Perfect Accommodation for Family

Our family stayed here for 6 nights to attend our granddaughter’s graduation at American University, and associated celebrations nearby. It was a very well appointed, comfortable, and well located home, with excellent communication from our host whenever we had any questions or concerns. We would highly recommend it.

Wonderful place to stay

This house was located in a quiet, beautiful and friendly neighborhood. It took about 15 min to walk to the metro. There were several good restaurants between the metro and the house where we could stop to eat on our way back to the house after a day of sight seeing. Aldi and Walgreen were also very close to the house. We loved the coffee!! Mark was very attentive to our needs and quick to respond. We would most definitely stay in this house again!

Thanksgiving Stay

Our visit to our daughter’s home in Alexandria for theThanksgiving holiday was made super special by our stay at Mark’s house. Mark made the processes of check in and out easy and was very attentive during our stay. The house was roomy and well equipped for our adult family and in a friendly, well kept neighborhood with ample street parking. Having a fenced in backyard for our small dogs was extremely convenient. We would definitely like to stay at Mark’s again on future visits to Alexandria.

Clean and Comfortable in Alexandria

Our family loved our stay at this house; it was located conveniently close to restaurants and stores, and was a short 15 minute walk from Braddock Station. We visited all the DC monuments and museums during our stay, and really appreciated how well outfitted this house was. It had comfortable beds, furniture, kitchen appliances, and plenty of awesome coffee that we took advantage of each morning. Highly recommend this for families visiting DC that want to be nearby but still in a family friendly, quiet neighborhood. We walked to dinner at local restaurants most nights and really enjoyed the local spots.

Very nice, clean, and comfortable. Highly recommended

We stayed as a family of 4 for 3 days and enjoyed every moment we spent in the house. We had some good memories from Alexandria in the past and decided to stay in the city while taking care of our daughter’s college relocation in DC. Commute was ok and we found the house a nice, comfortable and welcoming place to get back to from a day full of adventures in DC. Kitchen is extraordinarily well stock and ready for you to enjoy cooking and serving. Huge Collection of high quality coffees and equipment to brew your heart out… a nice back yard table to enjoy your morning coffee and evening… clean, spacious and fully furnished bedrooms, two great bathrooms with well stock towels and soaps and shampoo for an entire tribe… sparkling clean sheets.. large screen TV sets in each room… The house was inviting you to stay and enjoy your stay. The neighborhood is calm, clean and great with store fronts and restaurants in walking distance (5mins). The host was/is super nice and helpful and communicative, adding some personal touch to the nice experience that our stay was. We are going back, and I recommend you try it too.

Girl’s Trip

What a beautiful home and what an amazing host! We decided to have a girls trip weekend in DC and we settled on staying in the Delray area of Alexandria, Virginia. The area is fantastic and every morning we walked to the local coffee shops for breakfast. The neighborhood is beautiful and the residents are very friendly. Just a few minutes drive from DC. By far one of the highlights of the trip was our host, Mark. He was very friendly and provided timely communication. The check in and check out processes were seamless. It was very clear to all of us that this host knows what he’s doing when it comes to furnishing a residence for out of town guests. Highly recommend booking with this host!
