Wonderful place, great hosts, perfect location near downtown and woodsy trails.

Very nice location. It was very close to everything we needed. 10 min walk to the metro. It was the perfect location for my family to stay as we toured Washington DC. Owner was great on communication and very helpful in answering all of our questions about the area. Thank you, highly recommend to anyone looking to stay near the DC area.

Everything was just as described! Everything you would possible need was already there and waiting. There were some reviews about the noise from upstairs but we never noticed anything except for a very minor footstep here or there. We experience more noise in a hotel room than what they produce from upstairs! Any communication with the owner was quick and helpful. We would definitely recommend staying here to anyone!

My wife and I stayed at the property and found it to be just as is described in the description. The apartment was spacious, well appointed, and very clean. The owner was very quick to respond to any questions I had and was extremely accommodating. As is clearly described in the listing the family lives above and we heard them walking around occasionally, but by no means did it detract from the experience. The neighborhood was quaint and quiet and many shops and restaurants were within walking distance. I would stay here again if future travels brought me to the Silver Spring area.

Clean. 2 dining areas. 2 sleeping areas. Every amenity including an umbrella by the door.

Stayed at this location for a month with a co-worker. We were pleased with the location and the apartment has everything you need for a stay (washer/dryer, kitchen appliances). Unfortunately, however, the house is quite old and you can hear absolutely EVERYTHING from the family upstairs (stomping kids, running up and down stairs, dogs, voices, guests). I spoke to the owner several times as this was very disturbing to our sleep and ability to study and relax at the apartment in the evenings. She unfortunately couldn’t do much about it due to the nature of the older home and the flooring. She did offer to let myself and my co-worker find alternate accommodations and only charge us for the time we had stayed thus far, but at that point it was the last week of our trip and there was nothing else suitable available. I booked this apartment well in advance of our trip and hadn’t read several of the more recent reviews about the noise from upstairs - I wish I had as we would have definitely preferred to stay elsewhere (again simply due to the noise, not the location of the apartment or interactions with the owner). I don’t like to leave an overall negative review and maybe this would work for some people for a short term stay but if you need peace and quiet during the evening hours and while you sleep this is not conducive to that.

My husband and I were really impressed with this basement apartment. It was very quiet, clean and well furnished. The outside garden was beautiful, and the neighborhood was excellent. We were able to walk to stores in the downtown area. We would highly recommend this property!

I loved staying in the apartment! It was exactly as described, and Zenith couldn’t have been nicer. Also, I have stayed in a lot of VRBO’s and this was HANDS DOWN the cleanest one I’ve ever had the pleasure of staying in (in the world). The only downside was the noise from upstairs. It is pretty clear, but didn’t bother me enough to effect my scoring of the stay. Thank you so much for your hospitality!
