About this apartment rental

Welcome to the Nation's Capital!
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION !!!
Location is the name of the game, and that’s where we are champs! Check it out on the map — we are just steps from the U.S. Capitol!
This is a large, bright 1BR 1BA — not a basement — not a shared space — it's your 1000 sq ft private apartment with its own entrance!
Our convenient and safe location has an authentic neighborhood feeling. While staying here, you may run into your favorite (or not) politicians, as "these people" are our neighbors, and so we receive additional protection from the U.S. Capitol Police and their K-9s.
We are half a block (less than three minutes on foot) from the Metro, and are perfectly situated on the Orange, Blue, and Silver lines. You can take the Metro from either Reagan National or Dulles International airports!
We are walking distance to Nationals Stadium (10-15 minutes stroll — GO NATS!), Navy Yard, Eastern Market, restaurants, cafés, parks, a cozy old-fashioned movie theater, and much more.
*** We are fully inspected by the District of Columbia, and we have a valid certificate of occupancy and current licenses. ***
Our space sleeps two comfortably. An additional single hotel-style roll-away bed is available (not an air bed) for a third registered guest or for those who prefer not to share the queen bed. A small fee applies, and the roll-away bed MUST be requested at booking time. The sofa is not a sleeper-sofa, and we kindly ask guests not to sleep on it.
YOU GET:
● Peaceful, large, newly carpeted bedroom with queen bed and extremely comfortable memory-foam mattress and pillows
● Smart Flat-Screen TV (Please note we do not have cable TV) which has some limited OTA and streaming channels. You may use your favourite streaming service, such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon
● Complimentary super-fast WiFi for this unit only, not shared with anyone else. You're secure!
● Central A/C and heating, controlled by you (NEST)
● Ceiling fans in living room and bedroom
● Tiled bathroom with large shower
● Large, fully equipped Kitchen with granite countertops
● Gas stove and oven
● Microwave
● Dishwasher (detergent provided)
● Toaster
● Electric kettle
● American drip-style and Italian moka coffee makers
● Hair Dryer and Curling Iron
● Iron and Ironing Board
● European-style washer/dryer (single unit) for small loads only (laundry detergent is NOT provided)
● Complimentary Coffee & Teas and basic condiments (oil, vinegar, salt & pepper)
● Shampoo, Conditioner, Shower Gel, Hand Soap
● Bathroom Tissue and Paper Towels
● Linen
● Make-up remover and make-up towels. Dark pillowcases are available in the closet for your use

PLEASE NOTE: CHECK-IN TIME IS 3:00 pm. CHECK-OUT TIME IS 11:00 am. We can sometimes accommodate early check-ins or late check-outs, but we are very closely booked and often it's not possible. Please inquire as far in advance as possible, and we will gladly try to help you.
If you need to leave your luggage and we can't help you, there is a convenient business half a block away which charges a small fee for this service.
We take pride in providing a clean, clutter-free, updated space. If something breaks or doesn't work properly, please let us know.
Because we're so close to the Capitol, and the security situation has changed somewhat, we now require IDs upon reservation confirmation, for each guest. Only registered guests may stay. Please do not have parties.
We will accommodate only certified service animals, but we're sorry to say that other furry friends must stay home.
Book with confidence! A spotless flat has always be our primary goal and the reviews reflect our commitment: Read them yourself! The cleaning team have been with us for more than ten years, and are fully trained on the necessary steps for you to have a safe and comfortable stay. All surfaces (including linens) are cleaned with disinfectants. To limit contact with common surfaces, lights in common areas are motion-activated.
We don't allow smoking inside. You may smoke outside, and there are two seating areas: The front, which is good for people-watching, and the more intimate back patio. We do not provide ash trays.
For your safety and ours, there are exterior security cameras on our property. These cameras are registered with the Metropolitan Police, and, if lawfully requested by proper authority, we will allow video access. Of course, we respect your privacy, and there are no cameras of any kind inside the flat.

If you use a car, please understand that parking on our block is heavily restricted and you risk being towed if you park without a permit. Please contact us to arrange a permit.
There's a gym, half a block away, that offers daily passes.
Nearby restaurants include local favorites Bullfeathers and Talay Thai. Beer, wine, and spirits are available for sale at several nearby locations.

It was a disaster. The key pad would not allow us access after we went out to dinner. The owners were not available and we spent 2 hours on phone with vrbo manager trying to reach them. This was 1030 at night! VRBO put us up in hotel. We could of stayed at The Willard but we were considerate and went to near by Marriott! The next morning we walked back in clothes we wore out. The husband agreed to comp us the night and vrbo paid for hotel. The owners then decided not to comp us for the night which we have a text showing he agreed that was fair. They did not consider how much we were inconvenienced one bit.

This first floor apartment is in a row house and it’s fun just to walk around the neighborhood! Easy to walk to the Mall or catch the metro. Super close to groceries also. Only heads up is the rollaway is unstable. We had to put it on the floor.

We enjoyed several days in Washington DC due to this rental and the owners. They left very detailed notes about checking in, even telling us where to store our luggage since we arrived early. The neighborhood is safe and charming, and the location is steps from the Capitol South Metro station. We used public transportation the entire trip or walked. It was easy to get to the East end of the National Mall and Capitol by foot and everywhere else using the Metro. We don't require a lot of extra amenities, but this place had what we needed and was very clean. I always appreciate not having to pack a hair dryer! Thanks for a great stay, Marina!

The property was very nice and conveniently located. It was clean, quiet and peaceful after a busy day walking around town site seeing. Close to the metro which we used every day. The bed was very comfortable. Thank you again for a pleasant stay!
