Wonderful apartment near Logan Circle

Beautiful, eclectically decorated space with lots of thoughtful touches, including locally sourced coffees, teas, and toiletries, plus an interesting collection of books, DVDs, and games. Very clean. Really nice kitchen for the size, with upscale appliances. Parking was relatively easy (weekend). Good location and fairly quiet for DC downtown. As others have noted, this is a basement apartment and also shower is small. Not negatives to us but good to know. We had a few communication glitches initially with managing company and interface with VRBO website, but the company was easy to work with and everything was resolved in a timely manner. The stay itself was perfect.

Comfortable small apartment "London basement" style

The apartment (living room, dining area, work nook, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom) was perfect for a single business traveler and I suspect it works well for a small family or couple on holiday. Owner's detailed instructions were very helpful. The residential area of the house is close to some restaurants, stores/shops, Metro stops and major streets--transportation time or availability was not an issue at all. The media/television screen, for those who would use it (I didn't much) was easy to use, and it had a library of DVD's that can be useful. (I miss having the main PBS channel on the common channel lineup, but I have access to that channel by computer, and that is not a comment on this apartment in particular. I'd certainly rent the place again when traveling to central DC.

D.C. visit

The apartment was comfortable and clean and the photos represented it well. Great shower pressure and well equipped kitchen. The location was perfect for a walk to the Smithsonian museums (about 30-40 mins) or a quick ride-share drive. VRBO never sent our check in info but the property managers were available by phone quickly to provide the check-in code.

Close to Convention Center

We had a nice stay here. The space did its job in providing a place to rest after long days of volleyball at the convention center. The parking permit was a great addition and we didn't find it hard to find a space.

We had a wonderful two night stay. What a great location: a quiet safe neighborhood with great restaurants nearby and a half hour walk (or quick, moderately priced Uber) to the National Mall/major museums and Union Station. The apartment was nicely decorated. clean and had everything we needed. We will come back!

Give yourself to park when you come in, finding a spot can be tough, but it’s great having a parking pass to use! I didn’t realize how to turn up the temp night 1 (use the remote on both heaters!!!) but they promptly fixed it the next afternoon. Would be happy staying here again!

A Perfect Getaway!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an amazing stay at this VRBO! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the cleanliness and attention to detail. The property was exactly as described! The location was perfect—close to local attractions yet tucked away enough for a peaceful retreat. The corner grocery store, only 1.5 blocks walking distance, made it easy to buy daily supplies 😀. The DCBikeshare - The e-bike share is just a short walk away, making it incredibly easy to hop on a bike. The availability of e-bikes enhanced our overall experience, allowing us to enjoy the scenery and fresh air while getting from the local neighborhood to Mt Vernon subway station or points of interest. We loved the cozy atmosphere. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it easy to prepare breakfast. The living room is a fantastic bonus for relaxing in the evenings.

This was a convenient and relatively quiet location for meetings in NW downtown. It was wonderful to have access to coffee, tea and kitchen facilities prior to heading out for a full day of meetings. It is also close to neighborhood restaurants for dining at the end of a busy day. Thank you.

Great location with short walk to the Metro subway.

Great place for the two of us. Very nice, clean, and quiet. We were able to walk to local restaurants, shop at local market, and walk to the Metro to go and see the sites. These bonuses were important to us, being our sixties. Super convenient. We recommend this one!
