Disappointment

I have stayed in several properties around the world and this one was the first one we had issues, The first full day we returned from sightseeing and there was a notice on the door that the day after we leave the person was going to be evicted. She had told us that we weren't supposed to speak with anyone in the complex, like she did not want them to know we were there. We do not think she was renting to us was in her lease. Here is a list of other issues: Cabinets had food items left by former tenants Bath rooms had used toiletries in the bathtubs Sliding glass door was filthy with finger prints Light bulbs burned out in the bathroom Stove one burner did not work light on the stove did not work, burner pans were nasty dirty There was not info how to get the tv to work using Fire TV or a password to get into NetFlix or Prime if we had accounts, no local channels in the bedrooms. If this had been our first experience with VRBO then we would not use it again but we have had good experience in Rome, Greece, Nova Scotia, Hawaii. so we will use it again.

The owner’s definition of “lavish” was different than ours.

We are frequent VRBO renters returning often to the places we’ve rented. We were looking for proximity to our new grandchild and the ability to cook Christmas dinner. Given the description and photos, this place seemed to meet our requirements. The apartment feels like a college student’s apartment; obviously decorated by mom, but maintained by someone who doesn’t really care. Upon arrival we saw the doorknob missing from one folding door and the other door of the laundry area off its track. It was requested that we remove our shoes upon entering, however the linoleum was sticky and the carpet quite soiled in places. The kitchen was not well equipped with poorly maintained and mismatched dishes and utensils. The one kitchen towel was full of holes. We were not able to adequately cook a Christmas meal in the kitchen. When we needed to use the washing machine, we discovered a comforter in the washer and a knotted mass of sheets and towels in the dryer that were still damp. The trash can in the kitchen was broken and the trash cans in the bathrooms were rusted. In the communication with the owner we were told to turn off the gas fireplace, which there was none, and to not speak to anyone that we were in a VRBO, making us uncomfortable staying there. We will not return to this location and would not recommend it to others.

We couldn’t have asked for a better vacation in DC! Devon’s place was in the best location and proximity to DC. The street by the unit had grocery store, coffee, many restaurants, walking trail! It was great!

Shirlington Village Apartment

The apartment was very nice and conveniently located next to dining, grocery, and pharmacies. Everything was within walking distance. The apartment was very clean and well decorated. Devon graciously provides coffee for guest. This is a huge convenience as most are not able to go shopping the day/night they arrive. The owner also provides a pack-n-play for little travelers, not having to bring this was incredible. For travelers vacationing in the Arlington/D.C. area this is a very quiet and well maintained apartment. Devon is very tentative and hospitable. Note, traffic can be a little difficult to manage if you are not from a city this size; leaving later in the morning (10 AM) makes a huge difference than 7-9 AM.

Clean, good location, as described.

Great location. Clean. As described. For first timers here the parking garage is alittle confusing to understand, but once you read the clear written instructions you "get it" and understand the on sight parking garage rules. Condo is great. Us and another couple went to DC to be part of the March for Life as well as do some touring, and it was perfect place for us to stay. We will stay here again! Thanks!!

Замечательное место для семейного отдыха

Просторная квартира с удобной кухней и двумя большими ванными комнатами нам очень понравилась. Нашей семье особенно понравились супер комфортные матрасы на кроватях, на которых сладко спится. Мы хорошо провели время на Новый Год. Буду рекомендовать знакомым. Хочу выразить благодарность Devon (владельцу квартиры) за чуткое отношение.

Great location and rental

We enjoyed our stay and would stay again. However, if arriving with more than than 1 vehicle, parking can be quite the challenge. Only 1 parking FOB and pass provided. Otherwise this place was convenient for our needs.

Fabulous location, very comfortable

We have rented several times in the DC area. This spot is sooo great. The neighborhood is super convenient— grocery store, coffee shop, movie theater and live theater, and 9 restaurants all within close walking distance. Metro bus stop is across the street for transport into DC. The unit is very nice and clean. Bright and cheerful colors. We never heard any noise from the neighbors. The small kitchen is complete and bedrooms and baths are large. The beds are comfy and I’m picky about beds. Good water pressure in the shower. We had a hiccup with the Wifi but the owner quickly fixed it remotely. She was very responsive and even met us at 1am when our plane arrived late! Parking was secure and we seemed to find a place close to the elevator every day. We didn’t use the patio, but it would be nice in warm weather. We hope to stay there again!

Nice place to stay; clean, friendly, and comfortable. The check-in process was a little confusing because a landmark had been moved since the pictures were taken but other than that it went just fine.

Sightseeing DC

Great, safe area to stay if you want to tour DC. We parked our car in the garage and never used it for a week. The apartment was spacious and clean, beds were comfortable, strong water pressure, washer/dryer in the unit. Devon , the property owner, was thorough with instructions. Pay attention to the pictures and directions sent to you! Many restaurants within walking distance. Highly recommend Guapos and Cafe Pizzaiolo. Harris Teeter grocery store makes delicious sub sandwiches. The bus station is across the street and you use it to head to DC. There is a worker there that will help you. You load a card with money and use it for both the bus and the metro (subway). Get a metro map that shows the different colored lines and routes. Take bus to Pentagon, then you go underground to the metro. Costs about eight dollars a day. To a “T”, there was not a rude worker on the bus or metro system. If you want to go see DC, or just hang around the village of Shirlington, you can’t go wrong with Devon’s place!

Check in

We are old and this is the first time we ever booked with VRBO. We don't use apps. Our only complaint is with the VRBO process. We would have like to be able to get the address info a bit earlier so we could get our trip routed. (We still use AAA) Devon was EXTREMELY HELPFUL in making the check in process easy for us on day of arrival.

Convenient and clean!

My husband and I enjoyed our two night stay. We received pictures as well as written directions to find our way into the complex. This made it much easier to find the condo as well as where to park. The location is convenient, spacious and clean. Devon was very responsive to our communication.
