We were a party of 3 that stayed for 4 nights. We did not even use the bedroom next to the windows so we did not have any issues with street noise as others have said. The house was really large for just the 3 of us. The beds were very comfortable; the house is old with some old quirks, but that goes with the area. We enjoyed the artist vibe of the area and ate at some of the closer restaurants including the Dunbar (expensive but amazing); Espita (just ok); and All purpose Pizza (really great for the price). We walked to all the attractions and easily walked about 25,000 steps a day. Anytime we wanted an Uber, they were available within minutes. Defiantly a mix of cultures, and vibe on the streets and was exposed to many interesting characters, but never felt unsafe. I would not hesitate to stay here with 3 couples or even 3 families unless I planned to cook my own meals. However there is a big grocery store very close by if you want snacks or beverages. We did not have a car or rent a car for the entire vacation, and found everything we needed including Mount Vernon to be a reasonable Uber ride away.
