We LOVED our stay in Alexandria! Caro’s place was so beautiful, clean and honestly, classy! I loved the beams and brick. We walked everywhere—for restaurants, shopping, Metro and groceries. The location was incredibly convenient and communication was quick. Since my group was 6 adults, the extra rollaway bed was a very comfortable touch! There was even a snack and waters to welcome us! Caro has thought of everything to make her guests comfortable!

Beyond pleased with our stay. Having a clean home can be hit or miss, but I was so pleased to walk into a truly clean home!! I could tell the linens were clean, towels as well. Home was spotless and smelled fresh. In home laundry was beyond appreciated! Traveling with four small children and my mom, we felt very safe with the location. Easy commute in and out of DC. Great restaurant options, including Jeni’s ice cream only a few blocks away. Highly recommend and if we return to visit DC again, I will re-book.

The best way to get around in Old Town is by foot, car or the free trolley that takes you around town and to the waterfront! King Street metro will take you into DC.
