Great place in heart of DC.

We loved our short stay at Dr. Koura's place. The apartment is centrally located, but still on a quiet and pretty street. It only took me steps to get a coffee in the morning and we found parking quite easy. Apartment was clean and we had everything we need. Should stay again!

Lovely stay

The apartment was great with plenty of room for the whole family and the location is within walking distance between a coffee shop and a pub with a quick 10 minute drive to the National mall. There is no TV in the apartment so bring your laptop and the only thing that could have made it better would be a small dining table with a few chairs.

Great for shorter trips for small groups!

It was a great place for my trip, close to a lot and the neighborhood is pretty nice! The rooms were extremely clean and the host was very great at communicating! I would definitely stay again, my only advice is it wouldn’t be a bad idea to bring another chair (there’s only one stool for the dining table) and if you are over 6ft the shower is a tight fit (no one’s fault just a heads up)

A Great Stay.

A wonderful place to stay if you are sightseeing in D.C. ! Not too far that travel is a time-suck, yet not so close to downtown that the price is (!!!) a very good 'goldilocks' location. If I make another trip to DC soon, I will definitely consider staying here again. Walk from this location to Capital One Arena is about 30 minutes. The host is very nice and responsive to messages.

A quick overnight stay

Two friends and I needed a place to stay for one night. We only needed something we could crash at so location and esthetic really was not a big need. However, we were so pleased with the location. The accommodations and cleanliness exceeded out of expectations. The street and building had so much charm. It was a treat to stay here and I would definitely come back!

Washington DC

Everything was good. Nice location, disappointed with the pricing apr sleeps 6 but we were charged extra for a 4th person . We were told extra towels were in the closet but there were only 3 towels and 3 blankets . No coffee or other snacks available. It was clean and safe.

Quick, easy, convenient

Great place to stay for a quick one day trip to DC for a show. We arrived Saturday around 5pm and left Sunday morning. Mostly just needed a place to crash. The house is a very quick walk (5 minutes max) from a great pub that we went to before and after the show. We did hear footsteps through a lot of the night, but that was expected as it is a basement apartment. It would be nice to have a fan available to plug into the wall in order to both drown out the noise and provide some breeze with the summer warmth.

Clean home but not the best

It a home to stay one night no more than that. It’s a home to spend a night at that’s all. We were looking forward to enjoying a breakfast hand cooked by ourselves, but no dishes or pots or pans to cook with. Half of the accessories worked. The WiFi didn’t work right, neighbors were up stumping around all night and day. Be very aware the homeless tends to roam around at night so be concerned with your safety. The metal doors can easily be gotten into. We even found a open water bottle in fridge along with a illegal substance in the kitchen drawer allow with scissors with a white substance on them not even cleaned. My family was shocked and very displeased. Won’t be staying here again!!

Affordable place in DC

This property is the perfect place for a short visit to DC or if you plan on being out for most of the day. Owner is friendly, helpful and will give suggestions for your stay in the city if you ask.

Amazing Stay

Dr. Koura truly had an amazing property. It was nice, clean and comfortable and a very cool 63 degrees upon arrival which was excellent as it was in the mid 90’s when we arrived in DC. She responded quickly and the rules were clear. She had everything we needed for an excellent stay in DC. I will recommend her property to anyone! An will gladly come back again. My boyfriend did accidentally pack her door stop but we cleared up and handled the matter. If you want to relax and come home to a cozy atmosphere this your place! 5 stars!

No gem and unsafe

This property is no gem; not even close. Stained futon to sleep on, worn sheets, dirty sink and air vents and thermostat was locked to 67 during winter. Neighborhood is unsafe as while we were looking for hidden entry (no outside light on) to basement the car was stolen right in front of us in under 2 minutes. Police said stolen vehicles are rampant. And to add insult, owner charged group of elderly women $100 after we left for just being in DC on Jan 6; no damage and no reason. You get the idea, so if you want cheap and carry personal protection, then this is your place.

4th of July

I stayed at this property for the 4th of July with some friends. We were only sleeping here, but the stay was very comfortable. Everything was very clean. The location was nice and a very safe neighborhood. The beds were nice and comfortable as well. Communicating with the property owner was a breeze, she replied promptly and was very easy to work with. This is a great place to stay for anyone traveling on a budget and just needing a good place to sleep.

Worked great for us

What we really needed was a clean, comfy place to shower and sleep and ease of getting to public transportation. We definitely got all of those in this property. While the property is old and could use a bit of TLC, it was quaint and we felt safe there. It would have been even better had there been a little refrigerator for keeping soft drinks. The Metro bus stops only a block from this place and stops again a block from Union Station where you can find many options for fast food and can catch other buses, the subway, the free Circulator bus, or various tour bus options. The owner was really great to work with and we enjoyed our time in DC very much!

Charming, Quiet, Comfy, & Great Neighborhood with a Fantastic & Classy Hostess-Thank You!!

This spotless, extremely comfortable, & surprisngly spacious basement apartment was the perfect landing pad for me to rest & rejuvenate after a busy conference this past spring. Now, don't think musty, dank, or dark because this is a basement property, because this apartment is quite the opposite! This space is airy, appealing, & surprisingly bright! The neighborhood was delightful, SAFE, & quiet. I found the bed to be so comfortable, I was reluctant to leave it in the morning. The water pressure in the bathroom (and it's a great bathroom as well!) is to die for. I looked forward to my evening shower & had a mini-spa of sorts each night before bed. Linens were high quality, with clean fluffy towels & washcloths, & soft sheets & blankets. I was able to sleep with my bedroom window slightly cracked open to enjoy a little fresh air while I slept. The owner also offers free wifi, which came in extremely handy in preparing for the conference. The only hiccups (there WERE no real problems with my stay at all!) were the temperature & trash. Being that in-between time of year temperature-wise, I did have to request that Dr. Doura turn off the heat, as we had an unexpected heat wave during my stay. The apartment tends to be pleasantly cool. NO PROBLEM! Dr. Doura solved the issue IMMEDIATELY after I messaged her. I wasn't sure where to put the trash, so I made my own bag and left it in the kitchen area in hopes this was an appropriate spot for easy removal by my hostess. Apologies if it wasn't! The owner of this property is extremely attentive, kind, & accomodating. I even accidentally sent several duplicate messages to her (annoyingly) because I wasn't sure they were getting through, yet my hostess remained patient with my lack of expertise. She goes the extra mile to make sure guests are comfortable & happy for the duration of their stay. My only suggestions would be to add a mini-fridge & a small coffee maker to the property so that guests can grab a small breakfast or snacks. Maybe some small bedside reading lamps as well? Outside of that, maybe a couple of extra towels for people with longer hair would be a good idea, though I imagine Dr. Doura can accomodate any such requests! Even without these things, this English Gem was perfect for me. I'd gladly book another stay in this Bloomingdale apartment. This was a five star stay all around, & I'm absolutely delighted I chose this property. Thank you Dr. Doura!
