DC Brick and Bloom
Loved staying at Synta's place for a quick getaway and would definitely come here again! She was super flexible from the beginning with allowing an early check in. Very easy to find and get inside the home with the keypads. Inside was spotless, the bathroom was beautiful, and the complimentary sleep masks and earplugs were so thoughtful! The metro was a quick 10 minute walk away. She also surprised us with bagels and milk for breakfast as a bonus! Such a great host, I recommend staying here!

Charming DC In-Law Suite, 1 BR, Kitchen, Parking
This is a gem you don’t want to miss if you are going to sightsee in DC! An easy 20 minute walk to the metro train station that will put you right by the museums, airports, restaurants, etc. Super clean and cozy place and a friendly host! She even had umbrellas for us, which came in handy for an unexpected rain storm. This was the perfect place for us to rest and recharge!

Cozy Guest Basement Suite w/ Private Entrance
Everything was great. Love the fact that it was only a 10min drive to the pool where my water polo tournament was held. I got lucky almost every night with parking, which was in front. One day I had to park around the corner but it wasn’t a far walk at all. They gave me places to eat and drink which worked out when I met an HS friend. Communication was great. Every other day or so they would check on me to see if I needed something, not in person but through messages. Which was great. Tv was loaded with apps, all you needed was you sign in info. Will totally rent from them again.

1 BR Apartment in Chevy Chase
The place was amazing, me and my girlfriend stayed for a week and loved every moment of it. The place was quiet and felt like our own apartment throughout the entire stay. The drive to dc was longer than expected (30-40 minutes) but that comes with city traffic of course. Over all an amazing stay and would 100% recommend if you are ok with paying for parking in dc.

Private basement suite
My parents came to Maryland for the first time to visit us and spend time with their granddaughter and they were so happy in Melissa’s place! They had everything they needed to have a comfortable and restful stay. You would barely know this is a basement unit with its spaciousness, kitchen area, living room and even sunlight through the bedroom window. Everything was immaculately clean, the bed was comfortable, and they’re within walking distance to a beautiful park. The only challenge they encountered was the step into the bathroom but we knew about that in advance thanks to Melissa’s proactive communication and transparency. Melissa was so responsive and it was a relief to me to know my parents were in a safe, clean and lovely place within walking distance of us. Now they’re excited to visit us again and stay in Melissa’s place!

Neighborhood Home near Capitol Hill Park Free, Walk to Metro
We really enjoyed our 5 day stay at Autumn's place. The neighborhood was beautiful and we enjoyed being able to walk to daily mass at the neighborhood Catholic Church, which was a real treat for us! Autumn was very responsive and accommodating to all of our questions and requests. We had groceries delivered to make breakfast a few mornings and that was really nice. Her place has all the amenities we needed for our stay. Finally, this was the easiest checkout experience we've ever had using AirBnB!

Guest suite in Hillandale
Evan’s’ place was great. It was close enough to the UMD Campus while being close to restaurants and such. We enjoyed the deck and the space.

Private 1 BR suite, Arlington VA. Easy DC access!
Wonderful stay! Grocery store and restaurants in walking distance. Safe neighborhood, great parking! Can’t beat the location for the price. I will definitely be back next time we are in town. Thank you!

Charming & Walkable Apartment w/ Patio - Sleeps 4
Edward was one of the most proactive, responsive AirBnB stays that we've ever had. Clear instructions via text beforehand and during check out, nicely detailed book with recommendations and details about the stay in a binder inside, pristine place with everything we needed in the kitchen, and even a fun dog that made our trip even more memorable. We lucked out finding this space available and would love to come again.

Charming Lower Level Studio--Historic Capitol Hill
Very nice place! Great location! Would highly recommend!!

DC Apartment w/ Private Patio, 1 BD + Den & 1 BA
This AirBnB was enjoyed by my parents while visiting from out of town for a high school graduation. They slept great here and were pleasantly surprised by the nice atmosphere of this basement unit. They particularly appreciated the king size bed, cleanliness and comfortable set up. They were concerned about parking, but easily found parking close by and did not have to worry about being ticketed or having a pass (which is needed in other areas in the neighborhood just a few blocks closer to the metro). Our only critique was that there wasn’t a railing at the start of the steps down to the unit. This made it a bit challenging for less steady guests, particularly after a long day, when returning at night.

Modern 1 bedroom basement unit near Metro
My stay here was great and comfortable. Yohanes was extremely accommodating. The upstairs unit shared hvac w. Basement unit and the guest didn’t like that I had it toasty so Yohanes brought by a space heater to keep both places comfortable. Parking was good too & he made sure we had a permit.

DC AU Park Studio, Parking, Private Entrance
Serena was a wonderful host. She went the extra mile & left lists of places to eat, emergency services, & the map for the metro. She also has extra comfort items for her guests (robes, slippers, cleansing items). It’s a very comfortable, clean space in a nice and quiet area. Would love to book again!

Shaw Urban Cottage @ Howard Metro
Excellent stay. Everything comfortable, clean and worked well. Michael was proactive, helpful and responsive.

The Den @ Glen - 1B1B w/ kitchen and private door
It was a lovely stay in a very nice unit. It was comfortable, easily accessible, and well-maintained. The fact that we didn't have to climb down a steep set of stairs really made a difference. The location was perfect for our granddaughter's musical performance for us. We will certainly request your home next time we are in DC.
Private suite rentals with a washing machine and dryer

Spacious 1BR/1BA Basement Apt. w/ Private Entry
We had a great stay! The space was clean, comfortable, and surprisingly roomy—which made it easy for me to navigate in my wheelchair (aside from the doorway, which was a large step in). I really appreciated the thoughtful touches like board games, books, and a cozy living room perfect for unwinding after a long day. We’re already looking forward to staying here again on our next trip back to Nova.

English basement conveniently on Capitol Hill
Graham was a fantastic host. Extremely responsive and expectations/instructions very clearly laid out. Place was extremely clean and location was incredible. Easy to get to Union Station, Stanton Park, The Capital, Eastern Market and H St Streetcar which can easily get you to places like the Queen Vic. Im shocked this place isn’t more expensive per night - bed was comfortable, AC worked perfectly, no smell, and didn’t feel like you were in an English basement. 10/10 highly recommend staying at this location, probably best place Ive stayed at.

1 Bedroom basement unit, private entry & parking
Very good location. Place was very clean and communication was the best.

Private Basement Unit - Free Parking, Pet Friendly
By far, the best AirBnB experience my partner and I have ever had. There is a reason for such incredible reviews! Phillip’s attention to details was impeccable, the entire place was incredibly clean and spotless. Every room was well thought out, with quality furniture and fixtures. Upon our arrival, Philip provided us with well thought out instructions to finding our way to his place, along with a welcome note and gift. We thoroughly enjoyed our brief but relaxing stay. It is very close to all the attractions in town, and a quick walkable Starbucks just down the street. I was dreading the DC traffic, but Phillips place was perfectly situated in an area we didn’t have to deal with much traffic at all! Overall, 10/10 for our stay. We will absolutely look to book here again whenever we come back in the future. I can’t recommend his place enough. You won’t find a better place that’s clean, comfortable, and close to the main parts of town. Thanks Phillip for the lovely host!

Enchanting Garden-Level Suite
Very well appointed kitchen. I really enjoyed being able to easily cook. the washer and dryer were so nice and better than mine at home! The hosts were very responsive and nice. We enjoyed the Studio Ghibli theme and even watched a movie.

Convenient, private basement apt near downtown DC
