Great find

My husband and I spent a week recently at your vacation rental and could not have been more pleased. Ruby and Cooper, our 2 precious cats also fit right in. Ruby's favourite perch was on the window sill to the left of the fireplace....she spent nearly the entire week "guarding" our home away from home. Everything was so convenient for travelling about ....proximity to the Metro and great neighbourhood strolls. We really appreciated the supply of staple supplies to get us started before going to Whole Foods the day after we arrived.
And Juli offered such great hospitality.....how often do you receive a thank you letter with a return deposit? We will certainly be looking to stay again on returning to DC and will recommend your beautiful, art-filled home to our fellow travellers. Thanks again, Juli, for a wonderful week!

We stayed a wonderful week in this warm and cozy home away from home..So,conveint to Metro and Amtrak..We toured D.C.,Mount Vernon,and Philidelphia. Alexandria is delightful and easy to get around. We spent a wonderful evening enjoying a dinner and dance ,cruising the Potomac River. The view of D.C. lit at night is a great memory..The home has everything you'd need..And owner could not have been more accomodating when we arrived early AM..this is a can't miss accomodation.

This is a fine place to stay for two, the location can't be beat. The house stays warm, it's clean and has everything you would need for a week or two getaway. If we come back to DC, I would like to stay here again. It's a very nice neighborhood with a lot of young couples. The metro is only a few blocks away.

Our family really enjoyed staying in this bungalow. It was very convenient to DC and comfortable. The neighborhood is very pretty and quiet.

Had a wonderful stay here in August 2009. This house is located in a picturesque and quiet, and safe neighborhood in Alexandria and has easy access to the Braddock Road Metro station. The house itself is very well taken care of and has a beautiful back yard perfect for morning coffee. The kitchen is well-stocked with dishes and utensils for dining in, and in although the main air conditioning unit is more than adequate, there is an additional air conditioner in the master bedroom for warm weather.

It is also incredibly convenient. The nearby Metro station provides easy access to the entire D.C. area, and is just a few miles from Reagan National airport (The airport is only one metro stop down the line from the house - mere minutes). Old Town Alexandria is within walking distance and outshines much of D.C. in terms of charm, activity and history.

Everything about this house feels comfortable and homey. It is clean, convenient, and in an excellent location. We didn't have a car and never felt like we needed one. The owner (Juli) is friendly, charming, and easy to work with. She gave us some great pointers on restaurants and activities during our stay. We will certainly come back.

My husband and I came back to visit my hometown of DC after 11 years away. This house is the perfect place to stay! It's a beautiful cozy little bungalow in a really nice friendly neighborhood. The house has everything you could need on vacation. We invited old friends over for a visit. They all loved it too!

The backyard is great. Our dog had a blast sniffing around and we were able to relax knowing the yard is fenced in. We took her for long walks around the neighborhood too. There are cute houses all around.

The house is convenient to everything. We could get to Old Town in just a few blocks, we rode the Metro to DC in just a few minutes, and we were close to all the major roads so we could drive to see our old friends all over the DC area. It is really easy to get around from this spot.

We loved it and we'll certainly visit again!

Our annual "leave the husbands home" trip was a great success with much thanks going to our "home away." We had a delightful garden area for morning coffee and evening cocktails and a cozy living room for night-time chats. Close to the main street in Alexandria with shops, restaurants and sites (if you like art, be sure to visit the Torpedo Factory), we were also within easy walking distance to the metro and transportation in and around Washington, D.C.

It was perfect!

We rented this place for 5 nights based on the reviews we read. Instead, we found grimy area rugs, upholstery and windows--not a great value and a very high price. No hotel would survive with that kind of maintenance.
