The home for our needs since we were spending our days exploring DC. Neighbors seemed friendly. I felt like the kitchen could use a deep clean and some organizing. There were crumbs in the drawers so I felt like I needed to wash anything before using it. Other than that everything was totally fine. Loved the newer shower that was attached to the bedroom upstairs! Thank you for letting us use your home for the week.

Had a great week visiting DC from Texas and this house made it possible. Anything perceived as negative in this review, I'm sure, has already been addressed as I have not communicated with the owner first. It was all ready for us and I had no need to pester the owner while we were there. A common problem I see in host homes is that there are too many pots/pans etc which makes it difficult to keep them all clean and organized. I'm a freak in this regard due to my occupation, so my standard is likely different than most. But in all that I couldn't find a coffee pot. The mirror needs to be mounted in the downstairs bathroom. Water pressure and temperature were great throughout the home. Lots of towels available. Lots of them which was great for the 8 of us. Laundry machines worked great. We're from rural Texas and I was nervous about security in DC but my wife/fam said they never once felt threatened or uneasy. There are more homeless in DC than here and the local (super easy to access) drug store/grocery store have stuff locked up and extra security guards which was strange to us. Just a cultural difference is all. This home is about 200 feet from a gigantic police station and the people were all friendly that we talked to. We used the easy to access and park "Congress Heights" subway stop daily for all our touring. We also visited the Frederic Douglass home which is maybe a 5 minute drive from this home. Thanks to the host, we had a great trip. I definitely recommend.

This was a nice place

Very clean, great and prompt communication. Beautiful home with lots of space.

We went there to meet up our family we haven't seen in years...the communication with the owner was great. The house have everything you need, the neighborhood was quite. The only thing was the mattresses (not all rooms has comfortable mattress. We would stay again.

Everything was okay, with a few exception. Owner was great in addressing the issues. Cleaning it does need a deep cleaning. Furniture it need needs new couch on the bottom but the owner mention the previous people broke it before we got there so it was inconvenient for us since we had a big group. The mattress do need to be changed as most of them were bumpy. But over all kids had a great time playing. And it meet of needs for a good weekend.

Property was nothing special and had some quirks, but the showers were hot and it was conveniently located for easy travel to Anacostia Metro and DC attractions. Property owner was quick to respond and kind. Most beds were comfy. Quite a bit of space, even with 11 of us (mostly kids). Enjoyed our stay!

This is a very good place to stay. Our family stayed comfortably, with enough beds and bathrooms to use. A few upkeep needed but otherwise our stay was good. It is close to groceries, pharmacy etc and also a block away from a police station so you are assured a safe stay. Communication with owner was easy and fast, check in was easy too. So if you'll be staying in the Washington DC area, this is a good place to check out.
