1 bedroom
1 bathroom

The stay of a lifetime awaits at this quaint, luxuriously furnished Old Town Alexandria apartment. This wholly private 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom space is situated only one block off King Street and just a short walk from the Metro. Perfect for business travelers needing walkable access to the greater D.C. metro area, as well as couples and small groups looking for a Hallmark-worthy experience.

Good to know

This apartment is best suited for two guests and is located in a nearly 200-year-old historic Old Town building. Like many properties of this era, it includes authentic architectural quirks such as slightly uneven floors and settled doors that reflect its character and history. A sofa bed is available for additional flexibility, though it is best suited for guests needing last-minute accommodations. The main bed however, is to die for.

Other Details to Note

Free time-limited street parking and paid street parking are available nearby. If you plan to keep a vehicle during your stay, we strongly recommend purchasing a Guest Parking Permit from the host (details provided after booking). Street sweeping takes place weekly on Tuesdays, and parking is not permitted along N. Patrick Street on those days.

Neighborhood

Old Town Alexandria is a nationally recognized historic district along the Potomac River just minutes from Washington, D.C. Known for its cobblestone streets, 18th- and 19th-century architecture, and waterfront charm, it blends history with modern living. Guests can stroll King Street’s brick sidewalks lined with boutiques, cafés, and restaurants, explore the Torpedo Factory Art Center, or take the water taxi to The Wharf or National Harbor. The neighborhood is walkable, safe, and vibrant, offering easy access to the Metro, scenic parks, and a lively mix of local shops and nightlife.

Guest Access

A small supply closet is reserved for host use and is not accessible to guests. For safety reasons, one additional doorway remains locked and is not available for use. The property also includes long-term residents in other units, so we kindly ask guests to be mindful of noise levels, particularly during early mornings and late evenings.

Great place. Cozy, squeaky clean and as advertised. Great location in Old Town and though located on a corner street, it was very quiet. Loved the place and would definitely reserve this gem again!

We really enjoyed our stay at Flavio’s. We were very pleased with how quickly he responded to our texts about parking permit which I forgot to buy and also a minor plumbing issue. He went out of his way to solve these issues immediately. I appreciated his choice of quality coffee and his espresso machine. We love good coffee so it was a great surprise. We would recommend his place for anyone who wants to stay in Old Town and be close to Metro. We were in and out of DC several times and it is so much easier than driving.

We had a very good stay at Flavio’s place. He was responsive, helpful, and easy to communicate with throughout our stay. We especially appreciated his help with parking and his thoughtful message on our departure day about possible airport delays. We also had a small issue with the ID verification system before check-in, and he handled it very patiently and professionally. The stay was comfortable overall, and the bed was especially comfortable. Thank you again for hosting us.
