National's Park is also within walking distance (24 minutes on foot), so guests can easily take in a game and enjoy a slice of Americana with some peanuts and crackerjacks!

Pennsylvania Avenue is surrounded by some of the most iconic restaurants in DC. A short walk from the home is the Eastern Market;  DC's original and premier food & arts market, the market is DC's destination for fresh food, community events, and on weekends it comes alive with local farm-fresh produce and handmade art and craft stalls and a flea market.

You can walk to everything but there are lots of nearby buses, (DC Trolley, DC Streetcar and Metro buses)  and more options for direct metro access from the 3 nearby metro stations.

It was a great location! It worked out well for our family. Even though we wanted a 2 bedroom, it was a snug fit, but it really worked out well. It was a super hot time in DC so could have used a fan to move the cool air out from the back bedroom where the AC was, but all in all a great stay. Clean property and very responsive mgmt company.

The property exceeded my expectations. The pictures are good but in person the property is perfect. We had all the comforts of home in an inviting, well maintained and warmly designed property. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

The place was very clean and had everything we needed. Nice neighborhood, walking distance to restaurants and groceries. We got the parking pass and parked right in front of the apartment, never had to drive anywhere for the whole week. Scooters and bikes made it a breeze.

Fantastic location - 3 minute walk to Eastern Market & Eastern Market Metro Station - great shops/restaurants close - quiet (as quiet as Cap Hill gets) - clean & comfy. Not fancy - but, great place to cook/sleep while enjoying DC. Would stay again!

This property was the perfect location for me, my husband, and toddler to explore D.C. while also having a place to come back to that was in a quiet neighborhood. The property was clean and we had no issues with the check-in process. The only complaint we had was that the AC unit was located in the bedroom in the back and didn't seem to pull moisture out of the air very well. It got very humid in there, especially at night when we were trying to sleep.
