About this property
Delightful 1 bdrm/2 bed in center of Capitol Hill.
You’re going to love our bright and cozy 1-bedroom English Basement, in a 100+-year-old rowhouse at the center of historic Capitol Hill.
Everything you want to see/do is close by, and our neighborhood offers plenty of restaurants/bars for your recovery. Walk everywhere, take the bus around the corner, walk 15 minutes to the Red or Orange/Silver/Blue lines, or grab a bike at the bikeshare.
The unit has everything you need to enjoy your time in DC--just bring a good pair of walking shoes. Coming for work? You're a 10-minute walk to the Capitol.
***
YOUR APARTMENT
The apartment features a Queen size bed, and a surprisingly comfy Urban Essentials Queen size sofa. Fast internet and a desk is there if you need to do some work. We also have YouTube TV, Amazon Prime, and Netflix on the TV.
The kitchen has a microwave, 2-burner hot plate, toaster, and coffee maker/Keurig. (Just no oven, so if you’re planning a big dinner it might be a problem--I mean, who wants to cook a full meal when you’re in DC?)
You will have your own private access just 3 steps down from the street, with your own electronic code for keyless entry.
***
KIDS
We like 'em. We haven't toddler-proofed the apartment, but if there is anything you need we will try to help. Capitol Hill is a family area, and we have several parks just a short walk away.
***
THE NEIGHBORHOOD
For coffee/breakfast, Jacob’s Coffee is just a block away and you can walk to H Street NE, Eastern Market, or 8th St SE (Barracks Row) for a relaxing night out; all are walkable.
You will find Eastern Market a delightful place to see the less-touristy part of DC, mingling with the locals on weekends to browse the flea market or visit the historic indoor market. Evening walks around the Capitol and down the Mall truly are wonderful.
Street parking is available/free if you’re driving (we will give you a 24/7 pass)—or use Uber/Lyft to let someone else do the driving.
***
MEENA AND JON
As hosts, we are here for you. If you need something to make your trip easier or just some advice about the town (you gotta do the Library of Congress). We are glad to help. At the same time, the place is yours, and we’re not going to bug you if you're working, or just want privacy.
***
COMING EARLY/STAYING LATE?
If we can, we will accommodate you, though we are regularly booked and that will limit options. However, if you're coming in early or staying late, we are happy to keep your luggage in our home (upstairs).

Check-out instructions
The host requires you complete the following before checking out:
We are happy to hold your bags upstairs if you are staying in town after the 10 am checkout. But please let us know ASAP so we can make arrangements to be here.
Please don't do any chores. No need to strip beds/do dishes, or anything. Getaway day can be stressful, you're our guest, and you don't need to worry about the little stuff.
Please let us know the night before your planned departure time-- it helps the cleaning folks juggle their day. And please send us a note when you check out so I can give them the go-ahead.
Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host.
