The Space:
Four bedrooms: one Queen with adjustable base (so you can raise or lower the head and foot, set to zero gravity, etc.), and a second Queen that doubles as a home office with standing desk, large PC monitor (bring your cables) and printer. Third bedroom has a twin and lots of storage space. It's a small room, best for a child or someone who doesn't need a lot of bedroom space. It's cozy! Upstairs full bath recently renovated with freshly glazed tub for soaking and lights that dim.

Fully equipped open-floor plan gourmet kitchen with granite counter tops, good knives and cookware. Newly re-decorated living space. Mid-century modern style. Leather recliner. Beautifully landscaped, fenced back yard with fire pit, eclectic outdoor furniture, and lovely deck and fence lighting.

Lower level den with fold out couch (we provide a foam mattress topping and all linens), second desk for working, tv, adjacent full bathroom, washer and dryer, and access to back yard. Dogs are not allowed on this level.

PARKING: Street parking is always available either right in front or within a few spaces.

CHECKIN: Self check-in with door code. We can always be reached by message or phone.

Regular and decaf coffee and teas. Friendly neighbors.

We have a Ring camera installed at the front door for added security.

The Del Ray Delight offers the convenience of being close to the city in arguably the DMV's hippest neighborhood with a nice escape in the evenings. There is a noise machine perfect for sleeping children.

Come and enjoy all the area has to offer!

Next time I will be sure to ask about the size of the bed! Otherwise - a great stay.

I needed a less expensive option than the $1000/ night rates in National Harbor for a convention of some 8000 people, and this place was perfect. Avoiding rush hours... a Lyft ride varied from 12-14 minutes to the Gaylord in national harbor. (I hit rush hour one time and that took 40 minutes.) Nice mid-century decor, well updated. Really efficient well-executed nicely-updated eat-in kitchen. I didn't utilize the backyard at all, but it seemed to offer reasonable space to relax outside - but not a lot of space for kids to runaround, for example). Easy walk to a dozen+ breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. Host was an effective communicator. The only thing i will that might be construed as a negative... the bathroom has no counterspace, just a flat toilet top for my toiletries. It didn't bother me, as i just accept that as being part of staying in this beautiful early 1900s neighborhood (and this is in a really quaint/beautiful / walkable neighborhood) and there is simply no way to accommodate counter space in this bathroom. I would stay here again in a heartbeat, and would look forward to walking and trying a few more restaurants in this area.
