We stayed in this home as a party of 7, to include 3 generations of family members and we really enjoyed it!
Another review mentioned that the house isn't in a great area, however, we beg to differ! We arrived before check-in to park our cars (as we had to get to a ball game at Nat's Park at the same time as check-in). Anna had explained to us that it would be ok to park out front prior to check in. As we were coordinating how to get to the ballpark, a neighbor was leaving her home and graciously walked over to welcome us and ask if we needed any help with anything. We explained we were discussing public transportation, and she gave us great information about the buses, the Metro app, and an overall great feeling for the neighborhood. There are tons of people out walking dogs, and exercising most of the day. People are friendly. There is a great market on the other side of the university and lots of nice shops nearby, like Trader Joe's.
My 72-year-old father had no issue with having to go upstairs or downstairs for bathroom use. The main floor is very accommodating for a large family, with two dining tables and a well appointed kitchen. we ended up using doordash for our meals as we were only there two nights, but if we come back, we plan to grocery shop and prepare meals in the home.
The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. The basement level is nice and private with its own kitchenette, if you're wanting separate spaces for two different families.
We arrived home on our first night after quiet hours and ordered Chinese food (Jerry's was delicious) and I was worried about our noise level with the rules about noise. Even with 7 of us around the table enjoying normal conversation and laughing, we never had an issue with being too loud. Conversely, the neighbors on either side were equally as quiet.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home and hope to revisit next year. Anna was very fast with returning messages, and we appreciated her help with our parking concerns. We had no issues finding spots over the weekend, even the couple of times we used a car. There are side streets for parking too.
We felt the location was great for the price. We used the metro easily, although it is almost a mile to the nearest station, which we didn't find overly long. When we go to DC, we expect to get our steps in!
