Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Washington

We stayed here for a couple nights with our two kids and dog and it worked well. Plenty of space for us. They do mention that the ceiling is very low and there are quite a few steps which are both very true but it is manageable. There is free parking right on their street which was a huge draw but construction limited the spaces when we were there, but Brian & Jess were helpful and we found free parking on the next street with no issue. We used public transportation to get around and it was very convenient and easy, two different bus stops super close by and easy to get to the metro. Lastly, it was so hot and very humid when we were there, the apartment is in the basement and it was musty and damp in the morning. Brian & Jess were helpful when we brought up, and were told the mini split unit has a dehumidifier setting and it seemed to help some. Brian & Jess were responsive and nice, and we’d recommend staying here when visiting DC!

My husband and I love this place, this is the second time that we have stayed here. Whenever we come to DC, if available, we will continue to stay at this place! Wonderful, it is a short walk to the train station, trader joes, restaurants, and the market!

We had a great week-long stay in J&C’s place. Terrific location, clean and comfortable home, lovely outdoor space. J&C were highly responsive and helpful. Highly recommend!

Literally speechless for how much we loved this place. She went above and beyond. You actually feel like a guest in one of a close family friend’s home and not a stranger. I’d love to return! 10/10 can’t recommend enough!

Cozy garden unit, perfect for a couple to spend a few days in the city. Quick walk to a lot of what the city has to offer. Would definitely stay here again. Very communicative and friendly hosts.

This was great! Gabriela was super kind, helpful, and responsive. The place was just what we needed for a weekend stay.

The place was great! Very clean and comfy for a great price! Chet was a very effective communicator and made sure that I had everything I needed! Would gladly stay here again.

The stay was great, the location was very central to getting around DC. The property was clean, ample space especially for two people. Having a washer and dryer in the unit was awesome not having to pack extra.

Peter and Co-hosts were awesome. The place was easy to access, and Peter was proactive in sharing details and was awesome to let us park nearby after check out. Would definitely recommend, and would stay here again when and if returning to DC. The location was tucked away enough to be away from traffic but close enough to access the big sites if you have a car. 10/10 recommend. And he’s right. The most affordable place you’ll find!!

Great location on a quiet street. Very walkable or a short bike ride. Monica is very responsive and welcoming. Everything you need.

We stayed here for a weekend for an event at the RFK fields. It was amazing. We were a 10 minute walk to there. It was wonderful. The place was perfect size for the two of us and had everything we needed! We will be back!

Dale’s Airbnb was perfectly appointed with everything we needed for our stay. Lots of special touches throughout the dwelling. A great outdoor space in the front of the house that is surrounded by a perfectly manicured garden area, along with a private patio off the back bedroom. Totally perfect areas to enjoy the many selections of coffees he’s kindly provided. The neighborhood is located close to lots of fun restaurants and is easy to navigate to all the DC monuments. The only regret we had was that we didn’t book for a longer stay.. We’re already looking forward to returning.. Oh, And by the way.. we loved linens so much I asked Dale for the “insider” tip on where he purchased them.. I’m hoping to have as great a nights sleep as I did at his place!!

The small apartment was perfect for my needs. Very quiet and peaceful. Great neighborhood with well kept homes. Paul was an excellent host that made accommodations for my earlier arrival. He was also very responsive and recommended walkable food/drink spots. The unit was impeccably clean. Would absolutely stay here again in my next trip to DC.

Enjoyed my stay at Mischella and Nathan’s place. The inside matched the description and had everything you could possibly need. The location was perfect and close to the metro, with the Mall being less than a mile away. Lots of great restaurants in the area too! Thank you Mischella and Nathan.

It is a lower level apartment of the owner's property, but it was very quiet and really no interaction with us other than a couple messages to check in with us. Very quiet and within walking distance to several restaurants, shops, and groceries (whole foods was only a block away). Pharmacy only two blocks. Apartment was clean, comfortable bed, and all the amenities you need.

Thanks so much, Scott! We loved how you’ve decorated your beautiful studio!

We had a wonderful stay at Lauren’s place and would highly recommend to anyone traveling to DC!

Benjamin was a very responsive host.

Abaad was very nice, proactive, communicative. The Airbnb was nice, as pictured. Would stay again.

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The place was clean, well-designed, and very comfortable — it truly felt like a home away from home. The self check-in with a simple access code was super convenient and made everything easy from the start. The location is amazing — close to all the main tourist spots in Washington, DC. We were just minutes away from the National Mall, museums, monuments, and great places to eat. It was the perfect base for exploring the city. The host was kind, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Fast Wi-Fi, comfy beds, and a quiet, safe neighborhood made the whole experience even better. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting DC and would love to stay again!

Willie’s place is at a spectacular location with great access to buses/trains to both DC and the Pentagon area. Overall, a very safe neighborhood and the apartment is in great conditions. While you can hear upstairs people’s footsteps, it didn’t bother us much since the amenities and cookwares were very convenient and of great quality. Totally recommend for anyone looking to visit DC area :)

very nice place and very well situated. It is clean, decorated with taste (lovely plants) and has everything you need! beds are also very comfortable. I definitely recommend!

The place was exactly what we hoped for. Very clean and tidy. There were extras of the things you need extras of. Great location!

Great apartment! Sean’s apartment is very comfortable and tastefully decorated. It is completely quiet at night and the bed is good. There is a good vibe in the neighbourhood and the apartment is less than five minutes from a Green Line metro station that will take you directly to the best art museums in the city. Sean and his co-hosts are very helpful and responsive. I hope to come back to Washington one day and if that happens, I will definitely try to book Sean’s apartment again. Thank you Sean, Megan and Loren for all your helpfulness and a lovely stay!
