About this property

Bloomingdale Beauty - Sleeps 4 in Style!

Summary:
Our stunning apartment is the perfect anchor to your adventures in the District! Just 2 miles from the White House, with convenient metro access; guests can explore the city on foot & enjoy the history (and amazing restaurants) right outside.

The Space:
Your search for where to stay in DC for business or pleasure stops here! Nestled amongst Bloomingdale`s iconic historic row homes (alongside some amazing restaurants, cafes and bars), you will find our spacious, renovated two-bedroom lower level apartment brimming with old world charm & modern amenities.

The apartment has excellent WiFi, a laptop friendly workspace, a large smart TV (allows streaming and access to personal Netflix, HuluPlus, Amazon Prime, HBO Go accounts, and more).

The kitchen includes all updated appliances and amenities needed to allow you to start the day or enjoy a relaxing meal in the evening.  A huge island is a perfect place to work, chat, or wind down while dinner is being prepared. 

We can comfortably sleep 4 guests with the following configuration:
- 1st bedroom has a Queen bed
-2nd bedroom has a Queen bed


Whether you`re here for a day or a month, for business or pleasure; you will truly be able to relax in this bright and airy retreat situated RIGHT in the heart of our Nation`s Capital.

You will hear a child at play, and a newborn in the house above you, neighborhood dogs barking, BBQs, buses, and the occasional siren, as this is an urban area. The upstairs tenants maintain quiet hours from 10 pm to 7am (though you may still hear footsteps). They will be conscious of noise during other hours, and we ask guests to do the same!

~ White noise machines are provided in all of the rooms to help block out any ambient noise.

Also note that the space is NOT a good fit for parties, or groups who plan to go out on the town until late. We are a rowhouse, with shared walls on both sides and lots of neighbors. There are children living upstairs who get up pretty early, including on the weekends.

Guest Access:
Guests have this entire 2-bedroom apartment to themselves and will be sent access to unlock the private entrance door prior to check-in.

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:
Bloomingdale / Shaw neighborhood is a trendy neighborhood, popular with families and the younger DC crowd. It`s residential, but has great access to downtown. If you want to stay in the neighborhood, stroll a few blocks down the magnificent tree-lined streets to find neighborhood favorites like Red Hen, Bacio Pizzeria, Big Bear Cafe, Showtime, The Royal, and so much more! Pop down to Yoga District for your daily workout, the (secret...shhh!) Crispus Attucks Park for a picnic, or head over to Sylvan Cafe for coffee and a quick treat. And there are many more great food options in the NoMA / Gallaudet and Bloomingdale neighborhoods. We provide a property guide stock full of our local favorites!

Getting Around:
No need for a car at this location! Both the NoMa-Gallaudet U Metro Station (red line) and the Shaw / Howard University Station (yellow and green lines) are a short, 15 minute walk from the home. Buses are plentiful in the area and you can catch 5 different bus lines within 4 blocks of the house. For those looking for something more active, guests can WALK to the White House, Smithsonian Museums, and so much more in just over half an hour. DC National Airport is a short 20 minute ride/uber from the home.

Other Things to Note:
You will hear a child at play, and a newborn in the house above you, neighborhood dogs barking, BBQs, buses, and the occasional siren, as this is an urban area. The upstairs tenants maintain quiet hours from 10 pm to 7am (though you may still hear footsteps). They will be conscious of noise during other hours, and we ask guests to do the same!

We want you to make the most of your stay, so we've partnered with DC’s city tour company See DC Today to help ensure an amazing visit, at the best rate possible! Sit back and relax as the finest, most highly-trained and knowledgeable guides take you through the city, to soak up the surrounding history.
Feel free to give us a call to find out about the discounted rates we have secured for Home Sweet City's guests.

Interaction with Guests:
We are always available for questions, or any issues that arise during your stay.

Parking Hassle
The apartment, neighborhood and management were perfect.A solid ten! After we were on the road, we got the check-in info w a link to DC Parking Permits that had to be printed and put on the dashboard. i-95 rest stops do not have printers. Check in is at 4....you will need a parking permit until 8:30. We tried online, but only got a two hour electronic permit. Sat and Sun do not require permits, but Monday AM to Friday at 8:30, the parking hawks are out writing tickets. Hint - When you enter your license plate number into the system, do not put a space or dash.

Inviting and quiet location in the heart of D.C.
Loved this property. In a great area of Washington D.C.. Very well equipped and extremely clean with comfortable beds. I thought for being in a city center that it was extremely quiet. Friends who live close by were surprised by how quiet it was compared to their own home. We had a lovely dinner there with our friends; it's that inviting.

Perfect weekend stay
Everything we needed for the 3 day weekend we spent in DC. Perfect size for 4 people to stay, hang out, and sleep. Easy to find and central to a lot of really fun restaurants. One thing- I will point out to any venue that does this because it’s something you don’t always have, and that’s easy to reach outlets in the bedrooms! It might seem minor but having an outlet right near the bed to be able to plug in our travel charger docks and extra phone batteries for when we’re out exploring is great and always appreciated! This venue was great and we would absolutely consider staying again!

Immaculate
I have stayed at many but none have surpassed the cleanliness of this place! It was Immaculate! The furniture had steam cleaning marks on it! The size was perfect for two couples and just the right distance from DC. A Walk to the people’s pub was a perfect break. There is plenty of seating but best suggestion is a second loveseat. Would definitely stay again. Host was responsive and the checkin was seamless. Thanks!

Great property
My mother and I enjoyed our stay. Great communication with owners, and everything was as advertised. In the interest of fairness, I will say that if you like sleeping in, this might not be the property for you. I'm sure the family upstairs is great, just know you're going to hear every step they take. They also have a little one who loves to run. Not there fault, nor the owners.
