Bloomingdale Beauty - Sleeps 4 in Style!

Summary:
Our stunning apartment is the perfect anchor to your adventures in the District! Just 2 miles from the White House, with convenient metro access; guests can explore the city on foot & enjoy the history (and amazing restaurants) right outside.

The Space:
Your search for where to stay in DC for business or pleasure stops here! Nestled amongst Bloomingdale`s iconic historic rowhomes (alongside some amazing restaurants, cafes and bars), you will find our spacious, renovated two-bedroom lower level apartment brimming with old world charm & modern amenities.

The apartment has excellent WiFi, a laptop friendly workspace, a large smart TV (allows streaming and access to personal Netflix, HuluPlus, Amazon Prime, HBO Go accounts, and more).

The kitchen includes all updated appliances and amenities needed to allow you to start the day or enjoy a relaxing meal in the evening.  A huge island is a perfect place to work, chat, or wind down while dinner is being prepared. 

We can comfortably sleep 4 guests in 1 queen bed and 1 full bed; one in each bedroom. The Master bedroom is spacious and has a beautifully preserved fireplace.

Whether you`re here for a day or a month, for business or pleasure; you will truly be able to relax in this bright and airy retreat situated RIGHT in the heart of our Nation`s Capital.

You will hear a child at play, and a newborn in the house above you, neighborhood dogs barking, BBQs, buses, and the occasional siren, as this is an urban area. The upstairs tenants maintain quiet hours from 10 pm to 7am (though you may still hear footsteps). They will be conscious of noise during other hours, and we ask guests to do the same!

~ White noise machines are provided in all of the rooms to help block out any ambient noise.

Also note that the space is NOT a good fit for parties, or groups who plan to go out on the town until late. We are a rowhouse, with shared walls on both sides and lots of neighbors. There are children living upstairs who get up pretty early, including on the weekends.

Guest Access:
Guests have this entire 2-bedroom apartment to themselves and will be sent access to unlock the private entrance door prior to check-in.

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:
Bloomingdale / Shaw neighborhood is a trendy neighborhood, popular with families and the younger DC crowd. It`s residential, but has great access to downtown. If you want to stay in the neighborhood, stroll a few blocks down the magnificent tree-lined streets to find neighborhood favorites like Red Hen, Bacio Pizzeria, Big Bear Cafe, Showtime, The Royal, and so much more! Pop down to Yoga District for your daily workout, the (secret...shhh!) Crispus Attucks Park for a picnic, or head over to Sylvan Cafe for coffee and a quick treat. And there are many more great food options in the NoMA / Gallaudet and Bloomingdale neighborhoods. We provide a property guide stock full of our local favorites!

Getting Around:
No need for a car at this location! Both the NoMa-Gallaudet U Metro Station (red line) and the Shaw / Howard University Station (yellow and green lines) are a short, 15 minute walk from the home. Buses are plentiful in the area and you can catch 5 different bus lines within 4 blocks of the house. For those looking for something more active, guests can WALK to the White House, Smithsonian Museums, and so much more in just over half an hour. DC National Airport is a short 20 minute ride/uber from the home.
