We have to enable "instant booking" or our listing is hidden, but this apt. is listed on several other sites and I might be in discussion with others.

You will save time and trouble if we email first to be sure my apt. is available and perfect for you.
This charming apartment is the entire 3rd floor of an historic row house in the dynamic neighborhood of Columbia Heights.
The apartment is separate and private with a door at the bottom of the stairs, but the entry is through the main house where I live. You may come and go as you please. I'm a writer & work at home.
I have two cats (and often foster kittens or dogs) in the main house. Your well-trained dog or cat is welcome with a pet-cleaning fee of $50.00 per stay.
