We enjoyed the house, clean, and decorated nicely. Would be nice if there was a half bath on the main floor because the stairs are tough with knee issues but overall doable. The location was perfect, safe, easy to get to main attractions and local restaurants. Had a great time.
Listen, the mgr was FANTASTIC! The place was comfortable for our family of 5. My biggest issue which wasn't something they could fix right then and there, was I didn't trust the integrity of the front door. There is an electric lock(which I love) but no secondary deadbolt. I don't want to worry about safety. It stresses me out, especially when my kids are with me. The neighborhood was quiet, people walked about at both day and night, no one was shady which helped ease my momma worries. I just couldn't round this up to a 5. If a single lock is good for you, then I think you'll enjoy your stay. Wish we'd had more time to explore Old Town by foot.
Thai is a cute house in the old town Alexandria area. We loved the ability to walk to restaurants, grocery stores and shops during our 2 week stay.The host was very communicative and helpful when we sent him questions. We would definitely stay there again!Michelle
The townhouse was great. I would recommend to place beds was very comfortable kitchens was well stock with cooking supplies. The grandroom was very comfortable also. Grocery store is very close by.
Our stay had some ups and downs. The owner reached out the day before asking me to cancel and pay directly, which felt unsettling, but Vrbo helped clear it up. The location was excellent, an easy walk to the Metro, and the free street parking was a huge plus. The beds were comfortable, but the home wasn’t as clean as I’d hoped. Overall, it worked for our trip, but I wouldn’t personally recommend it.
Bed, towels, kitchen equipment was excellent.I appreciated the 11 am check out…I could take my time.Also appreciated the coffee Koenig…i used all the caffeine pods and REALLY was glad to not to go out to get coffee.Neighborhood was nice.Quick note: Bathroom sink empties slowly…
We had a pretty good stay, but ultimately I'm not sure if was quite the best for our group. The only bathroom is upstairs, which was hard for my 72yo Mom. And although it had a travel crib, I think the location was not ready for a toddler. Great price, and great communication from Floyd when we did have issues.
I had a great stay at this location. The property was accurate as described and the photos were also accurate. The communication with the owner was very smooth and expedient. The location of the house is because it is in walking distance of many restaurants and shopping locations. We had no trouble finding Street parking. The AC unit is a little loud, but it works well. Additionally, the kitchen is very well appointed. There was a nice little backyard for my dogs, but walking around the neighborhood and to Founders Park was even better. The bathroom is on the second floor, but as long as everybody is fine with stairs, it is perfectly acceptable. No problems at all with the neighbors. I would definitely recommend this stay.
