Our recently renovated carriage house studio is located in one of DC's best neighborhoods, just two blocks from bustling 14th Street (Logan Circle), 17th Street (Dupont Circle), and U Street. There are plenty of bars, restaurants, and stores within a couple of blocks. It's also close to downtown DC with the White House about a mile away and the National Mall close by! Our studio is the perfect location for visiting friends, sightseeing, and exploring all that DC has to offer.
There are several bus stops nearby, two separate metro/subway stations that are each about a ten-minute walk, and multiple Capital Bikeshare stations a couple of blocks in all directions.
You access the carriage house studio via the alley behind our home. You enter through the garage by entering a garage door code. The studio is on the second floor. It is one large room with a kitchenette.
The kitchenette has a mini-fridge with freezer, microwave, hot plate, Keurig, and drip coffee maker. The studio itself has several windows, A/C, heat, a ceiling fan, ample closet space, and a combo washer & dryer. The full bathroom is in a separate room.
Please note that the studio has a steeper than normal staircase to enter and exit. The stairwell has a handrail and is well lit. The backyard courtyard cannot be used.

Best vrbo stay I’ve ever had! Really appreciated every attention to detail and the communication! Thank you for such a fabulous stay in a convenient, clean, quiet location!! Hope to be back soon with my husband
Amazing spot! Exactly as described, very clean and had everything you would need. Very nice hosts who were easy to communicate with. Perfect spot to access public transit and plenty of places to eat in the area including a Trader Joe’s about 5 min walking distance for when you want to eat-in. Will definitely stay again if ever in the area in the future.
We loved our stay in this open loft space! We were in town to pray with the monks, and this space was perfect and cozy for my husband and I. Alexander was a lovely host; warm, inviting, and communicative to ensure we were able to get the most of our experience. The location, and nearby restaurants were such an added bonus. What a great getaway. Hope to see y'all again!
Great spot. Very quiet and private. Updated facilities with tasteful updated and functional amenities. The hosts are communicative and responsive. Within walking distance from Convention center, restaurants and stores. Would stay there again in a heartbeat.
We love this place. This is the second time we've stayed here. The studio is very comfortable and has everything we need. It's in the perfect location for getting the best of the U St. and Logan Circle areas. Alexander is a great host – very responsive and good communications.
Once we got in it was just as advertised and we enjoyed our stay. We had trouble getting into the Garage but I asked the host for help, he went with us to open it, and we had no further problems. There is coffee in the room and a Keurig. My only suggestion is that they also provide cream -- a small bottle or box in the fridge.
I’ve stayed at a lot of VRBO locations and I have to say that this was one of my favorites. So clean, perfect location, comfortable bed, the Host was extremely nice and helpful. 10/10 would recommend!
We had a wonderful stay in a great neighborhood. Very clean studio with everything we needed!

This is an absolute gem of a property, a private studio within walking distance of all the sights, downtown and great restaurants. I hope I can stay here if I go to DC again.
Great small place to stay while visiting friends nearby! The space operates exactly as the instructions indicated, and the AC worked really well even on the very warm and humid days! Nice kitchen with a fair amount of dishes and kitchenware if needed, and very good water pressure in the shower. I usually need to sleep in a very dark room, but at least in early October, I didn't find that the sun coming in the skylights in the morning was intrusive at all.
Overall we had a really nice stay. The bed was cozy and the room was very clean. The area was great.My only comment is that at night the room has a lot of street lights shining into the room and moonlight from the skylights. Perhaps curtains could help keep the room darker.
We enjoyed the stay at this studio. It’s a close walk to a lot of restaurants, things to do. Parking on street was very easy. Check in was simple. Communication friendly and helpful. Space was clean. The bed is very comfortable. Would definitely stay again.
