My 20-year-old son and I stayed at the Urban Cottage for six nights when visiting DC for both business and pleasure. The layout was a perfect arrangement for us - I had the bedroom at the back of the house all to myself and he had the front room. The couch made into a double bed and was adequately comfortable for him. Having a television in both areas was a real plus. Although we didn't do much cooking, the kitchen is stellar. It has everything you need with modern appliances. The house was very clean when we arrived with an good supply of sheets and towels. There are lovely touches throughout that give it a "boutique hotel" feeling. It didn't seem like we were staying in another person's home - which I didn't want. Rather, it felt like it was set up just for our needs. It's definitely in a neighborhood location, so nicely quiet. Access to the bus and metro is all very convenient; some walking is required, and we sometimes chose to take a taxi/Uber. All in all, we preferred getting away from the busier, more touristy areas. Jennifer was super helpful with suggestions and the appropriate amount of communication. I would absolutely stay here again!
