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!

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.

Great stay very can and close to Capitol Hill best deal I got in DC. Owners were responsive in timely fashion and very courteous. Definitely will rebook
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.

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.

Hi Michelle, We are so happy that our hosting efforts were helpful and it's lovely to know that you enjoyed our home, along with the location! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, it was a pleasure hosting you and we are looking forward to another opportunity in the future.
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 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!

Our stay in D.C. was absolutely incredible!! Everyone was so friendly with us and very communicative if we had an issue with anything. It was super close to the metro which made traveling easier for our group. Overall it was a wonderful home to come and rest after a long day of sightseeing. We will definitely be back to this Vrbo on our future trips to D.C.

The lower level suite was clean. The only issue was the bathroom faucet only trickled without hot water.
This apartment is the cleanest vacation rental we’ve ever had. It’s a two minute walk to the Metro on the silver line, which takes you right to the Smithsonian. Lovely neighborhood, perfect place!
