We had such a great stay at 107 South Lee Street! The house is full of Old Town charm but still has all the modern comforts you’d want. You really can’t beat the location — just a short walk to King Street, great restaurants, cute shops, and the waterfront.The home was super clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed. The bed were comfy, the kitchen was well stocked, and we loved having coffee in the morning while watching the neighborhood wake up. It honestly felt like home the minute we walked in.The host was super friendly and easy to communicate with, and check-in was a breeze. We’d definitely stay here again next time we’re in Alexandria!

Great location - steps to everything. Great Host- very responsive. Lovely stay! We pulled out the trundle bed the second night because we’re used to a king bed. Mr. is tall so he appreciated the very tall shower head. Unexpected- a late night trumpet serenade was very romantic and it turns out a famous local guy!
Like a lovely big studio. That’s a big trundle bed on the left.
Daybed alcove a bonus!
Fireplace ambiance! Darling desk with local info

Historic vibe with modern amenities

We loved our weekend in Old Town Alexandria and this place was a key part of it! The location is fantastic - took a train to Alexandria and then Uber to the place, so we didn't need a car all weekend. Tons of pubs/restaurants/activities going on within walking distance. Had a few hiccups with the heat and wifi, but the owner was responsive and took care of everything. Would def stay here again!

Incredible location!

Wow- this might be one of my favorite places I’ve stayed! My husband and I were visiting DC for the first time and decided to stay in old town Alexandria and this place was PERFECT! Literally a few steps away from all of the amazing restaurants and shops, but still tucked away enough to feel private. We had so much fun walking to coffee shops every morning and exploring the beautiful houses around Alexandria! We paid to park right across the street, and the metro was only a short (and scenic!) walk away so that made things very easy. Such a fun town and fun experience! I would highly recommend- you can’t get a location better than this one! And the house was soo cute and cozy!

Cozy, well thought out Studio Apartment with everything you need in a great location two blocks from the Potomac River Cruises and Water Taxi and a couple minutes walk to multiple top notch restaurants. Short walk to the Visitor Center and Market Square to catch the free Hop On Trolley to the King Street Station Metro and Amtrak Station, Thiessman's Restaurant and the path to the George Washington Masonic Memorial which is an architectural gem! I met Thomas the Owner, a wonderful human being and Super Host!

Love!

So perfect! I booked this property for a short work trip. I wanted a place that was close enough to my office, but still had (walkable) things to do while not at work. I was not disappointed! I was super close to all of the shops and restaurants on King St., and a very short walk to the waterfront. The apartment itself was so cozy, and perfect for a solo trip or a trip for a couple. The owners were very kind and prompt with their communications with me. 100% will book again if I'm ever in the area :)

Cozy and close to the action!

My husband and I stayed from 10/19-11/1 and enjoyed our stay. It was steps away from King St with all the restaurants and close to the Potomac River. There are also various shops and several walking tours. I provided feedback to the owner upon our departure. The space is not “short people” friendly as the shower stream was very high and there were no mirrors that we could use as those were high as well. The bed area did not have shelves to use for our phones to be within reach and the internet was a bit spotty so it needed to be restarted throughout our stay. Overall though, we had a wonderful stay and would choose this location again should we visit in the future! Thomas was very easy to reach and always checked to see if we needed anything. We were very pleased!

The Washington Family Property is beautifully situated in the heart of historic Old Town Alexandria. The property was easy to find and access was made simple thanks to great host instructions. We found the kitchen to be equipped with basic implements that suited our needs well for our 2 night stay. The studio was very clean with plenty of linens for the length of our stay. King St Metro was a pleasant walk 20 minutes, about a mile away, straight up King St. Our host was very responsive to my question about parking and provided several options in the area, we were able to get a parking garage right across the street for very reasonable! Overall we had a lovely stay and would come again!
