A great property! The host was easy to contact and quick to respond. The apartment was clean, new, and well appointed. The location was great - 2 blocks to the Crystal City Metro - with a great convenience store right in the basement. Two things to keep in mind: 1) guests do not have control over the HVAC setting - when it's heating season the heat is on and controllable by thermostat; when it's cooling season the AC is on and controllable by thermostat, but if it's a HOT April day, you cannot switch to AC. Your only options are heat or no HVAC. 2) the room with the bunkbeds is not a real bedroom. It's an alcove just big enough for the bunks with a curtain separating the space from the hallway. This worked fine for our 9 & 13 year old kids who wore noise cancelling headphones to bed, but might be problematic if your kids need more space, privacy, or soundproofing. We'll definitely go back!

Two night stay to inter a family member to Arlington, which was very close via rideahare. Benefited from booking late as the cost was reduced from normal rates. Vrbo fees appeared to be less than same property on another site. The door was tricky to open, but we figured it out. Having only one key was a inconvenient, but we worked it out. Residents are not happy to have nightly guests and one was vocal about it on the elevator. Basement food store was a godsend as was underground parking. All other basic needs were met. Recommend this apartment and owner.
