The renovation of this apartment in a historic building is extremely well done. Be aware that there are several flights of stairs to climb to gain access to the apartment. Our only issue was that the weather at Christmas was unusually cold and the apartment was chilly, except upstairs in the master bedroom. We only stayed one night out of our booking because of a medical emergency so I can’t give a more complete review than these impressions.

We stayed here for a wedding in the area and loved every minute of it. Our 7 month old baby had plenty of space to move around. The apartment is decorated so cute and we loved the history behind it. Would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay here while visiting our son stationed at Ft Lee. It was convenient to there. The house was well stocked and comfortable. The views were impressive. The natural light was fun. It’s a hike up the stairs but good for the heart. The loud music at night was only a small issue as I had my ear plugs and white noise. We found plenty of shops and restaurants just out our door.
