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.

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
This charming apartment was located in a cute and quiet neighborhood that was located within walking distance of the metro. Everything was very clean and well stocked. We appreciated the extras that were provided from the tea to toiletries. The bathroom storage was limited, but otherwise everything was fantatic. Would highly recommend.
This condo was perfect for my brother and I to share. Every inch of this small space was used well and we were very comfortable. The location walking distance from a lot of great restaurants and parking was easy.
This location was great for exploring capitol hill on foot. Loved it. Owner was very responsive. Thanks!
We were in DC for a long weekend and enjoyed our stay. Apartment was clean and had all we needed.
We stayed for two days in a family trip. The house is located in a lovely neighborhood with easy access to transit. It’s a bit far from the nearest grocery shop since we didn’t drive. The room is clean and well organized. Check/in was very easy. Kitchen appliances were well maintained. The bathroom is surely a bit small to use. The sink is very shallow and we had to leave our toothbrush and skincare products outside of the bathroom. One week before our stay I have communicated with the manager and asked if we could get a hot water kettle for making tea. We never got the reply on if it would be provided. And of course there wasn’t a kettle during our stay. So I would recommend better communication. Overall it is a nice location and clean house to stay.
Great all round accommodation!
This property was clean, convenient, and easy to get to. I will be back for sure!
Just as advertised. Very clean and cozy basement. The only drawback was the squeaky floors above the bedroom when the upstairs residents walked. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.
Great communication from host! Property was clean and updated and well stocked with all we needed. Location was close and convenient to metro. It was a cozy home away from home!
This basement apartment was perfect for a quick getaway to explore the city. The access to the metro was excellent and it was a clean and quiet neighborhood.
Overall a great stay. Clean space, close to metro - so easy to get into the capitol.
Giving a five star review was the easiest thing I've done in a while. We were very comfortable and couldn't be happier about the location. The hosts were extremely attentive. They even checked in on us while we were there. Everything was as advertised. The apartment was super clean, new, sparkling and bright. The kitchen was very well stocked with all equipment needed too cook. All amenities we needed were at our fingertips, and the check-in process was seamless. Professionally managed every step of the way.
Location was perfect for us as we were visiting family on the next street. Key features: quiet , comfortable bed, well equipped kitchen, Keurig coffee, easy check-in
Everything was as described, or better. Located in a quiet residential neighborhood and very close to the Stadium Armory Metro. Check-In / Check-Out instructions were clearly documented.
I had a great experience
