This unit was just as advertised. We really enjoyed the quiet apartment, the amenities such as thoughtful kitchen supplies and cooking equipment, and the bedroom closet with a small chest of drawers. We felt like we were home there, with comfortable beds, nice linens, clear instructions and fast responses from our host. The unit is nicely laid out, with new appliances - very well- appointed. We’d stay there again.

We adored this modernized brownstone townhome! The host was very easy to communicate with and offered wonderful restaurant recommendations. Our check-in process was simple, the home was pristine, and it was conveniently located within walking distance to both a metro station and various food spots. We would definitely stay here again!

This was very well kept property less than 10 minutes walk from multiple metro stops. We enjoyed the quiet walkable neighborhood close to The Howard University which made it easy to walk to all of our graduates events.
