Wonderful home. You won't have any problems with staying here for a few nights. Location is a short drive to DC and to other attractions. The only advice I would suggest to the owners is the TV situation. The main living room TV was working fine, but one room upstairs had no TV, one had no media device at all, and the basement TV had no controller. Electronic fireplace controller batteries were dead and there was a laser pointer on the living room table as well. Also, the pots and pans could use an upgrade. Other than that, 4 out of 5 for me.

The house was fine and had some great upgrades but I have to agree with the previous review about the TV ‘sOnly the living room and one smaller bedroom had working TV’s .One of them in the middle bedroom had nothing but snow. The host advised me that they don’t provide streaming services. However nothing at all was on the screen when powered on ….and the basement had no working remotes. The fireplace still wasn’t working.So these problems have not been corrected since the last reviewer was there.Overall, the house was large enough for our family to enjoy some time together and were comfortable
Excellent

We just got back from DC, and had a great stay at this house! It was very convenient to everthing DC has to offer. If you are a runner, walker or cyclist, you will love this location. It is two blocks away from a paved path down by the river. You can watch the boats and college rowing teams while you run. Anacostia has changed a lot since I lived in DC many years ago, and it is great to see such a vibrant neighborhood. W

First of all, the owners/representatives were awesome and quick to answer my numerous questions which made this stay easy and painless!!I want to make sure to say how beautifully decorated, homey and clean this place was from the moment we walked in the door. That being said, my brother & SIL arrived in the evening and were concerned by the neighborhood being "rough". It was a Thursday evening, around 5pm and there was alot of loud, foot traffic in the middle of the road and lights & sirens...all the scary stuff when you are new to a neighborhood. But in the light of the morning, my husband and brother sat on the front porch and chatted with the neighbors. Beautiful, wonderful, friendly people!! The initial concerns were so wrong!! During the time we were there, we enjoyed not just the interior but the neighborhood and neighbors at the property. The rooms were all exactly as shown. The beds were SO COMFORTABLE and the pillows were amazing!! (We all want those mattresses and pillows! Lol) The bathrooms were all well stocked, even with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The kitchen was also well stocked. There are air conditioner units in each room which was wonderful because we slept wonderfully. The air conditioner in the living area worked great and kept us cool. I can't say enough about how wonderful this place was to stay and we'd love to stay again in the future!! If you are interested then make sure to ask all the questions because the owners will respond!
Okay

Pros: - off-street parking for 2 vehicles - 3 1/2 bathrooms - 3 bedrooms upstairs - basement apartment with additional sleeping area - laundry on-site - steps away from bus stop - easy to get to Metro station - Metro system in DC is excellent!Cons: - burnt out lightbulbs - some kitchen pans needed to be replaced - some kitchen pans were not clean - water and dead bugs in tea kettle - no bathroom hand towels or anywhere to hang one - door knob issues with a bedroom and bathroom - some interior spaces were quite tight, i.e. 1/2 bath on main floor and upstairs bedroom with en suite bathroom
