This property is conveniently located with access to multiple forms of public transport.
Dash Bus: DASH is a local bus service that is free to riders. It travels all over Alexandria, but will not take you into DC. You can hop on the Dash Bus just a few feet from the front door in both directions.
WMAT Bus: If you were to take a WMAT bus which travels around Northern VA and DC, you would have to either use your phone, acquire a smartrip card, or have exact change on the bus itself.
Metro: We are located a little less than a mile from the King Street Metro Station and a little over 1 mile to the Braddock Street Station. There is a bus stop nearby for the free Alexandria city bus (Dash) that runs directly to the Metro stop. {Trains: Blue and Yellow Lines}. It would take you less than 5 mins by car and probably 15-20 mins to walk it if the weather was nice.
Amtrak: Amtrak provides interstate travel and also has a stop at King Street. If headed north, the next stop after King Street is Union Station in Washington DC. Please check their website for schedules and available stops.
King Street Trolley: You’re about 1 block to King street to pick up the Trolley. The King Street Trolley runs every 15 minutes between Alexandria City Hall/Market Square and the King St – Old Town Metrorail station from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., seven days a week, including holidays.
**There are also ample Uber and Lyft rides in the area.
Please just let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks! Laurie and Collin

For guests with new profiles without reviews, these requests will be reviewed manually and are subject to screening before a reservation is confirmed.
PARKING: **PLEASE BE CONSCIOUS OF OUR NEIGHBORS PARKING SPOTS** You may park in the free private parallel parking spot in front of the grey garage or if your vehicle is small enough you may also park in the garage itself. Parallel parking is from the edge of our door to the edge of our garage. Large SUVs, full size trucks, and vans may be too large for this spot and we would please ask you be conscious of our neighbors and find parking elsewhere should your vehicle be too large. There is paid street parking available all over OldTown, download the Parkmobile app if you plan to park around town...although you can walk everywhere from here. You can open the garage from the inside once you've gained access to the home. Unfortunately, there is no garage door opener remote. There is a paid car park directly across the street and an open air lot about 2 blocks west on Cameron should you need additional parking.

We had a wonderful stay at this townhouse in Alexandria! The location was perfect — close to everything we needed and in a lovely neighborhood. The place was spotless, beautifully maintained, and tastefully decorated, making it feel warm and welcoming. Overall, it was a great experience, and we would definitely stay here again
The house is well maintained with very nice furnishings and amenities. Excellent communication from the hosts. Great location in the heart of Old Town.
We had a wonderful stay here. The location was great, everything was clean and all the instructions for the house were clear and easy to follow. We have family in the area and plan on using the property again when we visit.
We had a great stay at the Layfette house for our girls weekend! The home is perfectly located, gorgeous, comfortable and clean. It was well stocked with everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable. Thank you for having us!
Our family of four enjoyed our stay at this beautiful Old Town Alexandria property. The location was perfect for walking around Old Town and we were able to get into DC within 15-20 minutes. The communication was exceptional and our hosts Laurie and Collin were always quick to respond when we had any concerns.
This place was perfect for our shopping weekend in Alexandria. Super convenient location. Clean place with spacious rooms. The mattresses were a bit more firm than we prefer, but we all still slept well. Communication was easy.
The house was beautiful and just perfect for my college roomies to get together to celebrate our 60th birthdays. The beds were so comfy, the layout was perfect for a lovely dinner, game night or just morning coffee. The owners were super responsive when we had questions. Lastly, the location was great for shopping, restaurants and walking along the water. Perfect place to stay at! Highly Recommend!
This property is roomy and comfortable. It is just blocks from waterfront and a fun, easy 20 min walk to Metro - shops, restaurants, coffee shops- through the heart of old town. Many historic buildings in neighborhood as well. The area is safe and you feel safe as well. The property helped make our stay a great one!
Great and well furnished property at superb location
3 floor house with 3 to 4 bedrooms. Well furnished with quality things. Very well kept and maintained. Location at old Alexandria could not be better. Very accurate description of the house at the site. Very attentive and responsive owners
Beautiful property. Clean. Well appointed and supplied. Excellent and convenient location. Advertised as a 4 bdrm unit but it’s really a 3 bdrm. with a lofted sleeping area included in Bedroom #3. There is no wall or door dividing the spaces. Also, there is no closet in the loft.
Very good location for enjoying the shoreline shops and restaurants, the Farmer’s Market on Saturday and all the shops continuing up King St. Home was clean and comfortable. Very nice stay in Alexandria!
The Lafeyette House is conveniently located near King Street and the waterfront to enjoy all the activities Old Town Alexandria has to offer. The house is very comfortable with covered parking available directly across the street. I especially enjoyed easy access to the Mount Vernon walking and biking trail.
Perfect place to stay for your trip to Old Alexandria. Very close many restaurants and shops on King. Our party of 5 adults and 1 child fit perfectly and the hosts were very responsive and accommodating.
