Great place to stay in a great neighborhood!

This charming basement apt was perfect. All the comforts needed, very clean, lots of amenities! This is one of the best neighborhoods in DC— so walkable to about 1000 great restaurants, parks, wonderful walks and nearby metro! It’s a perfect place to stay! The apt has a very comfortable layout and lots of space. It’s a great place to stay when in DC!

Delightful

"We had a wonderful stay at this basement apartment! It was spotlessly clean, and the location was incredibly convenient with the metro just a short walk away. There were plenty of dining options nearby, which made it easy to grab a bite. The bed was very comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep, and the host was absolutely delightful and responsive throughout our stay. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient stay!"

Cool and quiet

This apartment is welcoming, quiet, clean, and spacious. Our stay was a result of us needing to find adequate air conditioning close to our existing home in DC. Not only did this place provide wonderful air conditioning, but it was also a wonderful place to work comfortably as well as relax and feel like we were on a vacation just a few short streets away. We enjoyed walks at night exploring the winding streets and character filled architecture of the surrounding neighborhood.

Nice apartment in a residential neighborhood

We live nearby and were looking for a place to stay while we were having work done on our condominium. This fit the bill nicely. It was comfortable and the kitchen was nicely appointed so that we could cook. It was fun to explore a slightly different neighborhood and find some new places. Check in was easy and the apartment looked great when we checked in. It’s a good size for one or two people. As reported, parking can be a challenge.

Long weekend in Adams Morgan

The place is very clean and quiet. The bed is comfortable and plenty of space for the 2 of us. Location is great! You are in a quiet neighborhood just a short few blocks yo all the action. Loved being able to walk down 18th through Adams Morgan to Dupont Circle. Lots of great bars and restaurants to choose from. Very convenient to coffee shops or grocery stores. Our favorites were Solluna for coffee, The Greenzone for the best hummus and green cocktails. Astoria and Agora were both great food! My husband loved running in rock creek and through the zoo every morning. Perfect location and safe area.

Perfect for DC vacation

This was a great location for a week in DC. The apartment was clean, everything worked, and it looked like the photos. There were two sets of towels and a washer and dryer. The bath products were great! We slept very soundly on the comfortable bed after days of walking the city. There were pots and pans in the kitchen, a full set of silverware, and a dishwasher (with detergent). The neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe. All in all, we were very happy to stay here and would use the location again. One note: The entrance is a tight fit--if you are a bigger person, you might need a different place to stay.

Bright and comfortable

The unit is very quiet and comfortable and provides all that you need. The pictures in the listing are accurate which is not always the case. For a basement unit it is very bright with nice windows. Neighborhood is super convenient. The entrance is quite tight and oddly designedso if you are very tall or need a walker I do not recommend this unit. Otherwise Enjoy /we did

Great Location

We selected this VRBO due to its proximity to our daughter's apartment in ADMO. The pictures are very representative of the apartment and it was clean and efficient. Th entry is very narrow so if traveling with large luggage just be aware. We had one issue with water temp (not hot) in the shower and the owners tried to get it adjusted but never was fixed before we left. One funny element of this place is the toilet leans to the left. Again not an issue but just be aware. Overall its a fine place to stay, could just use some small details attended to.

This was my second stay. Was a great stay per my last visit. The team is super responsive whenever I expressed a reasonable need. The Adams Morgan area is great and very convenient. Great restaurants. Safeway is right around the corner. Metro is close by. Parking is tough so I opt for Uber and Metro. Great walking though so the option is there. Anyway, I will stay here again.

Great place and host!

We loved staying at this place! It is so charming and ha everything we needed. The bed was very confortable, we cooked and we did laundry and all worked well. The little living room is so charming! (The one thing I would recommend is to check the sofa bed because it’s in need of some update). The location couldn’t be better and even the neighbors are kind and pleasant.
