Plenty of toys and a bunk bed—great for kids. Beautiful kitchen and spacious living room with a convenient half bath. Two bedrooms and one full bathroom. Small table and chairs right outside the front door, perfect for morning coffee! Easy pinpad entry for hassle-free access. Fridge with ice/water dispenser. Free coffee, tea, and disposable cups for iced drinks. Free Wi-Fi included. Whole Foods just 3 minutes away and close to local cafes. Near the White House, Capitol Hill, Maryland, and Virginia (less than 20 minutes away). Soo convenient and comfortable!

Roach infested!!! We personally had to kill 5 huge roaches with wings. This is unacceptable. We could not use one of the bedrooms during the last night of our two night stay. My family was terrified and my 5 year old son had nightmares over this.

두가정이 아이들과 동부여행을 가느라고 묵었는데 너무 좋았어요.
청결했고 불편한거 없이 다 구비 되어서 코비드 이후 묵었던 곳중 최고였어요
홀푸드도 도보에 있었고 아이들과 묵기에 안전하고 편안한 숙소였어요
강력 추천합니다.

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The location couldn’t be better — it’s incredibly convenient for visiting all the major D.C. landmarks like the White House, Capitol Hill, and the museums. Everything was just a short walk or quick ride away.
The unit itself was clean, cozy, and the bed was super comfortable after long days of sightseeing. What really made it special, though, was the thoughtful setup for families. There was a wonderful collection of toys that kept our kids entertained for hours! It gave us a chance to take a break and recharge while the kids played safely and happily inside.
Truly, this place is like a gem — we felt lucky to have found it. Highly recommend, especially for families traveling with young children

We stayed as two families, three adults and 4 kids (school aged) and it was perfect for us. Kitchen had enough to have quick meals, enough toys and games to keep kids entertained, and enough common space to relax between sight-seeing. Parking wasn’t an issue if you followed the hosts instructions. Bathrooms were clean. We had a great stay and would stay again.

The pictures of the property were spot on. I found the neighbourhood fine and walked through it at all times of day and night. You do hear the sirens as the hospital is the next block over but that’s not. ideal breaker. No one mentions there are two entry and exits from the subwayto this property. You can use U street or African American Civial war monument.
Ben’s Chilli is round the corner a must visit as well as Oohhhs and Aahhh’s and also check out the Greek spot on the corner of 11th Street.
Loads of Lime scooters and bikes around.
Property wawell stocked although didn’t cook at Property the kitchen was more than adequately stocked. it had everything needed and more.
Check in text arrived with detailed check in and recommendation
Small issue on Sunday bathroom sink plug wouldn’t hold any water so reported a d it was acknowledged but no further details about a fix or resolution. Had to send reminder for action which they sent someone round. Warning Air con unit can be noisy

We had a great time staying here. Very family friendly with lots of books, toys and games for kids (older and younger!) Love this area – close to the metro and easy to walk to playgrounds, coffee shops, restaurants, etc. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor space, it was small but enough to let the kids run a little. Would stay here again!

This establishment is an excellent choice, conveniently located near all the attractions in Washington, D.C. The provided information prior to our arrival was highly beneficial. We encountered no difficulties, but the host was always readily available to assist us if needed. While parking can be somewhat challenging, we did not experience any problems.

Phenomenal place right in the city. We found that Uber was the easiest transportation downtown. Super convenient that the Whole Foods was very close within walking distance. Thankfully parking was not difficult like I expected it would be. We slept great. All the amenities met our expectations and the owners were very quick to respond to any questions.

Families, look no further– this place is amazing! Everything you could need for traveling with kids. We traveled with 3 kids age 3, 2 and 1 and they had all the toys to keep them interested and busy during the rainy days of our stay. The location was beautiful, convenient and felt extremely safe. I would absolutely stay here again.

Fantastic place! I highly recommend it. Very spacious, comfortable and livable. The host is extremely responsive and helpful. Loved the location…close enough to the city for convenience but just far enough away to avoid congestion and traffic. Adorable neighborhood. Very convenient to Metro and to order rideshare. Having 2 groceries very close by was wonderful. Super quiet and peaceful. Never heard the neighbors upstairs.

Our family of four, myself, wife, and 2 teens, loved this place. The location was about 2 minutes from the metro and U streets vast selection of restaurants and stores. Inside we had everything you could think of and the neighborhood was quaint and quiet. The cleanliness of the home was impeccable, and the responsiveness of the host was amazing. We would definitely stay here again when visiting DC.

We had to leave our home because of Hurricane Helene so we decided to visit a friend in DC! Boy was I glad we chose this place. It was so cute and clean. A short walk from the U Street Metro and in a very cute neighborhood. They had toiletries available (shampoo, lotion, etc.) and the beds were very comfortable. The bunk bed and trundle was perfect for our 3 kids. Two things to note—parking is with a permit and involves some preplanning and check in/out is not very flexible, so just plan for those things. Great stay and I would come back again!

I had an amazing stay at this Airbnb! The apartment was incredibly spacious, perfect for remote work with plenty of space to spread out. It’s also located in a fantastic area with tons of restaurants and an active nightlife, yet the neighborhood remained calm and peaceful for restful evenings.
The apartment itself was very nice and comfortable, with modern, stylish decor that made it feel like home right away. The host was extremely thoughtful, providing everything we needed to get started, including coffee and laundry detergent. On top of that, they were super communicative, regularly checking in to make sure we were doing well, which made us feel really cared for.
Overall, I highly recommend this Airbnb for anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located, and stylish space with a host that goes above and beyond. 🙂

This was a great apartment for a Washington DC family vacation — I would highly recommend it. The place is close to a metro station, or a short Uber / Lyft ride from most sightseeing in the DC area, so you won’t need a car. While we didn’t spend too much time in the neighborhood itself, it seemed pretty safe, and walkable even at night. The apartment was conveniently located only a few minutes walk from a Whole Foods store.
The place was great for our family — kitchen was very well equipped, there were some games for the little ones, and the bed configuration was ideal for our 3 kids to share a room (bunk bed + trundle). The place is also tastefully remodeled and designed. The communication with a host was excellent.

Our family of four had a great stay at this excellent apartment. It’s an ideal location, easily walkable to transportation, shopping, restaurants and more. And the space itself is perfect: the kids loved the bunk beds and toys, and we liked having enough space to prepare meals, work remotely, and hang out as needed. We’d definitely come back.

I stayed here with my 3 children (kid/teens) for our summer vacation to D.C.. We were very comfortable and slept well. They provided shampoo/conditioner/body wash/hand soap/lotion. We used the metro daily to tour D.C., and had a short walk from the metro (Cardozo/U street) to the rental. There is a Whole Foods about 3 blocks away and Walmart will deliver. My teenage son ran daily around the area and felt safe. Communication with Home Sweet City was great. Would recommend!

6/5 stars! This Airbnb blew it out of the water. It was spotlessly clean, had toys/games/books/coloring books for our kids. The amenities made us feel right at home. The kitchen was stocked if you’re planning to cook. Hosts were friendly, quick to respond, and had great local recommendations. We will 100% be staying here again next time we’re in DC.

We had a great 5-night stay as a family of four. The neighborhood was fantastic – centrally located near plenty of restaurants and Whole Foods for groceries and a straight shot down to the mall for our many museum visits. The kids loved the bunk bed and playing with some toys/games in the apartment. We only had one minor hiccup, which was the battery on the keypad died while we were out. However the management team responded right away and we were back inside 30-minutes later.

My friends and I truly enjoyed our time in DC! It was comfortable, spacious and an all around fun place to stay. We loved how walkable it was but also how close we were to so many main attractions and great restaurants, literally we didn’t take an Uber that was longer than 15 minutes! If you’re thinking of staying here just do it!!
11/20/2023
2023.11.21
Great rental for visiting DC area. Easily walkable to metro and local restaurants & coffee shops. The space is probably more ideal for a couple with kids as there was one bedroom with a queen and another with bunk beds. I was here with a small group of friends so ok with sharing rooms but didn’t share beds – slightly less convenient but still worked out ok. Really nice space for hanging out in the evenings watching tv, or having a casual breakfast together over the kitchen island.
11/12/2023

Better than the photos and one of the better AirBnBs in terms of equipment for cooking, making coffee and tea and taking care of everything you need for a stay. Host was communicative and proactive and the place was nicer and more warm than I expected. Tons of restaurants in the area, easy public transportation. We loved our stay so much we wanted to extend but it wasn’t available for an extra night. Hopefully we will be back.

2023.09.12
The overall experience was wonderful! The host was very proactive to make sure the stay is as comfortable as possible. Home Sweet City is a great stay with the family, as it has space, toys for the kids and a small front yard, which makes it save to go out with them. It is also located a few minutes from the metro station so you can easily go sightseeing and has several grocery stores just around the corner.

This was the cutest Airbnb! I loved how everything was thought of. A document was sent prior to staying and it included everything! We didn’t get to the apartment til after midnight and Michelle answered our questions about parking.
The kids section and decorations were wonderful. Kept the kids entertained and they loved the bunk beds.
Michelle was very friendly and helpful. My son broke one of the little figurines our first morning there and Michelle was very gracious about it. I had already ordered the replacement prior to reaching out and letting her know, but she was she still so kind about it. We also left a few of my sons clothes behind and they are being mailed back to us. Michelle and her team were very easy to communicate with.
Location was absolutely perfect. Walking distance to great restaurants and shops. We walked to Tatte bakery both mornings. 10-20 min drive to the White House, capitol, and museums.
We absolutely loved the privacy here.

We had such a wonderful time at the condo! It was such a nice size. We were seven people, and the space was effortless for us. There was ample room for everyone and lots of nooks where people could find their own space. The unit was spotless, fresh, clean, comfortable, and bright. The beds were SO COMFORTABLE! (except the sofa bed… but that’s not totally surprising). In addition, the host was so responsive, helpful, and friendly, which was so appreciated. We would absolutely stay here again and thank Home Sweet City for a wonderful stay.

My family of 6 stayed here for a weekend trip to DC and had a wonderful stay. With 3 young kids, it was so cool to see that these hosts had thought of all the things kids and parents might need. Not only were there toys to keep our kiddos busy, but there were also plastic kids plates too! Lots of things were walkable from this place, and it was surprisingly quiet inside even in the evening. We visited the zoo and the natural history museum and both were very close. Hosts were very friendly and responsive to all our needs, and there was never a moment where we said “we wish this place had X.” We would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay at home sweet city. Host was very responsive with any questions we had. Location was fantastic. We had three small kids and walked to metro and around with no problem.

The Home Sweet City team was responsive to any questions we had. Parking was a bit confusing – it was hard to understand what our pass meant in relation to the posted signs (zone 1, zone 2, resident, etc.) but with some research online we figured it out.
We were missing a baking dish in the kitchen to make dinner, and they dropped a dish off while we were out for the day. Thank you!
The apartment had plenty of space for our family of 6, and the dining table was great for meals or to play games. We’d definitely stay again, if we return to DC.

The home was very warm and welcoming! The place was perfect for our family of 4! Just enough space to feel comfortable. It was a spontaneous trip for the family to see the museums! Please make sure you get parking pass before the day of the trip. Just as host notes in the directions. The half bath was a plus! Everything you need plus more was readily available! We’ll definitely book again!

Roach infested!!! We personally had to kill 5 huge roaches with wings. This is unacceptable. We could not use one of the bedrooms during the last night of our two night stay. My family was terrified and my 5 year old son had nightmares over this.

두가정이 아이들과 동부여행을 가느라고 묵었는데 너무 좋았어요.
청결했고 불편한거 없이 다 구비 되어서 코비드 이후 묵었던 곳중 최고였어요
홀푸드도 도보에 있었고 아이들과 묵기에 안전하고 편안한 숙소였어요
강력 추천합니다.

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The location couldn’t be better — it’s incredibly convenient for visiting all the major D.C. landmarks like the White House, Capitol Hill, and the museums. Everything was just a short walk or quick ride away.
The unit itself was clean, cozy, and the bed was super comfortable after long days of sightseeing. What really made it special, though, was the thoughtful setup for families. There was a wonderful collection of toys that kept our kids entertained for hours! It gave us a chance to take a break and recharge while the kids played safely and happily inside.
Truly, this place is like a gem — we felt lucky to have found it. Highly recommend, especially for families traveling with young children

We stayed as two families, three adults and 4 kids (school aged) and it was perfect for us. Kitchen had enough to have quick meals, enough toys and games to keep kids entertained, and enough common space to relax between sight-seeing. Parking wasn’t an issue if you followed the hosts instructions. Bathrooms were clean. We had a great stay and would stay again.

The pictures of the property were spot on. I found the neighbourhood fine and walked through it at all times of day and night. You do hear the sirens as the hospital is the next block over but that's not. ideal breaker. No one mentions there are two entry and exits from the subwayto this property. You can use U street or African American Civial war monument.
Ben's Chilli is round the corner a must visit as well as Oohhhs and Aahhh's and also check out the Greek spot on the corner of 11th Street.
Loads of Lime scooters and bikes around.
Property wawell stocked although didn't cook at Property the kitchen was more than adequately stocked. it had everything needed and more.
Check in text arrived with detailed check in and recommendation
Small issue on Sunday bathroom sink plug wouldn't hold any water so reported a d it was acknowledged but no further details about a fix or resolution. Had to send reminder for action which they sent someone round. Warning Air con unit can be noisy

We had a great time staying here. Very family friendly with lots of books, toys and games for kids (older and younger!) Love this area - close to the metro and easy to walk to playgrounds, coffee shops, restaurants, etc. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor space, it was small but enough to let the kids run a little. Would stay here again!

This establishment is an excellent choice, conveniently located near all the attractions in Washington, D.C. The provided information prior to our arrival was highly beneficial. We encountered no difficulties, but the host was always readily available to assist us if needed. While parking can be somewhat challenging, we did not experience any problems.

Phenomenal place right in the city. We found that Uber was the easiest transportation downtown. Super convenient that the Whole Foods was very close within walking distance. Thankfully parking was not difficult like I expected it would be. We slept great. All the amenities met our expectations and the owners were very quick to respond to any questions.

Families, look no further-- this place is amazing! Everything you could need for traveling with kids. We traveled with 3 kids age 3, 2 and 1 and they had all the toys to keep them interested and busy during the rainy days of our stay. The location was beautiful, convenient and felt extremely safe. I would absolutely stay here again.

Fantastic place! I highly recommend it. Very spacious, comfortable and livable. The host is extremely responsive and helpful. Loved the location...close enough to the city for convenience but just far enough away to avoid congestion and traffic. Adorable neighborhood. Very convenient to Metro and to order rideshare. Having 2 groceries very close by was wonderful. Super quiet and peaceful. Never heard the neighbors upstairs.

Our family of four, myself, wife, and 2 teens, loved this place. The location was about 2 minutes from the metro and U streets vast selection of restaurants and stores. Inside we had everything you could think of and the neighborhood was quaint and quiet. The cleanliness of the home was impeccable, and the responsiveness of the host was amazing. We would definitely stay here again when visiting DC.

We had to leave our home because of Hurricane Helene so we decided to visit a friend in DC! Boy was I glad we chose this place. It was so cute and clean. A short walk from the U Street Metro and in a very cute neighborhood. They had toiletries available (shampoo, lotion, etc.) and the beds were very comfortable. The bunk bed and trundle was perfect for our 3 kids. Two things to note—parking is with a permit and involves some preplanning and check in/out is not very flexible, so just plan for those things. Great stay and I would come back again!

I had an amazing stay at this Airbnb! The apartment was incredibly spacious, perfect for remote work with plenty of space to spread out. It’s also located in a fantastic area with tons of restaurants and an active nightlife, yet the neighborhood remained calm and peaceful for restful evenings.
The apartment itself was very nice and comfortable, with modern, stylish decor that made it feel like home right away. The host was extremely thoughtful, providing everything we needed to get started, including coffee and laundry detergent. On top of that, they were super communicative, regularly checking in to make sure we were doing well, which made us feel really cared for.
Overall, I highly recommend this Airbnb for anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located, and stylish space with a host that goes above and beyond. 🙂

This was a great apartment for a Washington DC family vacation -- I would highly recommend it. The place is close to a metro station, or a short Uber / Lyft ride from most sightseeing in the DC area, so you won't need a car. While we didn't spend too much time in the neighborhood itself, it seemed pretty safe, and walkable even at night. The apartment was conveniently located only a few minutes walk from a Whole Foods store.
The place was great for our family -- kitchen was very well equipped, there were some games for the little ones, and the bed configuration was ideal for our 3 kids to share a room (bunk bed + trundle). The place is also tastefully remodeled and designed. The communication with a host was excellent.

Our family of four had a great stay at this excellent apartment. It’s an ideal location, easily walkable to transportation, shopping, restaurants and more. And the space itself is perfect: the kids loved the bunk beds and toys, and we liked having enough space to prepare meals, work remotely, and hang out as needed. We’d definitely come back.

I stayed here with my 3 children (kid/teens) for our summer vacation to D.C.. We were very comfortable and slept well. They provided shampoo/conditioner/body wash/hand soap/lotion. We used the metro daily to tour D.C., and had a short walk from the metro (Cardozo/U street) to the rental. There is a Whole Foods about 3 blocks away and Walmart will deliver. My teenage son ran daily around the area and felt safe. Communication with Home Sweet City was great. Would recommend!

We had a great 5-night stay as a family of four. The neighborhood was fantastic - centrally located near plenty of restaurants and Whole Foods for groceries and a straight shot down to the mall for our many museum visits. The kids loved the bunk bed and playing with some toys/games in the apartment. We only had one minor hiccup, which was the battery on the keypad died while we were out. However the management team responded right away and we were back inside 30-minutes later.

My friends and I truly enjoyed our time in DC! It was comfortable, spacious and an all around fun place to stay. We loved how walkable it was but also how close we were to so many main attractions and great restaurants, literally we didn’t take an Uber that was longer than 15 minutes! If you’re thinking of staying here just do it!!
11/20/2023
2023.11.20
Great rental for visiting DC area. Easily walkable to metro and local restaurants & coffee shops. The space is probably more ideal for a couple with kids as there was one bedroom with a queen and another with bunk beds. I was here with a small group of friends so ok with sharing rooms but didn't share beds - slightly less convenient but still worked out ok. Really nice space for hanging out in the evenings watching tv, or having a casual breakfast together over the kitchen island.

Better than the photos and one of the better AirBnBs in terms of equipment for cooking, making coffee and tea and taking care of everything you need for a stay. Host was communicative and proactive and the place was nicer and more warm than I expected. Tons of restaurants in the area, easy public transportation. We loved our stay so much we wanted to extend but it wasn't available for an extra night. Hopefully we will be back.
9/11/2023
2023.09.11
The overall experience was wonderful! The host was very proactive to make sure the stay is as comfortable as possible. Home Sweet City is a great stay with the family, as it has space, toys for the kids and a small front yard, which makes it save to go out with them. It is also located a few minutes from the metro station so you can easily go sightseeing and has several grocery stores just around the corner.

This was the cutest Airbnb! I loved how everything was thought of. A document was sent prior to staying and it included everything! We didn’t get to the apartment til after midnight and Michelle answered our questions about parking.
The kids section and decorations were wonderful. Kept the kids entertained and they loved the bunk beds.
Michelle was very friendly and helpful. My son broke one of the little figurines our first morning there and Michelle was very gracious about it. I had already ordered the replacement prior to reaching out and letting her know, but she was she still so kind about it. We also left a few of my sons clothes behind and they are being mailed back to us. Michelle and her team were very easy to communicate with.
Location was absolutely perfect. Walking distance to great restaurants and shops. We walked to Tatte bakery both mornings. 10-20 min drive to the White House, capitol, and museums.
We absolutely loved the privacy here.

We had such a wonderful time at the condo! It was such a nice size. We were seven people, and the space was effortless for us. There was ample room for everyone and lots of nooks where people could find their own space. The unit was spotless, fresh, clean, comfortable, and bright. The beds were SO COMFORTABLE! (except the sofa bed... but that's not totally surprising). In addition, the host was so responsive, helpful, and friendly, which was so appreciated. We would absolutely stay here again and thank Home Sweet City for a wonderful stay.

My family of 6 stayed here for a weekend trip to DC and had a wonderful stay. With 3 young kids, it was so cool to see that these hosts had thought of all the things kids and parents might need. Not only were there toys to keep our kiddos busy, but there were also plastic kids plates too! Lots of things were walkable from this place, and it was surprisingly quiet inside even in the evening. We visited the zoo and the natural history museum and both were very close. Hosts were very friendly and responsive to all our needs, and there was never a moment where we said "we wish this place had X." We would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay at home sweet city. Host was very responsive with any questions we had. Location was fantastic. We had three small kids and walked to metro and around with no problem.

The Home Sweet City team was responsive to any questions we had. Parking was a bit confusing - it was hard to understand what our pass meant in relation to the posted signs (zone 1, zone 2, resident, etc.) but with some research online we figured it out.
We were missing a baking dish in the kitchen to make dinner, and they dropped a dish off while we were out for the day. Thank you!
The apartment had plenty of space for our family of 6, and the dining table was great for meals or to play games. We'd definitely stay again, if we return to DC.

This was an exceptional place to stay. The place was clean, beautiful and really spacious! Everything we wanted to do was within a 15-20 minute walk or car ride. The restaurants, shops and gyms were all near by!
