Summary:
This studio apartment is perfect for traveling families, business executives, romantic getaways, or simply those hoping to experience the city like a local, completely stress free! Sleeps 3!
A parking pass is available and must be requested in advance, simply sign up, request, and print (BEFORE you travel)!
The Space:
Nestled in a private house in the heart of the city,
Our darling studio apartment can comfortably sleep 3 guests in the queen sized bed in the common area, that pulls out to reveal a twin sized mattress; satisfying your bedding needs with a chic and comfortable sleeping option, that can be easily put away to reveal more floor space.
The apartment comes complete with a modest kitchen - which includes everything but an oven (though a full convection toaster oven is included, so those so culinarily inclined will have that at their disposal) - guests can whip up a small meal before taking on the day of adventures!
Communal area is perfect for decompressing after a day of sight-seeing; there is a TV with smart streaming capabilities, so guests can snooze to their favorite shows even at their home away from home.
Accents of classic elegance blend perfectly with the modern industrial finishings, creating a bright space to relax while nestled in a cozy english basement.
We can provide one parking pass, which allows unrestricted on street parking for the duration of your stay!
Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the entire studio apartment, you will have your own entrance and 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:
The neighborhood is teeming with amazing restaurants, lively and unique bars as well as a plethora of entertainment options -
from live music, comedy, improv, and stage plays; those interested in the arts or just looking to see something new will not be disappointed!
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:
We're smack dab in the middle of 3 convenient metro stations; you'll be able to take advantage of everything the city has to offer!
The Eastern Market (Orange, Silver & Blue lines) metro is just over 10 minutes on foot from the apartment, and the Potomac Avenue Metro station is a 9 minute stroll down 14th St. Head up Massachusetts Ave and be at the Stadium Armory Metro station in just over 10, and traverse the Nation's Capitol with ease and speed!
Prefer something more active? Most central Washington DC features are all within walking, you can walk to the United States Capitol steps in just over 25 minutes (though convenient buses + metro can take you there directly as well) . 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!
Walk to the lively Eastern Market / Barracks Road neighborhood in just 10 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.
