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).
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

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.

Location and neighborhood make this one of many reasons to stay in capital hill. You can walk to all major sites as well as restaurants and conveniences. This unit is well cared for and owners pay attention to details that matter like comfort, cleanliness and being sure your stay is delightful. Timely responses and warm welcoming communication from owners made our stay extra special. Would definitely stay again!

Jon helped us immediately we got to the apartment as we didnt read the instructions correctly on how to enter the apartment. The apartment was excellent with everything catered for. We felt extremely safe in the area with friendly neighbours. The location is ideal for those who want to visit The Mall and its attractions. Thank you Jon for a wonderful stay at your house.

The host was also kind and I was able to contact him immediately through chat. The host lived upstairs, so there might be some noise between floors, but it was okay. If I go to Washington DC, it's a good place to stay again

Nothing Better Than This!

First the owners are very easy to reach and help you with anything you need. It was private and serene. It had everything I needed. Its cultural splash of DC and reading material provided a real home feel. I even left some things and the owner mailed it to me. In these days and times, its hard to find owners who genuinely work hard to make sure your stay is comfortable. Definitely my go to when I am in DC.

Great apartment

We stayed here for a few days while visiting DC. It was exactly as listed, and Jon was so helpful with any questions we had. It’s right next to a bus stop, and less than 20 minutes for on a metro stop and lots of restaurants. There were 3 of us (two adults and a 7-year-old), and it was the perfect home base for us.

Perfect stay. The apartment was private, comfortable, clean, and a great location. The host was helpful and friendly. The kitchen was functional and practical. We slept 4 comfortably. Everywhere we wanted to go was a 20 minute walk away, so we saw all the sights. Trader Joe was also close, so we could buy food. Very practical. We’d certainly stay here again

The host Jon and Ana were wonderful. Everything in the description was accurate. Check-in and check-out was very easy. The apartment was absolutely wonderful. It had everything we could have ever needed. Jacob’s Coffee shop around the corner was a wonderful suggestion as well as Pupatella Neapolitan Pizza. There was also a rental bike station not far to help with our travel around DC. It was perfect and we very much enjoyed our stay. Would definitely stay there again! This is the best VRBO we have ever stayed at. I highly recommend it!!
