We have rented countless times for vacation rentals and my family loved the WA DC CONVENIENCE home. If you are looking to stay in DC, this is the perfect place to rent. We didn’t rent a car and only used the DC Metro. We were close enough to walk to The National Zoo! If you stay here and use The Metro you will be able to see all the museums and memorials you want (as long as everyone in your party can walk a few miles a day :)) We were thankful we didn’t have to rent a car. Traffic can be really bad in DC and the surrounding states - as well as parking! So if you do take a car be aware. Nearly all the museums and memorials are free but we did take some tours. I highly recommend the walking tour at Arlington (because if you take the tram it only stops at 2 stops and you walk around there for 4 hours wandering trying to find the grave sites+ our guide helped anyone find a family members gravestone and tons of facts and info). We also did the electric car day tour memorials/statues. If you want to save your feet on a hot day, this is a great tour. We also did the moonlight tour- which was my favorite. If you get a chance, do a walking Georgetown tour. We did The Spies of Georgetown and it was great. The neighborhood we were in had all 1800’s style homes and many with gas lamps in front. It’s like we stepped in a time machine. Our family averaged about 2-3 museums a day but we still didn’t see everything. I’m happy to say we will definitely be back and we will definitely be staying at this house (as long as it isn’t booked already!) I can’t say enough about the location of this home. We walked about 5-7 min to The Metro each day and we were off! The metro is easy to use (easier than say the NY subway 😱) I’m just saying don’t be afraid to take transit- we had no issues whatsoever. Also be aware that if you try and use a ride share app like Lyft or Uber the cost is huge and you might not even save much time (we used Lyft once from National Harbor back to DC $50). It was great coming home to a beautiful house. The colors of the home are neutral and calming. There is a lovely massage chair but I was so tired I didn’t get to use it. We were usually crashing from being so tired or hurrying to rush out the door. The main bedroom and bathroom are fantastic. The main bed was so comfy! The bathroom was just chef’s kiss ✨ perfect. It’s a double shower and they are the huge rain showers (vaulted ceilings make for a dramatic and beautiful presentation). Plus there is also a detachable smaller shower head on each side for the showers. The kids’ bedrooms were also good (I didn’t hear any complaints, so I know that’s a good sign 👍). The dining room table was nice because often times our large family doesn’t have enough place settings but this was perfect. The kitchen is beautiful with new appliances and gas oven/stovetop. The fridge was huge and room to put all our groceries (we tried for eating at home in the am and one meal out for dinner- save some $$). Adelina was very prompt with any questions I had! Also we loved having a washer and dryer. It’s nice to just bring a few outfits in our carry-on bags. There is central air/AC throughout the house and in each of the bedrooms a supplemental unit in the windows when it was really hot. The living room was great with plenty of space to fit a large family. The neighbors were very friendly and we always saw people walking their dogs. The home is in a quiet, nice and charming neighborhood. I can’t think of a reason not to rent this house.
FABULOUS, FABULOUS, FABULOUS!
