Old Town
Heart of Old Town offers you that old town loc and feel which is what we were looking for. Unit was clean and well kept. Unfortunately the unit is quite noisy with airport travel and general street conversation which was pretty disturbing at times. Better insulated glass and window air panels might help make a more relaxing stay.. Check in was pretty rough causing us to have to contact the owner on several occasions to gain access. Bathroom sink/drain also needs attention.

Ideal location
Property is great location. We drove in from another state, parked in public parking garage for $10 a day. Free trolley runs 11am-11pm. Took the trolley to the metro into DC. Just a few stops from airport as well. So if you do not have your own car really easy to get around. Farmers market is Saturday 7am to ?, so many restaurants on King Street. Close to water. Highly recommend. Our teenager slept on pullout sofa
