This was an amazing stay for my surprise proposal and Washington DC. Everything was walkable or within a small car ride or Uber. Everything was clean and nice when I arrived during my stay the vibe of the house was intimate and rememberable.

When we arrived, it was late at night, so we didn’t notice the sign about street cleaning. Unfortunately, we ended up with a ticket on the very first morning of our trip. On top of that, we had a big issue with flies. We even bought spray, but it didn’t help—they were everywhere. This was especially inconvenient since we had an infant with us. The place itself was very clean, but having flies all around made the experience uncomfortable and unpleasant.

Everything was perfect! The host was fantastic – very helpful, responsive, and made sure our stay was smooth. The apartment is in a great location in Washington, D.C., and parking was easy to arrange following the host’s clear instructions.
We truly appreciated the host’s top-level support and hospitality. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the city!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Stay in DC!
This Airbnb was absolutely perfect for my trip to Washington, DC. The place was spotless & had that “brand new” feel and smell the moment I walked in. It’s beautifully decorated, with modern finishes, a super comfortable bed, and a cozy vibe throughout.
There was a very small issue with the sofa bed linens when I arrived, but the host addressed it immediately and had it replaced the very next day. I truly appreciated the quick response and the attention to detail—it showed great hospitality.
The kitchen was fully equipped, the bathroom was sparkling clean, and the entire space felt like a stylish home away from home. I loved the little — patio area and how quiet the neighborhood was ideal for relaxing after a day in the city.
The location was also a huge plus—just 1.7 miles from the Capitol, so it was easy to get around without hassle. On top of that, the host was incredibly responsive and helpful, taking care of even small requests in no time.
Will stay

Positive:
The location was excellent. Less than half a mile from where I was working and also close to some great restaurants which were in walking distance. Always nice when you don’t have to drive too far in DC or worry about parking. It was very clean and well kept. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful apartment, convenient location. Close to the metro, restaurants, grocery. if you’re bringing a vehicle, the dedicated parking is essential! Walkable to the convention center. The HSC team was very communicative and accessible around the stay.
The routine noise from upstairs was minimal and didn’t bother me. There’s actually quite a bit of noise within the apartment (loud refrigerator, loud water heater when it’s active). For anyone planning to use the sofa bed, make sure they can sleep through it.
Overall, still a 5 star stay for me!

Great area, easily walkable, some noises from upstairs but quiet at night. Updated kitchen, king bed, speaker in bathroom which was fun, overall a great experience.

We like everything about the place. I love Airbnbs that are real home that is listed, not places bought specifically for business. Makes our stay better. Even the toiletries, coffee, etc are great. Everything is there to make the guests feel welcomed. Our stay was perfect. The location is superb. It’s in the center of everything.

The apartment was much larger than we expected.

Cleanest, most well stocked air BnB I have ever stayed in. Communication with hosts was extremely fast and helpful. The only reason the location was not 5 stars was the neighborhood. Walking to the Giant grocery store you had to fend off a lot of panhandlers. However the street and actual building were very quiet. It is near a hospital so you will hear the occasional faint siren but you could barely hear that. The only reason the value got 4 not 5 stars was because you can longer see the breakdown of charges on air BnB so who knows how much we were paying for what. I would highly recommend staying at this location.

Wonderful basement apartment. Clean and easily located. Location is within a quick 3-minute walk to Shaw restaurants and metro station, great for exploring DC. Zone 2 parking included, easy to find parking spot near the place. Ceilings are a bit low, which is expected. Kitchen with necessities. Bathroom with toiletries provided and a shower light/fan with the ability to play music and have either blue/orange lighting. The bed is comfortable, great sleep. Overall, no complaints/concerns.

This was our first time in DC and we picked the best Airbnb! The location was great – we could walk to the grocery store & great restaurants plus it was only a 10 min walk to the convention center where we had some events to attend. Uber rides to various parts of DC where around $12-$18 and one day we even rode city bikes back to the place. It was clean & comfortable! Had everything thing we needed to make our nearly week long stay enjoyable.

Charming, right size, and convenient to all things; located in a beautiful, historic, cultural, and peaceful area in DC. This got a five star rating from us for so many reasons! This cute and modern basement apartment is exactly as the photos show. It was pristine and even complete with a bottle of Prosecco to toast our arrival (nice detail Home Sweet City!). It was the perfect size for our family of 4 with two tween boys. Our bed was very comfortable, plenty of soft pillows and linens and the pull out worked great for the kiddos. Kitchen is awesome. We had our days packed with all things DC to experience, and this place is located only a couple blocks from the Shaw-Howard station, which made getting around the city easy and fun. Clear proactive communication by Home Sweet City, made the stay even better. Pay close attention to parking instructions-we are not big city people and missed the street sweeping day- resulting in a ticket-other than that parking was easy. Would stay again!

Overall they did a wonderful job explaining the space in great detail. I love how clean and fresh it smelled when we entered. I love the immediate response and communication. I do have one suggestion, a reminder message sent the night of the street sweeping would be nice for out of town guests that may not be familiar with the parking rules. Unfortunately we got a ticket. We also were victims of a mass street tire slashing. This was not the host fault at all and several neighbors were affected and surprised it happened. The neighbors were friendly and called the police to take a report for us and the police response was prompt. The host allowed us to stay an extra hour to deal with the matter of the tire slashing. We definitely got a city experience and if we ever return we would still want to stay here. The location is ideal, the neighbors were kind, communication with the host was great, my number one priority is always cleanliness and it looked and smelled CLEAN!!!

We chose this place because it was close to the National Mall. The place was easy to find. The initial instructions were clear and check in was a breeze. Communication was mostly good until we asked for more toilet paper. We paid for 5 nights and was only given the last of one roll and one extra roll. On the 3rd day when we asked for more toilet paper (for 4 guests), we were advised to not use toilet paper excessively. I found that very rude and petty. After I responded, someone else responded back and said they would bring toilet paper and kleenex but never brought the kleenex. Another problem we encountered was during checkout. The google doc that was initially sent said we would not have to take out the trash. Then after we left (we left a day early), we got another message saying we had to take out the trash or we would be charged extra. After I messaged them twice about it, they finally responded and said it was fine. Change of policy is not okay.

The apartment was cute and cozy. It was perfect for myself and my teenage daughter. We were in DC for a volleyball tournament. It was about a 15 minute walk to the convention center.
It was nice that the kitchen had everything we needed to cook and prep meals for the day. (There is also a Giants grocery store nearby)
At times I was able to walk back to the apartment in between matches to get away from the loud, crowded courts.
The bed, pillows and comforters were so comfortable! Great for an athlete needing a good nights sleep.
Parking on the street was a little challenging but I think that was because it was a holiday weekend.
Overall a great experience and would highly recommend!

This was a great place to stay with easy parking. Uber was my choice of travel, but the metro and bus were around the corner. The upper stairs residents were quiet and respectful. I definitely would recommend this place.

A very nice spot in a perfect location! The space is nicely updated to make it feel stylish yet comfortable. Everything was thoughtfully designed, and it has all the amenities you need for a great stay.
The location couldn’t have been better—such a cool neighborhood with amazing restaurants, coffee shops, and easy access to everything in DC. It felt safe and walkable, making it the perfect home base.
Since this is a basement apartment, I was initially a bit concerned about noise levels, but it was never an issue. While I could occasionally hear sounds from upstairs, it was never too loud or disruptive. Anyone who’s ever lived in an apartment with upstairs neighbors won’t have issues here.
The host was great—responsive and covered everything I need to know, which made the experience even better. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting DC!

This was a perfect 3-night stay for my wife and I visiting DC for the first time! We were on our baby moon so it was essential for us to be in a a centralized location. The apartment was extremely clean, communication was consistent as we needed, and could not recommend staying here for couples/small families.

It was perfect for our family of four. Great location only 5 minutes walk from a Green line metro station and easy access to all the major sites in DC with no car needed. Less than 10 minutes walk to a large supermarket. The apartment was spacious, clean, and quiet with a very comfortable bed in the bedroom. The kitchen has everything you need to make basic meals. We saved a lot of money eating both breakfast and dinner in during our trip. Would definitely stay here again.

There was a loud noise coming from the HVAC system (located right in the basement level apartment behind a closet door) that was very disturbing. It went on almost every hour, made it hard for us to sleep at night. At first they came to check and said they fixed the problem. Then it kept happening and they said there is nothing that can be done. I liked the place but this was definitely a disturbance.

I really enjoyed my stay here – the AirBnB was beautiful and comfortable. It has all the essentials, was super clean, and I really enjoyed the complimentary tea! The parking made all the difference as well and its pretty centrally located so you can get anywhere you need to go via driving or the metro. The ONLY reason that I’ve given it four stars is because of the construction next door 6 days a week which woke me up in the mornings but that’s beyond the control of the owners or Home Sweet City and I’m sure its less than ideal for them as well. Overall, it was a great stay and highly recommend. I’d love to stay again!

I loved the space. Close to Downtown and metro.
Nice community. Felt safe walking late at night.
The unit was very clean and spacious. I will say that being 6’5 the ceiling was my only issue but most basements are and I would definitely stay again. The host was very responsive and available.

The owner was very nice. There was only 2 rolls of tissue and there were 4 girls so feel free to do the math. We had neighbors say we were loud but I’ve never had a complaint before so we were unsure of what the complaint was for. The space was nice but there were rats in the neighborhood which did scare us alittle. I know that is not the owners fault. In all the space was nice and convenient.

Came to town for a wedding and to do some sightseeing. The DC Metro is close by and a grocery store is just three blocks away. Communication was great and the place was clean, modern and well decorated. The bed was very comfortable and the space had everything we needed. We happened to meet the owner on a couple of occasions and he was very cordial and polite. For any future visits to Washington, we would definitely stay there again.

The location of this rental is great. Groceries, dining, and metro stations are all an easy walk away. The street itself is quiet, and parking isn’t a problem (although we did have to walk a bit if we parked after 5-6ish). All necessary amenities were well stocked in the unit, and hosts were great about communication. The downside for us was the cleanliness upon arrival. We were very disappointed by the dirtiness. However, to be totally transparent, we do have toddlers in tow which makes us very critical. We did let the hosts know about the condition of the place, and were very grateful for their efforts in amending the situation. There was no taking back our first impression, but we truly felt as though they did the best they could with the feedback we gave them, and that the situation was probably a fluke.

2024.06.02
Great Place, I give it a 5 star. Walkable to a few restaurants and bars. The only issue we experience with renting this place is getting the parking pass. if you rent a car for DC, you can’t get the parking pass until you have the car details like the license plate #. We had to go to a UPS store to get the pass printed. We didn’t like this process.

Nous avons beaucoup aimé notre expérience.
L’appartement était tel que décrit en mots et en photos. Il fût facile à trouver, propre et avec les commodités nécessaires. Réponse rapide lorsque nous avons eu des questionnements.
Nous avons adoré nous promener dans le quartier qui etait totalement sécuritaire à mon avis et jaser avec des voisins. Situer à environ 40 minutes du capitole à la marche, c’était parfait.
Le seul bémol est peut-être le bruit du système de ventilation dans l’appartement, mais la bouteille de bulles offerte à notre arrivé nous a fait oublier le tout !!!
J’y retournerais sans hésitation 🙂

My partner and I enjoyed our stay!! The listing was very convenient to the metro and on good weather days if you don’t mind walking, there’s many things nearby as far as eateries, bars, shops, etc. Most days we walked to the monuments! Check-in was very easy, host was extremely communicative. The apartment was spotless and matched the description/pictures! My favorite was the openness between the kitchen and living room, it allowed the place to be inviting! They even supply their own roast for coffee/tea and complementary bottle of champagne which I loved! Also, having washer/dryer and being supplied with laundry detergent pods was convenient for not bringing back home dirty laundry. Definitely will be recommending their listing to family and friends and hope to return back soon. Thank you!!!

The living space was beautifully furnished, blending modern amenities with a touch of classic elegance. The kitchen was fully equipped, perfect for those nights when I wanted to cook a meal instead of dining out. The bedroom was a serene retreat – the bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night’s sleep after a day of exploring the city.
What truly set this place apart was its location. It was just a short walk to some of D.C.’s most iconic landmarks – the White House, the National Mall, and numerous museums and galleries. Plus, the neighborhood was vibrant, filled with great restaurants, cafes, and shops.
The host was exceptional – friendly, accommodating, and always available to answer any questions or offer local tips. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring a comfortable stay was evident throughout.

a perfect place to stay with family or a group of friends, the metro is very close by (under 5 minutes walking), the location is perfect in the middle so it is easy to go around dc and visit all the amazing places. we feel safe walking around the neighbourhood especially at night. The host, Michelle is very responsive and gives clear instructions, the place is clean and has everything we need. will surely stay here again when i visit DC. last but not least, they provide really good tea! Thank you Home Sweet City, for making our stay very enjoyable and making us feel like home in your place

We loved our stay here. It was close to the metro so we could easily go back and forth to DC to see the sites. The area was also great! We ate at the Beer Garden that was just down the street and the coffee shops offered a good starting point in the morning. The bnb was adorable with great amenities. It was very clean and stylish much better than a hotel stay. Highly recommend!!

Great stay for family of four with elementary-aged kids. 15 minute Uber or public transport to most locations near the national mall. Walkable to decent restaurants. Quiet. Lovely space and super clean. Very comfortable beds. Easy to get the parking pass online and ample parking available right by the apartment. Friendly and responsive hosts.

This is a newly remodeled basement apartment with many modern touches. Full kitchen, well lit apartment and a very comfortable bed. Quick and easy walking distance to D.C.’s excellent Metro system gets you down to the National Mall in minutes. A bottle of bubbly was waiting for us when we arrived! The only problem we had is that the alarm went off as soon as we got inside the door. While the owner had given us the code, I couldn’t get to it fast enough and we had a visit by the police.

We had a wonderful stay here! The location is excellent and very walkable. We were able to easily walk to our conference at the Convention Center, to restaurants, and to all the main tourist sites in DC. It was very quiet and felt very private as well. The hosts were extremely responsive and helpful and the space was very clean and well-maintained. We definitely had a wonderful time here and would stay here again. Thank you for a great trip to DC!!

I had a nice stay here. The place is spacious and clean. The host is always willing to accommodate guests whether it’s check out time or additional amenities. The location is also walkable to Howard and convenient to Uber to U Street. I would love to stay again.
Only two issues at this place. The mosquitoes are VICIOUS. Please be advised that you will be but if you stay outside for a few minutes- I’m still recovering. So, if you’re not a fan of bugs, this might not be the place for you. Second issue is the alarm system. It is extremely sensitive. Make sure you enter the code as soon as possible or the authorities are likely to arrive. With that being said, you know that you’re always safe in the house.

This was an amazing stay for my surprise proposal and Washington DC. Everything was walkable or within a small car ride or Uber. Everything was clean and nice when I arrived during my stay the vibe of the house was intimate and rememberable.

When we arrived, it was late at night, so we didn’t notice the sign about street cleaning. Unfortunately, we ended up with a ticket on the very first morning of our trip. On top of that, we had a big issue with flies. We even bought spray, but it didn’t help—they were everywhere. This was especially inconvenient since we had an infant with us. The place itself was very clean, but having flies all around made the experience uncomfortable and unpleasant.

Everything was perfect! The host was fantastic – very helpful, responsive, and made sure our stay was smooth. The apartment is in a great location in Washington, D.C., and parking was easy to arrange following the host’s clear instructions.
We truly appreciated the host’s top-level support and hospitality. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the city!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Stay in DC!
This Airbnb was absolutely perfect for my trip to Washington, DC. The place was spotless & had that “brand new” feel and smell the moment I walked in. It’s beautifully decorated, with modern finishes, a super comfortable bed, and a cozy vibe throughout.
There was a very small issue with the sofa bed linens when I arrived, but the host addressed it immediately and had it replaced the very next day. I truly appreciated the quick response and the attention to detail—it showed great hospitality.
The kitchen was fully equipped, the bathroom was sparkling clean, and the entire space felt like a stylish home away from home. I loved the little — patio area and how quiet the neighborhood was ideal for relaxing after a day in the city.
The location was also a huge plus—just 1.7 miles from the Capitol, so it was easy to get around without hassle. On top of that, the host was incredibly responsive and helpful, taking care of even small requests in no time.
Will stay

Positive:
The location was excellent. Less than half a mile from where I was working and also close to some great restaurants which were in walking distance. Always nice when you don’t have to drive too far in DC or worry about parking. It was very clean and well kept. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful apartment, convenient location. Close to the metro, restaurants, grocery. if you're bringing a vehicle, the dedicated parking is essential! Walkable to the convention center. The HSC team was very communicative and accessible around the stay.
The routine noise from upstairs was minimal and didn't bother me. There's actually quite a bit of noise within the apartment (loud refrigerator, loud water heater when it's active). For anyone planning to use the sofa bed, make sure they can sleep through it.
Overall, still a 5 star stay for me!

We like everything about the place. I love Airbnbs that are real home that is listed, not places bought specifically for business. Makes our stay better. Even the toiletries, coffee, etc are great. Everything is there to make the guests feel welcomed. Our stay was perfect. The location is superb. It’s in the center of everything.

Cleanest, most well stocked air BnB I have ever stayed in. Communication with hosts was extremely fast and helpful. The only reason the location was not 5 stars was the neighborhood. Walking to the Giant grocery store you had to fend off a lot of panhandlers. However the street and actual building were very quiet. It is near a hospital so you will hear the occasional faint siren but you could barely hear that. The only reason the value got 4 not 5 stars was because you can longer see the breakdown of charges on air BnB so who knows how much we were paying for what. I would highly recommend staying at this location.

Wonderful basement apartment. Clean and easily located. Location is within a quick 3-minute walk to Shaw restaurants and metro station, great for exploring DC. Zone 2 parking included, easy to find parking spot near the place. Ceilings are a bit low, which is expected. Kitchen with necessities. Bathroom with toiletries provided and a shower light/fan with the ability to play music and have either blue/orange lighting. The bed is comfortable, great sleep. Overall, no complaints/concerns.

This was our first time in DC and we picked the best Airbnb! The location was great - we could walk to the grocery store & great restaurants plus it was only a 10 min walk to the convention center where we had some events to attend. Uber rides to various parts of DC where around $12-$18 and one day we even rode city bikes back to the place. It was clean & comfortable! Had everything thing we needed to make our nearly week long stay enjoyable.

Charming, right size, and convenient to all things; located in a beautiful, historic, cultural, and peaceful area in DC. This got a five star rating from us for so many reasons! This cute and modern basement apartment is exactly as the photos show. It was pristine and even complete with a bottle of Prosecco to toast our arrival (nice detail Home Sweet City!). It was the perfect size for our family of 4 with two tween boys. Our bed was very comfortable, plenty of soft pillows and linens and the pull out worked great for the kiddos. Kitchen is awesome. We had our days packed with all things DC to experience, and this place is located only a couple blocks from the Shaw-Howard station, which made getting around the city easy and fun. Clear proactive communication by Home Sweet City, made the stay even better. Pay close attention to parking instructions-we are not big city people and missed the street sweeping day- resulting in a ticket-other than that parking was easy. Would stay again!

Overall they did a wonderful job explaining the space in great detail. I love how clean and fresh it smelled when we entered. I love the immediate response and communication. I do have one suggestion, a reminder message sent the night of the street sweeping would be nice for out of town guests that may not be familiar with the parking rules. Unfortunately we got a ticket. We also were victims of a mass street tire slashing. This was not the host fault at all and several neighbors were affected and surprised it happened. The neighbors were friendly and called the police to take a report for us and the police response was prompt. The host allowed us to stay an extra hour to deal with the matter of the tire slashing. We definitely got a city experience and if we ever return we would still want to stay here. The location is ideal, the neighbors were kind, communication with the host was great, my number one priority is always cleanliness and it looked and smelled CLEAN!!!

We chose this place because it was close to the National Mall. The place was easy to find. The initial instructions were clear and check in was a breeze. Communication was mostly good until we asked for more toilet paper. We paid for 5 nights and was only given the last of one roll and one extra roll. On the 3rd day when we asked for more toilet paper (for 4 guests), we were advised to not use toilet paper excessively. I found that very rude and petty. After I responded, someone else responded back and said they would bring toilet paper and kleenex but never brought the kleenex. Another problem we encountered was during checkout. The google doc that was initially sent said we would not have to take out the trash. Then after we left (we left a day early), we got another message saying we had to take out the trash or we would be charged extra. After I messaged them twice about it, they finally responded and said it was fine. Change of policy is not okay.

The apartment was cute and cozy. It was perfect for myself and my teenage daughter. We were in DC for a volleyball tournament. It was about a 15 minute walk to the convention center.
It was nice that the kitchen had everything we needed to cook and prep meals for the day. (There is also a Giants grocery store nearby)
At times I was able to walk back to the apartment in between matches to get away from the loud, crowded courts.
The bed, pillows and comforters were so comfortable! Great for an athlete needing a good nights sleep.
Parking on the street was a little challenging but I think that was because it was a holiday weekend.
Overall a great experience and would highly recommend!

This was a great place to stay with easy parking. Uber was my choice of travel, but the metro and bus were around the corner. The upper stairs residents were quiet and respectful. I definitely would recommend this place.

A very nice spot in a perfect location! The space is nicely updated to make it feel stylish yet comfortable. Everything was thoughtfully designed, and it has all the amenities you need for a great stay.
The location couldn’t have been better—such a cool neighborhood with amazing restaurants, coffee shops, and easy access to everything in DC. It felt safe and walkable, making it the perfect home base.
Since this is a basement apartment, I was initially a bit concerned about noise levels, but it was never an issue. While I could occasionally hear sounds from upstairs, it was never too loud or disruptive. Anyone who’s ever lived in an apartment with upstairs neighbors won’t have issues here.
The host was great—responsive and covered everything I need to know, which made the experience even better. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting DC!

This was a perfect 3-night stay for my wife and I visiting DC for the first time! We were on our baby moon so it was essential for us to be in a a centralized location. The apartment was extremely clean, communication was consistent as we needed, and could not recommend staying here for couples/small families.

It was perfect for our family of four. Great location only 5 minutes walk from a Green line metro station and easy access to all the major sites in DC with no car needed. Less than 10 minutes walk to a large supermarket. The apartment was spacious, clean, and quiet with a very comfortable bed in the bedroom. The kitchen has everything you need to make basic meals. We saved a lot of money eating both breakfast and dinner in during our trip. Would definitely stay here again.

There was a loud noise coming from the HVAC system (located right in the basement level apartment behind a closet door) that was very disturbing. It went on almost every hour, made it hard for us to sleep at night. At first they came to check and said they fixed the problem. Then it kept happening and they said there is nothing that can be done. I liked the place but this was definitely a disturbance.

I really enjoyed my stay here - the AirBnB was beautiful and comfortable. It has all the essentials, was super clean, and I really enjoyed the complimentary tea! The parking made all the difference as well and its pretty centrally located so you can get anywhere you need to go via driving or the metro. The ONLY reason that I’ve given it four stars is because of the construction next door 6 days a week which woke me up in the mornings but that’s beyond the control of the owners or Home Sweet City and I’m sure its less than ideal for them as well. Overall, it was a great stay and highly recommend. I’d love to stay again!

The owner was very nice. There was only 2 rolls of tissue and there were 4 girls so feel free to do the math. We had neighbors say we were loud but I’ve never had a complaint before so we were unsure of what the complaint was for. The space was nice but there were rats in the neighborhood which did scare us alittle. I know that is not the owners fault. In all the space was nice and convenient.

Came to town for a wedding and to do some sightseeing. The DC Metro is close by and a grocery store is just three blocks away. Communication was great and the place was clean, modern and well decorated. The bed was very comfortable and the space had everything we needed. We happened to meet the owner on a couple of occasions and he was very cordial and polite. For any future visits to Washington, we would definitely stay there again.

The location of this rental is great. Groceries, dining, and metro stations are all an easy walk away. The street itself is quiet, and parking isn’t a problem (although we did have to walk a bit if we parked after 5-6ish). All necessary amenities were well stocked in the unit, and hosts were great about communication. The downside for us was the cleanliness upon arrival. We were very disappointed by the dirtiness. However, to be totally transparent, we do have toddlers in tow which makes us very critical. We did let the hosts know about the condition of the place, and were very grateful for their efforts in amending the situation. There was no taking back our first impression, but we truly felt as though they did the best they could with the feedback we gave them, and that the situation was probably a fluke.

2024.06.01
Great Place, I give it a 5 star. Walkable to a few restaurants and bars. The only issue we experience with renting this place is getting the parking pass. if you rent a car for DC, you can’t get the parking pass until you have the car details like the license plate #. We had to go to a UPS store to get the pass printed. We didn’t like this process.

Nous avons beaucoup aimé notre expérience.
L'appartement était tel que décrit en mots et en photos. Il fût facile à trouver, propre et avec les commodités nécessaires. Réponse rapide lorsque nous avons eu des questionnements.
Nous avons adoré nous promener dans le quartier qui etait totalement sécuritaire à mon avis et jaser avec des voisins. Situer à environ 40 minutes du capitole à la marche, c'était parfait.
Le seul bémol est peut-être le bruit du système de ventilation dans l'appartement, mais la bouteille de bulles offerte à notre arrivé nous a fait oublier le tout !!!
J'y retournerais sans hésitation 🙂

My partner and I enjoyed our stay!! The listing was very convenient to the metro and on good weather days if you don’t mind walking, there’s many things nearby as far as eateries, bars, shops, etc. Most days we walked to the monuments! Check-in was very easy, host was extremely communicative. The apartment was spotless and matched the description/pictures! My favorite was the openness between the kitchen and living room, it allowed the place to be inviting! They even supply their own roast for coffee/tea and complementary bottle of champagne which I loved! Also, having washer/dryer and being supplied with laundry detergent pods was convenient for not bringing back home dirty laundry. Definitely will be recommending their listing to family and friends and hope to return back soon. Thank you!!!

The living space was beautifully furnished, blending modern amenities with a touch of classic elegance. The kitchen was fully equipped, perfect for those nights when I wanted to cook a meal instead of dining out. The bedroom was a serene retreat - the bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night’s sleep after a day of exploring the city.
What truly set this place apart was its location. It was just a short walk to some of D.C.’s most iconic landmarks - the White House, the National Mall, and numerous museums and galleries. Plus, the neighborhood was vibrant, filled with great restaurants, cafes, and shops.
The host was exceptional - friendly, accommodating, and always available to answer any questions or offer local tips. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring a comfortable stay was evident throughout.

The host, Michelle is very responsive and gives clear instructions, the place is clean and has everything we need. will surely stay here again when i visit DC. last but not least, they provide really good tea!

We ate at the Beer Garden that was just down the street and the coffee shops offered a good starting point in the morning. The bnb was adorable with great amenities. It was very clean and stylish much better than a hotel stay. Highly recommend!!

Great stay for family of four with elementary-aged kids. 15 minute Uber or public transport to most locations near the national mall. Walkable to decent restaurants. Quiet. Lovely space and super clean. Very comfortable beds. Easy to get the parking pass online and ample parking available right by the apartment. Friendly and responsive hosts.

This is a newly remodeled basement apartment with many modern touches. Full kitchen, well lit apartment and a very comfortable bed. Quick and easy walking distance to D.C.'s excellent Metro system gets you down to the National Mall in minutes. A bottle of bubbly was waiting for us when we arrived! The only problem we had is that the alarm went off as soon as we got inside the door. While the owner had given us the code, I couldn't get to it fast enough and we had a visit by the police.

We had a wonderful stay here! The location is excellent and very walkable. We were able to easily walk to our conference at the Convention Center, to restaurants, and to all the main tourist sites in DC. It was very quiet and felt very private as well. The hosts were extremely responsive and helpful and the space was very clean and well-maintained. We definitely had a wonderful time here and would stay here again. Thank you for a great trip to DC!!

I had a nice stay here. The place is spacious and clean. The host is always willing to accommodate guests whether it’s check out time or additional amenities. The location is also walkable to Howard and convenient to Uber to U Street. I would love to stay again.
Only two issues at this place. The mosquitoes are VICIOUS. Please be advised that you will be but if you stay outside for a few minutes- I’m still recovering. So, if you’re not a fan of bugs, this might not be the place for you. Second issue is the alarm system. It is extremely sensitive. Make sure you enter the code as soon as possible or the authorities are likely to arrive. With that being said, you know that you’re always safe in the house.
Description
Unwind amid contemporary furnishings in a bright & open living space and a lively neighborhood resting just outside your door. This is a terrific, funky pad from which to explore one of D.C. coolest neighborhoods!
A parking pass is available and must be requested in advance, simply sign up, request, and print (BEFORE you travel)!
Notes
We can consider hosting dogs up to 45lbs on a case by case basis. We would insist on a “pet fee” which is 2x the cleaning fee, and ensures a deep clean and that no allergens are left behind.
Dogs haven’t been inside the apartment, but do live upstairs.

Neighborhood
The home rests on a gorgeous tree lined street, a short walk (4 minutes) from the Shaw-Howard University Station, where you have access to the yellow and green lines. There is also a convenient bus (70/79) that can take you directly to the National Mall.
The location is the epicenter of DC’s music and dining scene, always the place to be seen in D.C! Walk up the street and catch a wide range of music shows at the historic Howard Theater, or a few more blocks to the famous “9:30 Club”. A short distance in either direction takes you to the Right Proper Brew Pub, the Shaw Tavern, Bistro Boehm, Shaw Library and a bucketful of coffee houses, fitness centers and “pop-up” eating and entertainment venues.
