About this property

Large studio close to metro in Eckington/Shaw

This private Studio apt is located in the heart of DC, close to everything DC has to offer, we are short 7-10min walk to the metro station and a 5min walk to over 10 restaurants within the area. It's a great spot for someone who just wants to enjoy the city for a few days. The unit is very warm and cozy and has a great gem of an outdoor space for enjoying the sites and sounds of the city. There is only street parking, however, you can park on either side of the street without restriction. The unit has a half kitchen, no stove but has a microwave and toaster oven for use. It has one full bath with a shower. Just 4 blocks from the Shaw/Howard U. Metro, this modern English basement apt., with high ceilings is a walkable spot to a gourmet grocery store, bars, restaurants, the Convention Center, and Chinatown. The home has exposed brick, just 5 metro stops to the White House, the Mall, and museums. The Shaw neighborhood is vibrant, constantly changing, and full of diversity and young people. 15 mins to Washington Hospital Center, Howard University Hospital, Children's Hospital, and VA Hospital Center. A great value with an experienced & DC-licensed host! I try to say hello at least once during the visit. In general, I give guests privacy unless there is a question. SLEEPS A MAXIMUM OF 2 ADULTS. Please feel free to ask questions.

Excellent place to stay, and Roydell was really personable and helpful, even offering to loan me an umbrella! The apartment is ideal for 1 or 2 people, with all the essentials and little extras like water and snacks. The neighborhood is nice, with many restaurants nearby. I’m looking for opportunities to stay here again as soon as possible. Love this place!

This property was more than I had even expected. The property is so so cute, got to meet the owner who helped with navigating DC and guiding us to the subway which was a way better way to travel to the monuments! Inside was cozy and extremely clean. There is a cute patio out back. There was a keurig for my caffeine addition which was a bonus. If we plan another DC trip, this will 100% be our stay over location.

This is an excellent place to stay. Close enough to Washington DC without being in the middle. Close to both airports (we flew into one and out of the other). Roydell was friendly, informative and very easy to deal with. The property was immaculate. Lovely comfortable bed. Well equipped kitchen. The Bathroom was the cleanest I've seen in a Vrbo property. I would definately stay here again and recommend it to everyone.
The lovely table for eating at
These comfy chairs swivel and were great for reading, planning the day and watching TV
TV is on a swivel arm so can be watched from the bed or the chairs
Little shelving area with really useful leaflets - we used the map every morning.

Great little place for a short stay!

For never had been to DC before, I have to say we hit the jackpot with this VRBO. Located perfectly out of the way of the hustle of the city but close enough to Uber or rent a car to enjoy what the city has to offer.
