About this property

Upscale & Spacious in Capitol Hill!

Summary:
Just 0.3 miles from the hustle and bustle of Union Station, our stunningly restored English basement feels like an oasis from the city. Fabulous floor plan, beautiful brickwork & luxury furnishings make for a stress free vacation in the heart of DC!

The Space:
Our spacious English basement apartment can comfortably sleep six guests in two bedrooms. The master bedroom has a darling button tufted queen sized bed, and there is a queen in the second bedroom (complete with a charming bay window)! There is a queen sized sofa bed in the living area for an additional two guests.

Topped off with all modern amenities and our stunning "farmhouse style" kitchen; guests can cook for two or twenty and enjoy the apartment's interactive layout.

While we can’t guarantee parking, some guests have had luck getting temporary permits from neighboring police stations. Guests would need to bring their trip itinerary with their full name, dates of stay, and street address of the residence.
This is at the discretion of the police stations however, and cannot be guaranteed.
We also provide excellent resources and coupon codes for finding nearby garages at the cheapest rates.

Guest Access:
The unit is not shared. Guests will have access to the entire home along with their own entrance.

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:
Just outside of your door lies the vibrant Capitol Hill neighborhood! Congress Market, Union Kitchen Grocery and more are a short stroll from the residence, including the iconic Eastern Market (not to be missed)!

TONS of DC's most sought after restaurants line the streets - ranging from German, Mexican, French and American - picky eaters should have no issue finding favorites. The neighborhood comes alive at night! With an array of bars, clubs and restaurants, folks can experience the the neighborhood in a totally different light once the sun goes down!
The home is nestled on a quiet tree lined street; so escaping the hustle and bustle of the H St Corridor is a non-issue.
We provide a welcome pack inside the home with our recommendations as well.

Getting Around:
WALK to the United States Capitol in less then 15 minutes! Just two blocks up Massachusetts Ave is DC's hub of activity, Union Station, where you can catch the Red Line Metro. There lay the major sights as well as tons of shops, restaurants and more. Downtown DC is a short metro ride away, be on the White House lawn in 20 minutes!

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.
Feel free to give us a call to find out about the discounted rates we have secured for Home Sweet City's guests.

Interaction with Guests:
We are always available for any questions or issues that may arise during your stay.

Thank you all for everything.
Thank you all for everything. We would happily rent from you all again. And thanks again for finding this place to stay so quickly after our initial rental fell through. The bus stop & Capitol Hill Supermarket right across the street made things super convenient.... and the late-night restaurants one street over made us feel safe walking at night. There was lots of activity, but it was quiet when inside the unit. It was the best of both worlds. You were a delight to rent from & you were very responsive on the occasions I reached out. Kerstin was proactive in reaching out to us by email when we landed so we knew what time we could check in. Lara was very helpful to us when initially booking and in emailing during our stay. And we know Alex was helpful in taking care of any concerns we had in the background (even though we didn't talk, we knew he stopped by to take care of the trash when we were out).

Wonderful location
Wonderful location, easy access to Union Station and all the sights. Bathroom is small but sufficient for our family of 3. Might be tough with more people. Beautifully furnished/appointed and beds were super comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.
