The property was a very lovely old historic home and well maintained. It was easy walking to the Alexandria waterfront, as well as many places nearby for dining. And off street parking was a bonus! My family enjoyed it very much!

So glad we decided to stay here vs the hotel recommended by our Conference. The house was very spacious with a newer kitchen, large dining room and comfortable living room. Also, really enjoyed the location near (but not on) King Street. Host is a great communicator and accommodating. we had a wonderful time at this house and would highly recommend to others.

This unit is ideal for families who want to be near the restaurants and shops of Old Town Alexandria, and within 1 mile (all level, easy walking) of a Metro stop into DC. It worked great for us. The house was immaculate and well appointed. We had a problem with the air conditioning, and the host had a repair man there withih an hour. We were very well satisfied. .

This charming townhouse was perfectly located in Old Town Alexandria; great neighborhood close to excellent shopping and dining. It was perfect for me and my two friends. Would highly recommend! Although we ate our meals out, it was a well-furnished kitchen with a great coffee station. Two spacious bedrooms upstairs and updated bathrooms made everything so comfortable. Huge thanks to Vatsana for providing extensive information about the area - groceries, restaurants, sights, wine stores etc. So sorry we forgot to sign the guest book - we left fairly early this morning and it got away from us! Would definitely book again if I return to Alexandria.

Great location close to the Old Town Trolley which takes you to the Metro. Easy walk from the house to all of the shopping and restaurants on King Street. Also close to historic Christ Church and other Alexandria landmarks. Our family with four children enjoyed using this as our home base during our Washington, DC vacation. Vat is a superb host and is very responsive. Would definitely plan to return!

This was our third stay at the home. Inside was as great as always. The drive and back parking had some snow and ice through no fault of the owner. Throughout Old Town there were similar conditions. There had been work to make some parking possible. Since the ice was so thick, that must have been extremely difficult. The owner is wonderful to deal with.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in old Towne Alexandria. The house was great. Having the off street parking was huge. Everything else is street parking. The neighborhood is awesome. Safe, clean, and active. You're only a 5 minute walk from the main strip that is lined with restaurants, coffee shops, and stores-- clear to the water front. With a child, we made the whole walk to the water in 15 minutes. Jeni's ice cream is minutes from the house and our kid loved going each night. The house was well decorated, modern, and functional. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen (you will need to bring seasoning, cooking oils but pots and pans are good), and eating in the nice dining room. Beds are comfy, good black out curtains keep street noise and outside light down. Bathrooms are clean and showers with good water pressure. The host was quick to respond, and easy to work with which was greatly appreciated. I really can't stress how nice the location is. 15 min uber to DC museums, 25min Uber to zoo. The Metro is nearby but looked like it'd take an hour to get to the zoo, so we chose Uber.All of that, and a great price. We'd definitely look to come back again (hopefully next time with no government closure.)

This is a wonderful house in a well kept, safe, and convenient part of historic Old Town Alexandria. The house is very old, but it has been completely modernized. 2 bedroooms, 3 bathrooms, modern kitchen, high efficiency washer and dryer. The bedrooms and showers are upstairs with a fairly steep flight of stairs to climb. Guests with mobility issues might find the stairs to be challenging. Getting to DC (which was the reason for our visit) was easy and fast. We walked 1.5 blocks to catch a free bus. The bus took us for a short ride to the DC metro station. Over all this was a great place to stay for business or pleasure. I will book this house again when I go back to Alexandria for a DC vacation.
