Our host was quickly responsive to my questions and was willing to work with me about an early check-in. The location was good for connecting with buses and the metro. The bedroom was a bit tight, but we weren’t there enough for it to be an issue. We did think that the mattress was a bit too soft. Overall it was great for the price, and we would stay there again.

Two nights

Place was clean and pretty quiet. Never needed anything other to ask about parking but the host was super helpful and quick with a response. We stayed through a Wednesday and street cleaning happens on Wednesdays so that was definitely good to know. Just sure wherever you park, read the parking signs. Thanks again for having us and helping to keep our vacation special.

Start your day at BOL cafe

Quiet, in the heart of the city. 5 to 10 minutes' walk to an excellent cafe, BOL. 20 to 25 minutes walk to Union Market where there's a variety of restaurants and kiosks including Yellow for freshly made pita.It's approximately one hour's walk to the Smithsonian museums, all of which house amazing Art, and the African American history and culture museum was top of my list; amazing.We appreciated the spaciousness of this apartment and being able to do our laundry. Slept well each night. Would like to return to this place.

Wonderful Stay!

My husband and I stayed here during our trip to DC as a part of our honeymoon. The communication with the host was great, the rental is as shown in the photos, and the location is perfect for seeing the city. Our host even left a beautiful orchid in our room as a wedding gift (thank you, again)! The place is easy to find from the street and we had no issues with parking. We will definitely stay here again when we visit DC.

Great stay!

We stayed here for 4 nights. This was perfect for us as we knew that we would be using it mostly as a place to sleep and rest after long days of walking. It was nice and clean when we arrived with all of the amenities in the description. We were able walk to the Capitol and mall but it is a pretty long walk, about 30 minutes. Most of the time we just called an Uber and saved our stamina for the attractions. Rideshare is highly recommended and only cost around 10 to take or pick us up from wherever we happened to be. The Metro train was also a convenient, inexpensive way to get around the city. As for dining, there are several nice places to eat close by to the apartment that are very easy to walk to and very good! We never met the host in person but he was available if we ever needed anything which we didn't. Overall great find for the price!

I live about 2 hrs from DC, but came here to take my daughter to a concert for her 21st bday, so I wanted it to be special. We usually stay in hotels, but they were so crazy expensive, so I checked vrbo. I am so glad I did, because THIS APT IS SO NICE!! We didn't meet the owner in person, but communicated via chat and he is so nice! The apt is under his home, but has a completely separate entrance.The door has a bolt lock with a code that he sends you the day before you get there. It was a rainy/chilly wknd, but we had no issues getting ubers or food delivery. (If you've ever stayed near Cap One Arena, you know this can be a major pain!) It has a full kitchen, but we were only there a day so only used the microwave and fridge, but it's stocked with plates and glasses and silverware and pots to cook with.I thought the bedroom didn't have a tv from pics, but it does. The bedroom was my favorite part. It has overhead lights and a pretty lamp and a window and free wifi on the tv. When we got back from the show, we ordered food and went to bed, and the bedroom was a lovely ending to the night. There's a big, soft bed with lots of pillow and blanket choices, and and air purifier in the room. I slept so well! The headboard has plugs for your phone too, which I appreciated a lot! I was nervous to book my first vrbo, but it was EXCELLENT. Saving this property because we come to DC for weekends quite a bit, and I loved it. I'd absolutely stay here again.

Cute apartment in Eckington

Convenient to my son's house, had what we needed - working heater, comfy beds (1Q, 1 couch), responsive host. We didn’t cook but could have, it's stocked. The coffeemaker, microwave, toaster all work. Only downside was low water pressure in the shower. I'd stay again when I visit my son!

Wonderful and responsive host. Was exactly as stated! Make sure to read the parking restrictions as the days of the sweeper are posted, but we did not see them. Walked to the Capitol Mall on a nice fall day. With food and grocery delivery you can enjoy and relax!

Short DC Vacay

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this location. My host, Tamba was very responsive and accommodating. The location is close to the Capitol (the center of DC), so for me as a walker, I walked everyday to the city sites I wanted to visit. The location is a short walk to the Metro, which was also very convenient The accommodations were very comfortable and cozy, and I felt very safe in the rental and the neighborhood. I plan to return to DC in the new year, and plan to stay at Tamba's rental property again.

The walkup to the entrance was not clean. Wrappers and trash by the front door. On entering the apartment it was very nice. We needed more towels and they were sent down right away. Everything worked well and it was very comfortable. The bike rental was just a few feet away. Overall we enjoyed our stay!

Clean, spacious, comfortable and owners are very responsive. Things that would make it excellent: working higher wattage microwave, shower caddy for soap, shampoo etc, working clock. Most of all, if entry was painted n cleaned it would greatly improve first impression. The darkness and dirt and trash at the entrance belied the great interior, was off putting n actually scary. Interior was great, spacious n comfy. Owners were responsive

Comfortable and cozy

My adult child and I stayed here for a few days recently. The property was clean and cozy. We had no difficulty with finding on the street parking and had a parking permit ready for us upon arrival. Of note, we stayed on a Sat - Tues and were unaffected by street sweeping days. The kitchen had enough cookware for our needs, we did use the oven, a frying pan, the microwave, and the coffeemaker (a lot!). There are several local restaurants available as well. The bed was very comfortable. The futon was adequate although my teenager complained that it was hard (it is a futon, this is rather expected). The shower was very nice even if it is a bit small. The kitchen also is very tight but again, this is an expectation in an area where space is at an extreme premium. The owner was quick to respond to questions that I had during our stay and the check in and out process was extremely easy.

Note the signs for street cleaning days before parking; we had no issue there. The address that popped up on the Maps site the day before was for the VRBO across the street, but Tambor got us straightened out. You may just want to check the address when you message ahead of time. The apartment is clean and welcoming. We enjoyed our stay.

1st time using vrbo

Be aware of the parking policies if you are taking/using a car-just get clarity on the days and how long you can park from the host.This was our first time ever using a vrbo and it was definitely a learning experience-it is not like a hotel where you can talk to someone immediately and get help.
