the host has thought of EVERYTHING!
My husband, 14 year old, 11 year old and myself stayed here this past week. It was a great setup for the 4 of us. The master bedroom is very spacious and the guest room was perfect for our kids. The host has disposable earplugs for all the guests, a usb cord with all types of chargers connected, extension cord with many outlets and usb plugs, blankets in each of the closets and tower fans and sound machines in each room as well! In the bathroom, though small, it is fully equipped with soap/shampoo/conditioner. I loved the extra touch of having travel size Neutragena face wipes available too! There’s a full first aid kit in the bathroom and a hair dryer under the sink. I was overly impressed with this unit! The only con I thought of were the light coming in from the windows (blackout shades would’ve been nice but not completely necessary). Overall, we really enjoyed this place and would highly recommend it! It’s a bit of a drive to DC but Uber worked just fine! (We walked to the front side of the house each time for the Uber to find us since it is a bit confusing for drivers). Average cost was about $20 one way from the house to DC (capital/Smithsonian's/ touristy areas. The money you save by not staying in the city, you may spend on Uber ;)

Family visits DC
This property was a nice home away from home. It was very clean and was supplied with lots of necessities such as detergent, spices, bathroom extras. There is a parking spot and we were able to park our Chevrolet Full sized double cab truck, it was tight, but we managed it! We felt very safe in the lovely neighborhood and its location was very convenient! Definitely would stay there again.

Cozy Basement Apartment in a Great Location!
My husband, 5-year-old daughter, and I recently visited DC for a long weekend. We were very pleased with these accomodations. The two bedroom apartment was the perfect size for our homebase. It's cozy and very nicely decorated! The kitchen is well appointed with necessities. Beds were very comfortable and there were lots of extra blankets provided as well. As it is a basement apartment, you can hear the homeowners moving about upstairs but they kindly provide both white noise machines and earplugs in both bedrooms. None of us had issues sleeping.The location is also phenomenal. The house is in a quiet area. Seems very family oriented. Rock Creek Park is literally in the backyard (there's an entrance to a trail just down the alley way). The National Zoo is only about 3/4 of a mile away and the nearest metro station less than a mile away. The neighborhood as a whole is very walkable and easy to navigate. Lastly, we ordered pizza one night from Martha Dear. Highly recommend!

Charming abode adjacent to Rock Creek Park
We choose this rental due primarily to its location — with Rock Creek Park literally in the back yard. The surrounding neighborhood is also lovely. It was also half-way between a relative’s home and the Smithsonian (where we had a meeting). The unit is well appointed with two bedrooms, a kitchen, living room and washer and driver (which we really appreciated as we were on a month-long trip across the Midwest, South and DC). It was charmingly decorated and restaurants were within walking distance. A useful guide to the neighborhood was included. Necessary items were available including coffee, towels, toilet paper, etc. There is only one small TV and that is located in the living room (none in either bedroom). Others have mentioned that the unit is dark (three very small windows and two face a wall) and that is true as it is a basement apartment. Our biggest problem was attempting to find the residence using a code that you are advised to enter into your mapping program. This option failed on my phone and our taxi driver’s phone. Better to go to the address and go directly to the rear entry (which accesses the basement) via a cross street. We spent a king’s ransom on the taxi fare attempting to use the mysterious code and had to seek assistance from the property manager via phone. I would recommend this unit if you don’t need a lot of light and and want a stress-free and quiet neighborhood residence during your stay in the DC area.

Comfortable and Convenient
We greatly enjoyed our stay at the apartment near Rock Creek Park. The accommodations were attractive and comfortable, and they provided everything we needed. We especially appreciated the washer and dryer, the Smart TV, the plush towels, and the comfy bed. The location was perfect for us—lovely neighborhood, near our family, and within walking distance of the Metro, restaurants, Target, and other stores. The gracious hosts greeted us upon arrival and showed us how to access entry. They facilitated smooth communication and responded promptly by text if we had questions. We hope to stay here again!

Good space for a short stay
We enjoyed our stay at this basement-ish property. It has all the essential items, but be warned it is small. There is no outside area to sit and very few small windows to putside area. Although really like property a couple things could be improved. There were a total of 4 bath towels, no hand towels or washcloths. The French press was a fun different item for coffee but a cheap regular pot would have been a nice option to have. Beds were very comfortable and there's several stores and eateries within 10 to 20 minute walk each way. One more item that would be great to have for guests would be small grocery cart. We bought some groceries and would have got more if we had a way to get them home on the walk.

Great location
We had a great stay. Property was as listed. It was hot while we were there so the property being a basement was a plus. There is AC but you can’t control it. So if you have particular temperature requirements that might be an issue but we happened to like it the way it was. You can hear the upstairs tenant very clearly as well, but he wasn’t up at any weird hours. The neighborhood is very cool, full of character and families, seems safe. 0.7 mile walk to transit. Good restaurants nearby. You can walk into Rock Creek Park more or less out the back door.
