This was the 2nd time I stayed at Jd's home. He's such a wonderful host and went out of his way to make sure I had everything I needed. His apartment does get a bit chilly, but he turned up the heat so it wasn't as cold as it is heated by the main furnace. Thank you, Jd! See you soon!!

Jd was a wonderful host! He was so friendly and helpful! The apartment was conveniently located within walking distance to grocery stores and had everything we needed.

Enjoyed the stay. Thank you again for all the support. There was a few issues (we parked in the wrong spot) and JD was very cool how he handled the situation. Plan to come back on next trip.

It was perfect and exactly what we needed!

Jd's place is simply wonderful. The location, structure and appliances are superb. Proximity to eateries, stores and such, just a walking distance, yet the house itself is quiet and relaxing. Jd himself was readily available, friendly and often checked to see if I might need anything. I'll surely look to stay there again if I'm in the area.

Jd's apartment was clean. The beds were all comfortable. The experience was overall pleasant. He was very accommodating and helpful.

House is nice. He is very friendly. Comfortable experience

Excellent place and host

My second stay with Tara and Sergio was great! I felt very comfortable and safe. It was home away from home. I highly recommend either one of the bedroom options.

Tara & Sergio were very friendly and welcoming. Their home is clean and comfortable. I had a wonderful and relaxing stay. I'd recommend this listing, in fact I've already booked another stay.

Tara & Sergio's place was absolutely beautiful. The neighborhood is quiet, the house was spotless and the bed was comfortable. Very close to the pavilion and several eating options. I'd love to stay there again any time there's a concert I'm interested in seeing.

I definitely enjoyed my stay! Super clean. Friendly hosts. Extra comfy bed. Really cool fixtures in the newly remodeled bathroom. Refreshing color theme in bedroom and bathroom. Relaxing eatting space. Looking forward to my next stay with Tara and Sergio. Thank you! Sierra

I had a very nice stay. They have every set perfectly for their guests. The room & bathroom was spotless. I didn't get to meet Tara & Sergio but hope to on my next visit. Stay with them. You won't be disappointed.

Tara and Sergio are SO nice! They are bilingual in English and Spanish. They greeted us upon check in, showed us around (&how everything worked), and even gave local recommendations for things to do and restaurants (for literally any type of food we asked about!) The room is super comfortable, clean, have lots of natural light and simply beautiful. Also, the bathroom is gorgeous with everything you could possible need (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothpaste ETC.)! Everything was exactly as pictured, probably even better in person. Very nice amenities, bed is very comfy, and the hosts were very accommodating! Perfectly situated between D.C. and Baltimore. We walked to get coffee in the morning before we left, pretty close & it was delicious. If you're looking for a GREAT place to stay on a budget, don't look any further, this listing is a steal. I will DEFINITELY be back here when I am in town again.

Tara & Sergio's place is great. It was very clean and nice. I felt right at home. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was also nice and clean. I would stay here over and over. I definitely recommend.

Great stay, beautiful home and excellent hosts.

I had an extended stay with Dhaval, Freny, and their wonderful boys. The accommodations were great. It featured a large bedroom with closet space and a computer desk, a living room sitting area, countertop kitchenette with microwave and refrigerator, private bath and access to washer and dryer. Side door access to this basement apartment made me feel like this was my humble abode. Dhaval and Freny were so amazing hosts. The communicated with me throughout my entire 6 week stay, offered Sunday breakfast with them and their family, while at the same time, gave me the privacy I desire while on business. I would recommend this listing for anyone looking to stay in the Columbia, MD area. Thanks again, guys.

Greeted upon arrival - very gracious and welcoming. The accommodations were as described - excellent value, like a private suit, plenty of comfortable space, great location with easy access to Columbia, Baltimore, DC - very modern, clean, inviting - a home away from home.

Host was well communicated, very friendly. The place was nice, clean as it was described. Overall a very pleasant stay. Thank you very much!

I was reminded to collect the keys when the booking time had started. My guests had a late flight and I had informed the same and the hosts were accommodating. If you are in he Columbia area, you should try this place.

Dhaval and his wife were warm and welcoming hosts. They were great communicators before my arrival and, once I was there, checked in with me periodically to make sure everything was okay. Their studio apartment was perfect in every way -- cheerfully decorated, well furnished and completely private. Their home is located in a quiet neighborhood that is quite accessible to shops and restaurants. The area is quite beautiful and I enjoyed being there on a sunny spring weekend with all the trees in bloom. I will definitely stay there again when I am in the area.

I was welcomed and warmly greeted upon arrival and shown the spacious, clean, happy, well decorated studio. Communication was great. Very nice family, neighborhood and studio. Convenient to everything I needed.

Freny was very welcoming! She showed me around the space and let me know where everything could be found. The English Basement was very cozy and the bed was comfortable. We stayed down the block from a friend of ours and walked back and forth often - the neighborhood is lovely! Freny and Dhaval responded to my messaged almost immediately!

Nice quiet place to stay. I've stayed a number of times and always had a good experience.

Quiet and peaceful room

Super close to the Merriwether Pavilion. Ideal for a single person in town for a concert. Clean and as described. No frills. Just what you need. A bed and a shower.

Felt very welcome and at home at Nathan's place. Very accommodating

Nathan is a very cool and nice person. I absolutely enjoyed my stay here. I asked him the permission to let my friends come over and hang out with me for dinner. My friends and Nathan and I had a lot of fun and interesting conversations. Nathan treats his guests just like treats his family. Thank you brother!

Fantastic. Nathan was very accommodating. This place is as good a value as any I've ever stayed in. As long as you have transportation to where you need to go then I highly recommend this one. Great host.

Nice

Comfortable and neat.

Nathan is a friendly and communicative host. The place needs some TLC.

Martha and Kevin are Amazing hosts who have a beautiful house. They made us feel welcome even before we arrived. They went above and beyond expectations. The highland getaway was spotless and felt like our own home We can't thank you enough for such a great stay. We will return in 2017 and hope to meet you both in person.

This is an excellent place of refuge and relaxation. Nestled in a rural area of trees and wildlife, this retreat is perfect for individuals and couples looking for a peaceful getaway.

The pictures truly do not do this place justice. It is serene, modern, and absolutely beautiful. Martha and Kevin were gracious hosts who provided snacks and even wine, and it was meticulously neat and clean. We loved the board game options and all the extras they included. The space features huge, sprawling windows that offer magnificent sunlight and views of nature, but do note that there aren't curtains, so privacy could be limited. Overall, we rate this place 5 stars and would hands down recommend it to anyone!

Martha and Kevin were excellent hosts! Very quick response times and also very accommodating. The house was very beautiful; we felt like we were staying at the beach! The property was very well kept and all the landscaping was gorgeous. Can't wait to go back!

Martha and Kevin have put a lot of care and detail into their home and it shows! The house is a loft by the pool with plenty of space for a couple or maybe a couple with a young kid. I Lloved waking up and seeing the trees first thing in the morning! Note that there isn't a sink in the kitchenette so this isn't a good fit if you plan to cook a lot. Getting to the bathroom requires a short jaunt through the charming screened porch. This was fine for me with the warm temps but not sure how it would be in the winter or cold. Maybe they close it up? But you might want to ask. A lovely restful location for retreat and relaxation!

Plenty of space in a serene, tranquil wooded setting. Accessing the bathroom from the porch (separate from the main living/sleeping area) was unexpected. Otherwise a fine value and restful location.

This magical place is so peaceful and scenic! You will sleep on the most comfortable bed ever, and the large windows showcase the beauty of the landscape. Kevin and Martha were very thorough in making sure my stay was thoroughly enjoyable. I am a musician in town for Navy band auditions and they were very welcoming to my practicing in the guest house. I hope it is available for when the next audition comes up!

Martha and Kevin are amazing hosts. Any questions i had they responded quickly and communicated very well. Our cats absolutely loved the porch and the upstairs space, as did we. They thought of everything you could possibly need including wonderful treats, coffee, wine. Fresh flowers on thr table. Surrounded by woods and absolutely relaxing. It was quiet, private. Very well set up and clean. Not too far from Baltimore, or DC. It was a pleasure meeting them both and I definitely recommend staying here and will again if I need a break from everything.

Very small room in the basement, disgusting as mattress linen and carpet is very dirty, looks like never been cleaned for a month, food crumbs all over, communicates well but sometimes moves you from a certain house to another, just sketchy overall

Julie's place was perfect. Columbia is nice!

Julie was very quick to communicate and accommodating.

Greatest

Lucy was very friendly and accommodating. The home was easy to find and in a beautiful neighborhood. I came pulling a trailer and there was plenty of safe off road parking. The rooms where very private and away from the main living area. I did not feel like I was disturbing them when I would get in late at night. We would stay again.

Lucy's place is perfect if you want a super quiet and secluded location. It's very suburban. Lucy is very nice and welcomed us quite graciously. We only stayed one night so it really was a spot for us to sleep (3 friends), which worked out perfectly. We ate at a cute pub just 5 minutes away. It's quite dark and winding on the roads if you are driving at night. One note for future guests is that the path to the entry was very steep. Maybe an issue for some, although Lucy does have a front door. Thanks Lucy!

I stayed at this location for approx. 2 months. For the extended period I stayed in, this location/room worked out perfect for me. There is more than enough room to feel completely at ease. Lucy is an excellent host who not only cares about your comfort, but also goes the extra mile to make you feel at home. I'm so glad that I chose this location and had such a comfortable stay. Would highly recommend this place whether you plan on staying short time or for extended periods! The location is convenient to Baltimore and DC and belongs in an area which not only is peaceful and quiet but very upscale and safe also. The kitchenette is decently stocked along with a large refrigerator and hotplate for extended and comfortable stay. The room is large with a walk in closet. There is more than enough room here. Thank you Lucy for an excellent stay!

Great stay, Lucy was accommodating and made sure I had everything I needed.

My Host was great made feel at home. Very private, respected my privacy, always making sure that, I had everything I needed. Lucy was the best.

This serene sanctuary really is a "home away from home" as the listing says. The bedroom/bathroom suite with private balcony where I stayed is beautiful, private, spacious, and peaceful. Xi and family are a delight - very welcoming and kind, easy going and friendly. They did so many things to make my stay great and at the same time I had all the privacy I needed. They also welcomed me to use other sections of the house, including the kitchen, refrigerator, and a truly stunning sun room with spacious deck to rejuvenate. The location is ideal and so convenient, a few minutes from Columbia and just a short drive to Baltimore or DC. It's a great, relaxing oasis for a business trip or vacation. I would definitely stay here again!

Great

My wife and I were visiting family in the area and needed a place to stay for eight nights. Lucy was a gracious host. She made us feel welcomed and she looked out for all of our needs. She even offered to do laundry for us. The room and bath were clean and exceeded our expectations. Communication with Lucy before and during our stay was easy. Lucy looked out for us, even texting us to be careful driving home one night when there was spotty fog in the area. We will stay with Lucy when we are back in the area. Thank you Lucy and family for the Christmas present. Alan and Susan

Lovely family and extremely hospitable. Suite is exactly as described. We hope to stay again.

Rose is a very welcoming and kind host that was very easy to talk too, great room, and very comfortable bed!

Nice room in a quiet neighborhood was all I was looking for.. Rose is a very accommodating host, she worked with the last minute change and made sure there was everything I needed..

It was great. She is very nice and the room was very accommodating.

Rose throws it all out there and opens her home to you. There is no fear of feeling like a stranger in her house.

Rose is a great person, full of energy, kindness and attentions. We have become almost instantly good friends. Her house is great, a beautiful location, close to a handy supermarket, among nice houses, squirrels and many trees. My room was really cool, a big bed, very comfortable, and had a bathroom on my own. If you happen to be in Columbia, it's a particularly enjoyable staying which I do recommend.

Rose is an exceptional host, She is very welcoming and friendly. Her place is exactly as described. The area is quiet and peaceful.

Rose is one of the nicest people I've met. She makes sure throughout your stay that you are comfortable. The world would be a Better to lace with more people like her. Very nice and makes You feel at home in her home. The room was comfortable and communication with her was excellent. Highly recommend!

Rose has a comfortable home and she made me feel welcome. Room and townhouse were clean. Rose provided coffee, tea, and juice plus fruit. The townhouse is located minutes from Colombia Mall so that was very convenient.

I would give this 6 out of 5 stars. Sue was fantastic. She is super agreeable, nice and very accomdating (more on that in a little bit). My sister and I were visiting my mom in Maryland for a few days and rather than spending money at a hotel I checked out airbnb. My other few experiences with airbnb places was okay/decent. So naturally booking this place I didn't really have high expectations. I just needed a quiet place with enough beds for two. Finding the place was a little tricky but I attribute that to being an outsider and not really knowing the area. But Sue provided clear instructions for checking in. We checked in pretty late around 11 pm so my sister and I were petty dead beat tired. Checking in was very, very easy. Key was in a lock box and we just got in with no problems (did I mention this place has a parking spot!). Sue's place is the cleaniest I've been to. Also, my sister and I really appreciated the no shoes in house. We grew up not wearing shoes in the house (because it's dirty) so that was an added comfort of knowing that Sue maintains a high level of cleanliness. My sister and I are sort of OCD about cleanliness so we even brought our own slippers. Much to our surprise Sue provides indoor slippers! So rare to find such an amenity provided. She provided a fruit platter which was a nice added bonus. Kitchen was stocked full of food. Oatmeals, cereals, eggs, bread, milk and whatever else. We really did not expect a fully stocked pantry. Kitchen was clean and well maintained. Floors a little slippery if you're just wearing socks so put on those slippers. Living area was comfy. Good sofa arrangement and distance from the wall mounted tv; good way to relax in the evening after a full day's worth of activities. Sleeping area is on the second floor. Stairs are a bit steep but at the top of the stairs is the bathroom and to the left are two rooms. One thing to note is that one of the rooms is actually sort of like a loft where the far wall is missing and is overlooking the living room. FYI for any light sleepers. But the room has two beds, a desk and a closet. Sue provides an ironing board and iron so for those folks out there that iron clothes, this is a plus. Second room is a room with four walls. Good sized bed (queen?) so good for more than one person if needed. Dresser is provided for storage and a closet as well. We all have own preferences for mattress types so I can't speak to that but bedding felt and smelled clean. Thumbs up. Bathroom is clean, clean, clean. Again for clean freaks this is a huge plus. Nothing looked, felt, smelled moldy and/or dirty. Everything you need is literally there. Shampoo, conditioner,...

Sue is a great host and the condo was perfect for my kids and I. It is central in Columbia, easy to get around and reasonably priced. Very spacious and comfortable. A quiet neighborhood. I drove to Wash D.C to see the sights in 45 min or less and Baltimore is close by. No complaints. I definitely will stay there again when I am in the area.

Was a clean, pleasant place to stay. Very quiet and peaceful. Recommend this place to others.

Sue's place was exactly as described. The unit was very clean and well maintained. Sue went above and beyond to make sure we were accommodated as best as possible. Highly recommended! She is great!

Sue and her friend were very welcoming. They made sure the condo was stocked with breakfast foods and essentials. The place was very clean and quiet, and the location was great (near many grocery stores and Columbia Town Center mall).

My husband and I stayed at Sue's condo for 3 days. We were in town for a rock festival at Merriweather Pavilion. Location was great...Walk to get coffee, short Uber trip to Mall and Merriweather. The neighborhood was quiet and beautiful. Sue was a gracious hostess. Chocolates and a thank you note was on the dining room table upon are arrival, as well as, fresh fruit and food staples in the refrigerator and pantry for us to use while we were there. She checked up on us a few times to make sure we had everything we need to be comfortable. The condo is an older condo in need of an update but was clean and for the most part comfortable. Didn't impact our stay too much since we weren't there too often, just to shower and sleep. The largest bed was a full and was a little uncomfortable only because we are used to sleeping in a king-sized bed. Overall our stay was great and we would stay here again for our annual trip to the area.

Its a cute house close to the mall and freeways. Clean house with basic amenities

This place is awesome if you are looking for a super clean and comfortable place to stay. Our vacation trip was in fall and the area was very scenic. We found Sue a graceful host. She welcomed us in the airport, handed the keys and was concerned to make sure we have everything needed including breakfast and even some fruits. I would definitely recommend this place for a stay.

I could not have had a better or easier time while staying in Anthony's home. Check-in was simple, they had a convenient digital system for getting in and out of the house, and they were incredibly warm and welcoming. Anthony and his family are wonderfully hospitable. He and his wife Stephanie made sure I had everything I could need for a great stay, from breakfast to recommendations on where to spend some free time while in town. We spent hours talking about product design, healthcare, history, and how their daughter is definitely going to grow up and change the world. I was traveling on business, and I'm finding myself hoping it becomes a consistent gig partly to have the opportunity to stay with Tony and his family again.

The reviews are spot on. Tara does a fantastic job of having their home impeccably clean, conveniently accessible and communicates well with any questions we had. We really felt at home here. The bathroom was beautiful and were provided with nice large white fluffy towels in our room which had a comfy bed with extra pillows and blankets. Would definitely stay here again next time we return to the Columbia area. Keep up the great work Tara and Sergio!

Tara and Sergio highly maintains this place. They were easily reachable before and during my stay. Once I checked they made sure I was comfortable and provided me with everything I needed. Though I only used my space for bedding, it was good to know that I also had access to the kitchen and the living room. The place is very clean and as a traveler that's what you want to come home to - a hotel style kind-of-space. The money is definitely worth this space and vice-versa. I will definitely go back again.

Tara & Sergio have a beautiful home that is very clean and cozy. My boyfriend and I have been driving for 30 days and it was the perfect place to come back to and unwind after long days of sight seeing in D.C. They were absolutely fantastic about answering all our questions and communicating. Their home is just a short drive to Washington D.C and was perfect for the two of us. If we're ever back in the D.C area we will absolutely book with them again! Thank you to them both for a great stay!

Definetdly, I recommend this place! Great house, location and hosts!

Very easy and comfortable stay!

Our stay at Tara's and Sergio's house was great. Communication and check in was very nice, Sergio showhed us and told us everything important. Room was so comfy, clean, spacious and stylish, bathroom as well. Lot of things were provided such as facial tissues, body lotion, hand cream... We would definitely come back!

Great place, well appointed with friendly hosts. One of the best stats I've had.

Tara & Sergio were GREAT host. Their house was by far the cleanest and neatest that I've experienced with Airbnb. I would suggest this house for everyone. They really made you feel comfortable and at home. If they were not booked I would've booked another week with them. With that being said, I would definitely book again. Thanks again Tara for all of your help! I REALLY ENJOYED MY STAY..

Everything was perfect. Description was accurate. Loved being there.

Ralph was a fabulous host and made me feel at home. The room was quiet and clean. The house and surrounding area was great too. I would definitely stay here again if I came back to the area.

A wonderful place to stay! The home is located against the local woodlands and nature trails, with a playground less than a minute down the path. The guest rooms are spacious and very comfortable. Ralph and his wife were tremendous hosts and very hospitable. If you are coming to Columbia, I highly recommend staying here!

A+. We had an outstanding stay at Kathy & Ralph's for the Women's March on Washington. The beds were very comfortable and the bathroom lovely and spotless. The house is tasteful, peaceful, and elegant. Ralph was available to chat and offer transportation and restaurant advice, and we had a great time talking with him. Next time I visit D. C. I will try to stay here again.

Ralph & Kathy's home far exceeded our expectations. The location (adjacent to a quiet forest) is perfect for leaving the hustle and bustle of a busy day behind. The second floor was our two-bedroom plus bath domain with stellar views of the forest in Spring. As someone with back issues, I appreciated the high quality and comfort of the mattress. All of the areas in the house were clean and beautifully furnished. Although we spoke mostly with Ralph, both hosts were helpful and pleasant individuals. Indeed, Kathy shared good insights with us based on her area of expertise. I would not hesitate to highly recommend this home for anyone traveling to Columbia and environs.

Staying with Ralph was a delight – he was the perfect host and this past weekend was one of my best Airbnb experiences to date! He was very on top of communication prior to arrival and made us feel like visiting family when we were there. The house is fantastic and is located in a beautiful neighborhood. The guest room and private bathroom were perfect and it was exactly what we were looking for. My boyfriend and I were in town for a concert at the Merriweather Pavilion and the house is only a few miles away from the venue. Ralph so kindly dropped us off AND picked us up from a concert. We had a terrific weekend and really enjoyed exchanging traveling stories over a cup of coffee in the morning. We hope to be back soon!

This is a great place to stay! The hosts were great, will use again if I have another trip to Columbia!

Ralph and Kathy are such amazing hosts! The rooms and bathroom are immaculate and make staying there after a busy day a great haven to relax and recharge. Both Ralph and Kathy are knowledgeable about the area and are more than willing to give you recommendations about the area. It was our first time in Columbia and we brought are 5,3, and 1 year old. Not an easy trip but Ralph and Kathy made us feel so at home. I can't recommend them enough if you are ever in Columbia. Such awesome people and an awesome accommodation! Thank you both!

great place to stay.

the cats are adorable
