The house is located near the above-ground metro and Amtrak train station. While this makes those transit choices convenient, it also comes with some associated noise: the light rumble of the metro trains on the elevated tracks, and the occasional sound of a train horn. However, we have never experienced any issues with excessive noise inside the townhouse. For instance, it does not affect your ability to have a conversation or watch TV. The metro trains do not run after midnight (2am on weekends) and the Amtrak and commuter trains are infrequent.

The home was perfect for our stay in Alexandria. So close to the metro to DC and trolley to Old town. Fully equipped kitchen, clean and nicely decorated. Would stay again.
Our family of five enjoyed our stayIn this historic home. Location was Perfect distance to metro. Many shops,Restaurants, coffee shops were within walking distance. Neighborhood was safe.
Great place and hostess! We really enjoyed our time in Washington and this is a great place to stay conveniently located near the Metro and King street restaurants and shops. The beds are comfy and it’s very clean. Check in and out was easy. All the comforts of home including fully equipped kitchen and coffee.
Our family had a scheduled service at ANC and needed a location convenient to the Metro and Old Town Alexandria. This location was perfect especially since one of our family members was confined to a wheelchair.
Great little appt super close to two metro stops. Walking distance to tons of food/coffee spots. There’s even a good sports bar super close. It’s a bit older and about 100’ from metro tracks.
Perfect location for anyone going downtown. Metro, trains, and buses just a short block away. Plus there are plenty of places to shop or eat within walking distance.
Very nice with easy access to Metro and other public transportation. Very clean and well maintained. My wife and I and three teenage children found it comfortable and cozy. We would stay here again. Definitely recommend.
Close to shopping, dining, and the Metro. We were visiting family in the area & the location was excellent for this purpose. Maggie was a responsive host to all of our questions & needs. The only drawback for us old folks was that there was no bathroom on the main floor. Other than this, the place was bright, clean, & accommodating
