My family of 4 stayed at Alia's place for over a month while we looked for permanent housing in the DC area. The space is a private, basement "in-law" apartment and the family lives upstairs. Our primary contact with Alia was incidental, although she was fully responsive to questions. We could often hear footsteps from the floor above and occasionally this was distracting, but with 2 kids of our own we did not find this particularly obtrusive. The space was comfortable, spacious, and had a full suite of amenities required for an extended stay. There is a full kitchen, although the oven/stove and refrigerator are located separate from a wet bar area that has the sink. Parking was easy (and free) behind the home in an alley. There is a park walking distance to the home with a splash pad and playground (great for families). We would stay again.
