We had 4 adults and 4 kids and had plenty of room. Everything was clean and well maintained. Easy check in, close to the metro and highway so it was a great location
5.0
Our family enjoyed staying in this home. It had everything we needed. Metro was a few blocks from the house as was a grocery store and a few places to dine. A couple minor touchups and repairs would make this place perfect (front yard could use a little TLC; door knob on bedroom door pulled out but was still usable). Overall was a great place and would stay again.
5.0
We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again! Balston neighborhood was very walkable from this property. Convenient short walk to the metro, shipping, and restaurants.
5.0
We stayed here with our family & it was a great space to hang out. The layout was perfect for our 2 families (ours with 2 adults & a teen, and my brother’s with 2 adults & 2 teens). We used a nearby garage to park each day & take the metro to various areas for sight-seeing. No complaints at all- comfortable beds, space for all of us, plenty of sitting room in the main space & everything we needed in the kitchen. Would recommend it to others for sure!

Great experience. Would rent here again.

We enjoyed our stay at Kelly's house. The property was clean, comfortable and convenient to DC -- about 10 minutes via 66, which had an on-ramp literally 100 yards from the front door. Property abuts a main street (Glebe Road) so there can be traffic noise, but that was a minor issue. Would recommend it to other families visiting DC area.
5.0
Very cute little house. Very roomy for what we needed. Less than a mile to public transportation and restaurants.
5.0
We really enjoyed our stay at Glebe! The house was spacious enough for 5 adults, was clean and was at a great location. Kelly really made sure the home was stocked with everything you could need. Check in and out was simple and easy. Overall a great stay with a great host!
5.0
Cute little house, about 10 minute drive from the National Mall. Owner was easy to work with and very responsive.
5.0
We are a family of 9 with 6 adults and 3 children. This place was perfect for our family. We loved the layout of 2 rooms sharing a bathroom downstairs, a private study with a futon for our teen, and the upstairs loft for the young family. Kelly went above and beyond when one of our group accidentally damaged a piece of furniture. She was very understanding and made arrangements to have it replaced. This made our stay worry free. Would definitely stay again!
5.0
Great location. Close to city. Recommend restaurants.
Lots of towels. Coffee to start. Good values for price
5.0
I stayed at this location with 8 other girls for a "Dirty 30+ Bachlorette" Weekend. We ate and slept at the house, which was perfectly set up for us! The kitchen had all the utensils and cookware we needed for our group, as well as serving ware. The bedrooms and living space accommodated our group without it feeling cramped or too cozy.
The location was perfect-- we caught the metro, ran errands, got food-- for anything we wanted to do. Everything was a short walk or drive away!
The host was especially helpful when one of the lights went out during the weekend. She dropped a bulb by in less than an hour! She was also super responsive to our messages.
AND THE PARKING! We had 5 vehicles parked in the driveway and we probably could've fit at least one more! Outstanding. (:
5.0
Great house, comfortable furniture. Rented for three weeks while moving into a nearby home; it was a great refuge, well represented by photos, the one very small issue immediately addressed by owner. Really great location- quiet but near transit and restaurants.
4.0
The property was in a great location with plenty of restaurants near by. There was plenty of space for 6 adults to sleep. Kitchen is very small and not very well equipped. There is no grill for cooking outside. There is a very large dead tree right next to the driveway, was very scary during a thunderstorm. Overall a great spot but could use some updates.

The location is perfect for this property when trying to travel on the subway. This is an older property that offers everything that one would need. We were a family of five and we’re well accommodated. Although electrical outlets were limited, one just needs to plan ahead. Hot water never ran out! Gas stove was a plus.🌞👍

This property was in a great spot for access to the Metro, about a 10 minute walk in a safe area. Even coming home at night it felt safe. Some of the bedrooms are loud at night as it is on a main road, but that is to be expected for the walk ability to the Metro. The house was very clean and beds were extremely comfortable. The downstairs bathroom did have some peeling paint but bathroom was clean and plenty of towels and amenities were available. I would stay here again.

Nice location…can walk to almost anywhere you need. Beds are very comfortable and house is very clean. Bath towels are cushy. Furniture is comfortable. Keurig available with coffee and half and half. Would stay again if back in the area. Also, Kelly answered questions promptly during our stay which was helpful.

Our family really enjoyed this home! My parents have mobility issues, so the steps up to the door were a bit tricky, but they were able to stay in one of the downstairs bedrooms. The upstairs area was really nice for my husband and I, but it is important for guests to know the stairs are very steep. My teen daughters slept on the twin beds downstairs. We only had 6 guests, but there were plenty of other sleeping arrangements if we had more guests. Having the layout of the house available online ahead of time was helpful. The host responded quickly to any communications, so I appreciated that. The beds, bedding and living room furniture were very comfortable. There are little folding "tv tables" in the living room, so don't worry about feeding large numbers of people at the kitchen table. The road traffic was a bit noisy, but the neighborhood felt very safe. I would rather listen to road traffic than the noise of hotel guests any time! It is so much better than staying in a stuffy hotel, and allowed us a comfortable place to sit and visit with family. We enjoyed that the home is updated with all the modern comforts, but still retains the charm and personality of an older home.
5.0
The house was neat and clean. The location, in particular, was great! Close to main arteries so trips into DC by personal car or Uber were pretty easy and not really expensive, resp. We would stay here again.

Home was clean, beds were comfortable and host was very responsive to the few questions we had during our stay.
