Great home base in Chevy Chase

The property is clean, comfortable, and well appointed. It is in a great neighbourhood, with easy access to bus and metro transportation, groceries, restaurants, etc. The hosts were friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our meal at Buck’s Fishing and Camping on Connecticutt, and take out lunches from Broad Branch market.

It really is the best!

My husband and I stayed three nights, very close to our kids in Chevy Chase. We were impressed with the way the apartment is supplied with everything you could possibly need, from spices to shampoos to dog bowls! It feels as if the host thought about everything she might need if SHE were staying there, and supplied it all! Directions were helpful, parking was easy, check-in and check-out were painless. We will definitely be looking to stay here again.

4th of July Holiday

My wife and two sons (5&7) spent a week here and it was a great spot for us to explore the city from. It was convenient to all the things we wanted to do. The apartment is well stocked with all the things you would need while away from home. We had our 5 month old puppy with us and we actually looked forward to walking her around the neighborhood and parks.

Extremely clean and well appointed property

This property was one of the cleanest we've stayed in, with everything one would need. Books, cookbooks, spices, laundry and cooking supplies. Quiet, comfortable, and easy check-in, check-out. The host was prompt in getting back to us with questions we had prior to arrival. We were there a short time visiting friends, but enjoyed being able to walk to restaurants and surrounding residential neighborhoods. Parking available on the street or next door.

DC getaway

Great place to stay with easy access to Connecticut Ave or for short trips into Maryland. Garden basement was very clean and great lighting throughout. Shower was tight, but probably not uncommon for city remodels with limited space. On street parking worked well and was very close to house entrance. Nice size private bedroom and a family room with additional sleeping options if needed. Also appreciated this unit as being pet friendly as neighborhood is great for walking dogs.

Just not for me.

The basement is cold, the little shower stall is too tight, the bed too soft...not hotel close to hotel standards and both my first and last Vrbo rental.

Perfect location and accommodating hosts

Katy and Steve's place is ideally located and we really enjoyed the accessibility of the Chevy Chase Circle neighborhood to the delights of Washington D.C. and the Maryland suburbs. The parking arrangement just down the street was super convenient too, and the D.C. Metro Red line is an easy 15 minute walk away. They were also very welcoming of our dog (they are dog owners themselves) and there are lots of nearby nice streets and parks to take your pet for a walk. The only negative is that you should be aware that (as represented) this is a basement apartment. The sound insulation is not particularly robust, and movements and footsteps on the main floor of the house can be heard pretty clearly in the basement. However, the hosts were careful to maintain quiet hours from about 10:15 pm through the night. They are also aware that the sound reverberates and are taking steps to lessen the impact through additional carpet padding, etc.

College touring in DC

The unit was clean and comfortable with everything that one would need. Extra blankets was a plus. A heater in the closet really helped as one day was rainy and cold. The only negative was shower was tiny and a little difficult to use and a very strong smell of chlorine in the bathroom that sort of penetrated entire unit. Maybe a different cleaning solution can be used. Otherwise our stay was great

Basement unit

I want to provide an honest summary to aid others in property selection. The positives of this unit: location, washer/dryer & small kitchen. Negatives: this is a tiled basement unit. We could hear walking above us both late into evening and in the morning. The twin bed is an older piece of furniture with an uncomfortable mattress within a few feet of the door to the unit. The second twin is a roll out trundle also with old appearing mattress. There was an indoor/outdoor thin “rug” in that space and otherwise entire unit is tiled. The bathroom was the smallest I’ve seen in a rental and the windows potentially could allow persons outside to see into the unit. The key was left in the mailbox (not in a lockbox) and the first night I was unable to sleep as I was worried about safety (who else knew about the key in mailbox system) as there is a bus stop yards away. The neighborhood is great but for $500/2 nights (w tax etc) I think a hotel is a better choice in this case

Beautifully decorated, and furnished. Cozy and friendly space

This was one of our best experiences in DC area. I visit often to meet with my college student daughter and need 2-3 days to relax and focus on why I am here. This place was just the right place to settle and unravel from a busy day. Not it was clean, furnished with the best furniture, appliance, and amenities, which offers a true welcoming and homely experience, but also is decorated with nice and carefully curated art in a smart and interesting way. Welcoming to your body and soul. We had a bit of difficulty finding the entry (it is the basement floor of the property in the address and you have to go around the house to find it) but once entered the home we didn't want to come out! Kitchenware were great, the bathroom was clean and well stocked with high quality hygienics. We loved our stay and the host was exceptionally generous allowing us to stay few hours extra for my daughter to take her virtual interview before we check out. we certainly appreciated the experience and recommend it.
