Extremely bright English Basement with great walkability right in the heart of Shaw. 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom. Full kitchen.

A parking pass is available and must be requested in advance, simply sign up, request, and print (BEFORE you travel)!

The Space:
This lovely apartment underwent a top-to-bottom renovation in 2015 and perfectly blends the historic neighborhood with modern living. We can comfortably sleep six adults in 2 bedrooms, one with a queen bed, one a full bed, and a sofa bed in the living area for additional sleeping. Beautiful bathroom.

There is a family living upstairs. Please note that the everyday sounds and noises of family life (footsteps, stairs, kids playing, etc.) can be heard in both directions. You will undoubtedly hear them (and they will hear you) as they go about their everyday life.

The Neighborhood:
The home rests on a gorgeous tree lined street, a short block and a half walk from the U St/African-Amer Civil War Memorial/Cardozo Metro Station where you have access to the yellow and green lines. There is also a convenient bus (96) that can take you directly to the National Mall.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Don’t let “basement” location sway you! Does NOT feel like a basement. Brand new, clean & surprisingly comfortable enough for 4 people, but can accommodate 5 need be with sofa bed. GREAT location near downtown on a cool looking street of row houses. Parking permit included & was never an issue parking in front. We’ll definitely be back!

Comfortable Stay

Convenient location! Metro station/bus stop was one block away, there’s a Trader Joe’s 10min away, and overall felt very safe in the area. The apartment was very clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed to make a quick meal. Property manager was very easy to get a hold of and responded in a timely manner. I didn’t spend much time in the apartment, I was only there at night but it was a nice place to come back to after a long busy day.

Awesome stay

We stayed at this property for good 4 nights to explore the city with 2 kids. The place is clean. We used the sofa to sleep on. Kids found it decent to sleep. Kitchen is stocked well. We cooked breakfast and some dinner. It had even some spices, oil, tea, coffee in the pantry. We used their big umbrella as it was rainy for few days. Communication with management was good. Location of the property was very convenient, close to metro. Whole Foods is so close. There are plenty of restaurants around. That beings said we had all we needed. I recommend this listing for stay. We will be back.

Great DC stay!

Our hosts were so responsive, informative and helpful. Easy street parking as we had rented a car. Lovely and modern home with comfy beds. There were 4 of us - 2 adults and 2 teenagers. One slept on the sofa bed. With the one bathroom, it would have been very tight with any more that 4. Thanks again!

Overall, we were very happy with our 4 week stay.

Overall, we were very happy with our 4 week stay. The property is clean and well kept. The management company was responsive to our concerns. Note that the property is an old row house (recently renovated), but as such there is an issue of noise from the upstairs residents coming through the floorboards at times. Very responsive.
