The reviews aren't on this page.
They're where the stay was verified.

You're about to book a furnished home, sight-unseen, from a small owner-operator you may have just met. You should check the receipts first — and you should be able to check them somewhere CHG can't edit them. So we don't. Every review you'll read was left by a guest the booking platform already verified actually stayed. Here is each home's live rating, pulled straight from its OTA listing, with a one-tap link to read every word yourself.

Read every review on the listing

Figures shown are the current ratings on each home's live booking listing, not a number we keep on this page. Tap through to verify — and to see the full review history, dates, and the host's responses.

In their words

What guests actually say

A sample, verbatim from real stays — the corporate, government, healthcare, and project guests CHG is built for. Every review is readable in full on our live listings.

Everything was exactly as pictured. The apartment was spotless, beautifully furnished, and in the perfect location. Jordan was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay.
Stephanie B.Corporate relocation · 30-day stay
We've been doing TDY housing in the DC area for years and this was the best experience we've had. The apartment felt like a real home, not a corporate box.
Robert C.Government contractor · TDY assignment
The check-in was seamless and the welcome guide with restaurant recommendations was a great touch. Everything we needed was already there.
Elaine Jo Y.Travel nurse · extended stay
Much better than an extended-stay hotel at a similar price point. Full kitchen, in-unit laundry, and a real workspace made all the difference for a multi-week project.

Why this page looks different

We don't post our own star rating on purpose

Most operator sites paint a glowing average across the homepage and call it proof. We won't — and the refusal is the proof. A rating you can't trace isn't a review; it's a claim. Ours stay where a stranger can audit them.

  1. 01 · The number lives on the platform

    Each rating you saw above is the live figure on the listing that took the booking. We don't re-type it into a banner here, where we'd control it. We point you to where it's kept honest.

  2. 02 · Only verified guests can leave one

    Platform reviews come from people the booking system confirms actually stayed. That's a gate a testimonial slider on a marketing site simply doesn't have — so the few we quote above are a sample, and we point you to the full, verified set to read for yourself.

  3. 03 · No self-graded report card

    You won't find an aggregate star badge or a "rated 4.9 by our guests" stamp anywhere on chghomes.com. Self-asserted ratings are exactly what a careful booker should distrust — so we don't ask you to.

  4. 04 · Small operator, nowhere to hide

    Three homes, one owner who answers personally. With a portfolio this focused, every stay is traceable to a real listing and a real review history. That accountability is the whole pitch — and it only works if you can check it.

The aggregate is a count of verified stays — not a star average we assert. The stars belong to each listing. Read why we run CHG this way, or see the homes themselves.
