A disappointing stay
Unfortunately, this stay was not pleasant. I've never stayed at a VRBO where I, the client, felt the owners weren't willing to take care of things excellently. Same with the other 4 ladies who stayed. I was expecting to relax on this trip, but that did not happen. As the paying client, I do not usually handle fixing issues within the unit…the communication beforehand was inconsistent and was a lot of work compared to other stays, even with some special requests - like asking for a blender and an early check-in and late check out. We got the early and late checking in and out, but the blender was not in our place. The wifi did not work for all 5 of us the entire stay!! The owner came over and said it worked fine for her… all 5 of us (paying clients) couldn’t get it to work, and it was put on us as if it was our issue. The extra sheets were in the dryer and had moleskins from someone else on them, and the pillows were dirty. It really only sleeps four comfortably and 5 with an air mattress. There was no welcome guide or instructions to help navigate the temperature (which was also a nightmare), neighborhood, wifi info, etc. The garage is graffitied out… overpriced stay and location. There is much room for improvement. Did I mention the fridge went out, & we were offered ice, but I had to stay up later to get it after a long day in the sun? When asking for compensation for all of these issues & more it was shut down quickly. Highly do not recommend it.

A great place to stay in the city
We felt comfortable and safe in this 2nd story apartment in this vintage DC rowhouse. Thought we would use the Metro but Ubdered everywhere with ease. Hosts were inviting and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Nice Stay w/ Some Minor Inconveniences
Overall our stay was pretty good. The apartment looked as expected from the listing and the location was great. We did encounter a couple of instances where communication could have been better (check-in info wasn't received until I reminded the hosts pretty late the night before; I also had to follow up after a day when I didn't get a response to a question about checkout). The apartment was clean, except for the floors. There was a good deal of what seemed to be dog hair all over the rug in the living room that was getting on our socks and clothes, so it seems like they may not have vacuumed before we arrived. They also leave very cheap, paper-thin toilet paper for their guests like you would see in an office. It's a small thing, but it doesn't make you feel particularly welcome in the space and send a message that the hosts are cutting some corners. I'd recommend bringing your own TP if possible. None of these complaints are immediate deal breakers, and I would potentially stay here again. They were just minor inconveniences that could make a big impact if addressed by the hosts. We appreciate them hosting us in their space regardless.

Modern Penthouse
A lovely flat with lots of windows and comfortable surroundings. Caroline was easy to reach and very helpful. She even ran over a baby gate for the two-year-old in our group. Only comment would be that the "double beds" in the living room was a recliner couch that really didn't work well as a bed. There was an air mattress available, but our twenty-something chose to sleep on the couch as is. The P6 bus was right outside the door and got us around well.

Great stay overall
The hosts were very communicative which was very helpful. The apartment is centrally located, so it was easy to walk to most of the activities we participated in. The apartment is older, so came with some oddities (e.g., uneven floors, a hint of a smell, etc.). The assigned internet was not stable, but the host provided an alternate network that we were able to connect to.

Awesome Home for enjoying all DC has to offer
We’re not out at night people so we looked forward to coming back to this bright and comfortable penthouse after museums and sightseeing. We ordered Chinese and Jamaican from nearby restaurants and ate at the Pup and The People twice. Great all around spot to be your home in DC. The hosts are great and extremely thoughtful with wine and snacks for us on arrival and tips for food and things to do. Thanks so much!

We used this as a base camp to walk into most all the big sites. It worked for our group of 6 adults perfectly!!

Lovely Stay!
It was a great spacious apartment, open concept kitchen and living room. Lots of sunlight. Great couch for lounging and comfortable beds. Perfect for a family vacation! The nearby bar “Pub and the People” was one of our favorites. Will and Caroline were very responsive and were able to accommodate us after short notice. Would definitely book again, hopefully in the summer to take advantage of the outdoor space.
