Robert was a great host and this apartment was a cozy and quiet place to stay during my time in DC. Robert was extremely communicative when I reached out with questions and worked with care to make my stay comfortable. I would have welcomed a few more basic cooking essentials like some general spices as well as some leftover containers, but overall I had a comfortable and enjoyable time here. Would recommend!

We absolutely love this location and property. Well maintained and clean. Decorated true to it's name "Liberty House" and lots of books for reading about American History. Great access to rent bikes and ride both to Mount Vernon on the GW Parkway Trail, and also down to the National Mall area - definitely the best way to see around and not have to deal with traffic. The only thing that wasn't perfect, was the fireplace was not working, and wasn't able to be fixed while we were there for a week for our 35th Anniversary. That is the only less than perfect thing about our stay. Liberty House is very lovely!
