I Found My DC-area Go-To!
Our most excellent host, Cris, was helpful from the moment we first reserved the property to the last. Great communication. Just like the pictures, even better in person. Instructions were easy to understand, everything we needed was provided, plenty of clean towels, bedding. Many outlets throughout including USBs to plug in electronics. The shower has strong flow, hot! cute, homey decor, small touches noticeable throughout. And the location was perfect! We used public transportation and the access to bus lines just a block away that quickly and frequently took us to the Metro rail just ten minutes away was easy and convenient, taking us all over metro-DC area. Supermarkets are near enough to walk to, but the buses made it easier when carrying the cases of bottled water (I'm sure Alexandria tap water is fine, but we're particular). The only thing we were missing was a toaster oven and a single hot plate burner to be able to prepare warm bites. But I'm sure there's a fire risk to those that our host doesn't want to take on, insurance liability and all. But a Keurig-style coffeemaker and hot water maker are provided. And Old Town Alexandria is wonderful, great dining options, historic and vibrant look and feel. Highly recommend. Thank you Cris, we'll be back next time through!
