Extremely clean, great location, peaceful neighborhood, easy access to DC bus/Metro routes!
Hugh was a wonderful, attentive host during our week-long stay in the DC area. He is extremely responsive and helpful and saw to it that our stay the very best that it could have been. This living space is well-appointed and exceptionally clean, nestled in a quiet neighborhood away from the bustle of downtown -- but all the DC sites are an easy bus/Metro ride away. The wifi is excellent. I work from home, so took my laptop with me so that I could work and participate in Zoom calls and so forth. Had no wifi issues whatsoever. Super comfortable mattresses as well! So much nicer than staying at a hotel. This was a "home away from home" for us, and we hope to stay again the next time we're in the DC area!

Great place to stay!
Hugh’s house is a great place to stay! I stayed at his house with my mother and son (11 years old), his house is very clean, comfortable, and in a safe neighborhood. Hugh was very easy to reach and responded quickly to my messages. He gave us super helpful information about the neighborhood and transportation (using Uber, the metro, etc) which was so beneficial when making our daily plans. We loved our stay!

My sisters and I thoroughly enjoyed the amazing landscape for this VRBO. One sister has Parkinsons and her therapy is walking briskly up hill for 30 min per day. We were able to find suitable hills in the neighborhood which was safe, friendly and gorgeous! This VRBO is immaculate and the cushy carpet throughout was ideal for our morning floor exercises. We highly recommend this home for a DC visit...close to metro and Whole Foods and Chinese takeout.

Clean, quiet, and well supplied
My husband, I and 2 adult children stayed for visiting our relatives. The host was responsive and helpful. Lots of well thought-out supplies. It worked out for our 2 night stays. For longer stays, it'd be easier if a kitchen sink, a freezer, and a cooktop are available. The kitchenette was converted from the master bedroom closet. It doesn't have a common space, so we gather in the master bedroom. It works for a family; our adult kids prefer having a separate common room. But overall, it works well for having a clean, quiet and comfortable rooms. Parking is great!

Perfect retreat for the end of busy days
We were 4 friends traveling for rehearsals at the nearby Landon School, so were gone all day, and looking for a restful place in the evenings. This location was perfect, and the host was amazing. Amenities were beyond anything I have seen in other VRBO's, and the host goes out of his way to make sure you feel welcome. Would give 10 stars if I could.

Hugh did everything possible to make our family feel welcome and able to enjoy our visit to DC. The space is so clean, inviting, and charming- we loved it. Great proximity to the DC sights. We chose to drive in to the metro station for our daytime activities, but drove downtown at night to see the monuments as Hugh recommended, and had no issues. We will be back!

This property was very clean, comfortable, spacious, and quiet!!! After spending the days exploring DC this property was a wonderful retreat to relax and recharge before heading out again! Hugh and his housekeeper were excellent about communicating with us t/o our stay and making sure we were comfortable and settled in. If we needed anything at all Hugh was very prompt about getting back with us! Hugh also provided a list of nearby restaurants and shops for us to explore, which was most helpful! Hugh, thank you so much for making this a very much enjoyable experience and helping our family build lasting memories! If we are ever in the DC area again we will definitely stay here! - Vicki
