Nice Base for Exploring Kensington

We were pleased with our stay. The house is nicely laid out -- efficient and compact. The kitchen had everything we needed. There were nice touches throughout such as upscale towels. The location was perfect for exploring downtown Kensington. We wanted to flag 2 items. First, we could hear the downstairs neighbors speaking loudly starting around 6:30 am. Not a big problem, but a little annoying. Second, the stsirs to the upper level are narrow and a bit uneven.We

Washington DC Base Camp

We used this property as our base camp to visit the Washington DC and the surrounding area. It turned out great! The metro train station was a very short walk from the house. The neighborhood was clean, safe and quiet.

Great house

The house was clean and comfortable. The only thing I would add is dressers for the bedrooms that don’t have them and a space to hang up a coat and /or dress in the main floor bedroom. We enjoyed being there and being able to walk to the grocery store and restaurants.
