. There are stairs, so keep that in mind.

Check-in very easy. Great kitchen, great bedrooms, great back patio. Loved that they made the whole process so easy. I’ve started to realize that people with beautiful homes are far less demanding in their checkout process then people with homes that need help. This place was outstanding.

Beautiful, comfortable, and very clean. Tastefully decorated. So close to restaurants, trolly car, and Metro. Just parked car and walked and took trolly everywhere. We will definitely stay here again.
