This location was perfect for our stay in Old Town Alexandria! The unit was exactly as advertised, and provided a comfortable retreat for us. Being on a second floor of three caused a few noise issues for us, but it subsided once the coffee/ice cream shop on the ground floor closed at 10p. With a bus stop outside the bedroom windows, there was no sleeping in, but who wants to do that considering everything there is to do in the area! The free bus/trolley to the King Street metro station opens the entire DC area up to you from this location. We would definitely stay here again!
Stayed for sonâs retirement ceremony from the Air Force and it was the perfect location to meet up with family and friends. Such a clean and welcoming place.
This was a beautiful flat and great location for adults. The host was very accommodating on check in/out times and the welcome goodies were a welcomed touch. We travelled with our two kids and dog and there was more than enough space. As the listing states, this is a very noisy apartment. The coffee shop downstairs was lovely but it doesnât close until 10pm on weekends and they blast music until then. There is also a bus stop right out front of the place and you hear the peeping and air compressors until the wee hours of the morning. The sound machines helped but you could still hear everything. Definitely recommend for adults but unfortunately not very suitable for a family with young kids. Our dog is very easy going but I could see if you had an anxious dog this would not be an ideal spot. There is constant knocking from the coffee shop tapping their espresso tools that mimics knocking on the door. Overall a good stay except for the over abundant noise.
We loved our stay at this home, the location was perfect and you can walk to so many good restaurants, bars or shopping. The only warning I will give is that it is very loud in this part of town. The coffee shop below starts making noise around 5:45am and there are street sweepers that go by early in the morning as well. The bars, restaurants and neighbors can all be heard through the walls. They do provide ear plugs that are much needed. Overall we loved our stay.
The apartment is in one of the best locations to explore Alexandria and DC! It is right above a gelato and coffee shop as well. The music and conversations from the gelato shop can be heard in the apartment but really we didnât mind! The employees are very friendly and they play great music :) Overall the apartment was very clean and was exactly like the photos. The trolley stop right out front was ideal for getting by around and it is close enough to walk to the shops and water. We will definitely be back! The host was friendly and easy to get ahold of when needed.
