About this house rental

Summary:
100's of 5 star reviews can't be wrong. Always professionally cleaned & sanitized. Home consists of 2 separate units, main house above and apartment below. House not suitable for anyone that may be mobility impaired as there are many stairs to climb. Amazing neighbors who are quiet and enjoy greeting our guests. Easy access to anywhere in DC. Amazing shops and restaurants within a short walk. Home secured by Vivint Smart Home. Linens and towels professionally cleaned with each guest.

The Space: Historic home with original features. There are 2 sets of stairs to access the home from the street, and steep internal staircase in the main house, so if you are mobility imparied the main house may not work for you. There is a lower level apartment that comes with the rental and has bedroom, bathroom and kitchen on one floor. Meticulous professional cleaning crew that turns the whole house over with every new booking. Home consists of 2 Units, the larger main house and a separate English Basement Apartment. Spread out as you like bc we only rent to 1 group at a time. We've been Superhost's for over 6 years with mostly 5 star reviews! Multiple TV's with Apple TV. Home protected by Vivint Smart home. There is one camera in the dining room but feel free to unplug while in the house. There is no smoking anywhere on the property.

Guest Access:
2 Guest parking passes for street parking are provided (via Park DC registration). Please provide an email address and I will send instructions to register with ParkDC. There is additional parking in a garage 2 blocks away. You will be walking distance to many amazing restaurants, shops, and the local farmers markets. The kitchen is stocked with everything you will need to cook, however, there are so many great restaurants nearby you will want to try out, but be sure and bring those amazing leftovers home for a late night snack.

The Neighborhood:
Columbia Heights has been recognized as one of the most desirable places to live and play. All modes of transport are at your fingertips including DC's Capital Bikeshare which is right across the street from the apartment. Fit right in with the locals up and down 11th Street (home of Bad Saint - one of DC's best restaurants every year) where there are all sorts of new bars and restaurants...not to mention all of the big box stores and restaurants that are part of the DC USA development.

Getting Around:
Easy access to the best areas of the city via sidewalk, metro, bus or bike. The metro Green/Yellow line is just a block and a half away, and so it is just a short 5 stop trip down to the monuments and museums without transferring metro lines. Multiple bus lines and Capital Bikeshare is right across the street. If you prefer to walk, the house is within an easy 10 minute walk to the U Street, Mt. Pleasant, Petworth and Adams Morgan neighborhoods. On street visitor parking pass is available upon request. There is also a large parking garage on 14th & Irving if you want to park off the street. The cost of the garage is $20 per day.

Other Things to Note:
You'll want to come back every year once you have stayed in our home. We work hard to make this your home away from home. Most importantly, you will not step over or share space w/ other personal items/people during your stay, as we don't live here and make sure that the home is always immaculate upon your arrival. My neighbor is our caretaker, so you always have access to someone should you need assistance.

The preference is corporate groups and travelers; however, __quiet__ families are welcomed! ABSOLUTELY NO parties! Enjoy yourselves but be respectful of the neighbors. Our caretaker lives right next door and available if I can’t be reached. There is no smoking anywhere on the property. You will be charged $500 for extra cleaning protocol.

Interaction with Guests:
I keep my interaction to a minimum but always available should you need anything during your stay. Neighbors are great friends and are also very helpful whenever guests need anything

Colin was quick to communicate and even allowed us to check in when the cleaners were done. The place is spacious and roomy for a large family. Street parking was easy with the parking passes. The location is close to the Columbia Heights metro stop so you can quickly get to the Smithsonian and DC attractions. we had a great visit!

This property was perfect for our multi-generational family vacation. Just 2 blocks from the Green line, we didn’t need a car, and the walking was safe. Colin was great to work with and made the process extremely easy. The basement apartment included was a huge plus, as it gave the newlyweds their own space. Please consider this property for your next stay.

We had a fabulous stay at Colin's place. It has everything you need and more! My family of food and coffee lovers were very pleased with the setup in the kitchen. I've stayed in many, many vacation rentals and this is the first one with a KitchenAid mixer and Cuisinart food processor. Also, the art and antiques in the townhome are lovely. The neighborhood has several good restaurants within walking distance. We had a car, but never had a problem finding parking on the same block as the house. This is a great place to stay and we'd definitely stay here again.

We were a group of friends from all over the country returning to Washington for a college reunion. The house was very well appointed with plenty of room. The location was ideal with easy access to the metro. Colin, the owner , was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. You will not be disappointed !
