Summary:
Amazingly located English basement in DC’s most vibrant neighborhood! This apartment is perfect for guests looking for easy access to the entire city, with a modern, clean & comfortable space to call home! Perfect for travelers on business or vacation, we would love to help you make the most of your stay in DC!

The Space:
We can sleep up to 4 guests in our lovely one bedroom english basement apartment, great for a young family or 2 professionals traveling together.  There is a queen sized bed in the bedroom, and a full sized sofa bed in the living area. 

The cleverly designed kitchen area comes complete with everything you need for preparing meals.  Breakfast bar seating for 4 guests is great for map perusing before starting the day of exploring, and doubles as a laptop friendly workspace, great for catching up on emails before taking on the city resting outside your door.

Need help planning your stay Just ask! We are more than happy to help, & provide an in depth property guide stock full of helpful hints about the neighborhood, with our tips for making the most of your stay in DC!

Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the entire lower level unit, it is not shared.

There is a family living upstairs. Please note that the everyday sounds and noises of family life (footsteps, stairs, kids playing, etc.) can be heard in both directions. You will undoubtedly hear them (and they will hear you) as they go about their everyday life.

The Neighborhood:
While DC is a city, it's one filled with parks and not by tall buildings. (This is hardly The Concrete Jungle!) Capitol Hill is very multicultural and very family friendly, but also has everything singles might want!

This quiet corner of iconic Capitol Hill feels close to all the action, but far enough away to ensure restful nights - a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle!

Aside from being so close to the United States Congress, Capitol Hill is the largest historic residential neighborhood in Washington DC stretching easterly in front of the United States Capitol along wide avenues. It is one of the oldest residential communities in Washington, and, with roughly 35,000 people in just under 2 square miles (5 km2), it is also one of the most densely populated.

You`re also a very short walk, bus, metro or Uber ride from a number of other neighborhoods not to be missed; including Union Market, Chinatown, Gallaudet University, and the Navy Yard.

Getting Around:
You'll be able to take advantage of everything the city has to offer! Guests can be on the steps of the United States Capitol in 24 minutes, there is a convnient bus stop located 2 minutes on foot from the apartment. 

The closest metro is Stadium Armory Metro (Orange, Silver & Blue lines). Guests can walk there in under 5 minutes, and from there you can traverse the Nation`s Capitol with ease and speed! 

The Potomac Avenue Metro station (Orange, Silver & Blue lines) is a 15 minute stroll away. 

Prefer something more active Several Capital Bikeshares are located short strolls away; they offer bike rentals by the hour at excellent rates - a truly awesome way to explore the city, the Potomac Tow Path, the Anacostia Waterfront, and nearby Virginia and Maryland!  Cultivate a cinematic experience and bike to the National Mall in 15 minutes!

Walk to the lively Eastern Market / Barracks Road neighborhood in just 20 minutes - guests will have no shortage of things to buy, see, and eat! Grocery stores, pharmacy and every other essential are just a few minutes walk from the home.

Other Things to Note:
We want you to make the most of your stay, so we've partnered with DC’s city tour company See DC Today to help ensure an amazing visit, at the best rate possible! Sit back and relax as the finest, most highly-trained and knowledgeable guides take you through the city, to soak up the surrounding history.

    Review of My Stay I recently stayed at this unit for 9 days, and it was truly an exceptional experience. The location is incredibly convenient, being very close to the metro, which made getting around Washington D.C. a breeze. The service provided by the Home Sweet City Team was outstanding. On my first night, I encountered an issue with the heating. I reported the problem, and despite the late hour, they promptly sent over two heaters, allowing me to stay comfortably. The next day, a mechanic arrived and quickly fixed the heater. The response time was impressive, and every interaction with the team was marked by kindness and professionalism. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone visiting Washington D.C. You won’t be disappointed!

    Next to Metro station that you must use to go a market or restaurant none around property. Place was clean inside but when it rains water sits in front of entrance, mosquitoes abound. Kitchen well equipped except toaster. No human contact or info other than extensive automated emails. Sofa bed needs updating. WiFi spotty. Washer & dryer excellent. Noise from upstairs. Overall OK

    Apartment clean, great location. The size of the apartment way smaller than expected. We had to use the expandable sofa bed in the living room and there was almost no room left. Very disappointed with the Check-in process. The company that manages the property have asked initially to receive a selfie from me with my id and credit card. It was only after I’ve reached out directly to Vrbo customer service when they were ok with me sending just a copy of my id and the credit card. The thing with the selfie made me feel very uncomfortable to the point where I was almost ready to cancel the reservation.

    Bathroom sink had low water pressure but was fixed after two days. Both AC units need repairs. The one in the bedroom was so noisy it affected our sleep. They were checked and parts were ordered but it affected our comfort obviously. Management was responsive when issues were reported.

    The apartment is very nice-easy access, very nice layout, quiet neighborhood which is close to a metro stop. It was also nice to have a fully stocked kitchen and complimentary personal products-shampoo, body wash, lotions.Good place to start in DC.

    It was a clean, comfortable, newly updated basement unit. The neighborhood and street were very quiet. Large, well-equipped kitchen. Very close to both the metro and bus (96). The biggest negative is that there is no unrestricted parking during the week; 20 minute walk to park the car. Communication, while frequent and responsive, wasn't consistent.

    Enjoyed my stay in this immaculate, adorable VRBO. Minutes from the Stadium Armory metro making it convenient to get anywhere in the DC area. The apartment was quiet, comfortable and had everyone one could need. Would definitely return!

    We enjoyed our stay at this property and would happily return! It was so close to the metro in a quiet neighborhood and it was easy to get anywhere we wanted for sightseeing. The kitchen had everything we needed to enjoy breakfasts and a dinner. The Safeway store is a short walk and there are also a couple restaurants and a great bakery nearby.

    This lovely apartment is 2 minutes from the Subway, making a tourist visit very easy if you are not driving a car. Well kept, clean, and exactly as described in the listing. We would likely stay again when we return to DC!

    It was a cute little place, a little bit far from city center & George Town but the metro was close which made it easier. No free parking had to find our own.

    Résultat de la traduction The apartment was very good for us. Very true to the description and pictures. The proximity to the metro (super efficient) and grocery store adds a plus to the location. Communication with the host is super easy and efficient. Nothing to complain about.

    It was the perfect rental for my family vacation. Size, facitly and ammenities were spot on. However, a major dissapoint was the fact that the shower only had about 5 or less of hot water. Every time theshower was used, the hot water would go out. It issue was communicated several times and we were assured that it would be resolved but it never was. On our final night stay, there was no hot water at all.
