ALEXANDRIA, VA—A soon-to-open Airbnb building in Alexandria can claim historical ties to George Washington.

The George, a townhouse at 506 Cameron Street next to Washington's own townhouse, is aiming to open in July, WJLA reported. The home's kitchen had likely been used to cook for Washington.

Owners Steven and Martha Peterson filled the home with historical decor and images of the first president. The townhouse has eight bedrooms with private bathrooms, which will run around $200 per night.
