Cozy basement apartment, very clean and bright and comfortable. On a quiet street with convenient parking and still close to everything. No stove or kitchen sink but has large refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker. Very responsive and friendly hosts. We really enjoyed our stay!

This is a lovely holiday base in a quiet suburban neighbourhood which was safe to walk around on foot. Hosts live in a separate part of the building and couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful. The apartment is clean, stylish and homely. We used Ubers
to get around as it’s just outside the areas we wanted to visit in downtown Alexandria and Washington DC but absolutely loved staying thereto get

Great location for Nationals games or DC area sight seeing. If all you need is a safe place to lay your head and not bleed out your wallet, this place is a simple, no frills to do just that. Shower was roomy with great pressure. Beds were ok. You do have to walk thru one room, then thru the bathroom, to the twin beds room but wasn’t a big deal for us and our teen boy. No kitchen sink but we didn’t eat in. That’s the beauty of a trip away. Local place for custard and food were awesome. Explored DC without any traffic honestly because you don’t need to take major highways to get there. Would stay again for more Nats baseball and exploring. Host will greet you as you are staying in a shared residence. A true quaint neighborhood.

I loved my stay with DK and Polina! It's a beautiful and clean place in a quiet neighborhood with tons of great things to do within a half hour radius! The bed was super comfortable all the amenities were perfect! DK and Polina were so friendly and attentive - it was great to get to know them! Check in was super easy, and they gave me some great ideas about what to do while I was in NOVA, and even traffic tips to avoid the Beltway backups!
I wish I had had more time in my trip to hang out with these wonderful hosts! I will definitely be back again!

We were visiting George Washington's Mt Vernon House. This two-bedroom basement apartment was located very close by and in a very nice residential neighborhood. The apartment looked like new construction and was very clean and nicely decorated. It was very hot and humid out, but our apartment was exceptionally cool and comfortable. Our host was great - friendly, helpful and always available.
Thank you for a great visit!

0 complaints! Comfortable, quiet, clean, hospitable. Air condition worked great. Shower was awesome. Didn’t feel like a basement. Would definitely recommend for families not needing to cook. They even showed the kids the chickens in the backyard. Would stay here again no question.

The hosts greeted us as we arrived and showed us the accommodations, which were lovely. We only stayed one night but it was cozy. We went into town for dinner and had a nice meal. On Sunday evening you did not have to pay at the meters. We were very comfortable; the bed was soft and comfortable, and we slept well. Our host answered questions quickly and did not require any special tasks for our exit. The property had a beautiful garden area. We will stay again if in the area again.

Although the bathroom is awkwardly placed in between two bedrooms (so that those in one bedroom must pass through the bathroom to get to the kitchen or to leave the apartment, which is difficult if the bathroom is being used) and there is no kitchen, there is a refrigerator, microwave, dining room table, couch with large screen television, comfy beds, closets, and an ample bathroom with a great water flow shower. Clean towels and shampoo are provided. The rental cost was quite reasonable. In all, we enjoyed our stay there, the hosts were friendly, and the place is close to Mount Vernon, restaurants, Old Town Alexandria, and Washington, D.C.
Recommended? Definitely.
