Bloomingdale Beauty in NW DC 9 blocks from Union Station, near RED LINE/NOMA

If you are looking for an authentic experience do consider staying at my home during your stay in DC. I am located on a tree-lined block in the Bloomingdale neighborhood in NW. It's a neighborhood of only about 12 square blocks with many hidden treasures: unassuming dive bars, surprise parks and award-winning restaurants. Bloomingdale is sandwhiched between the neighborhoods of Shaw and Eckington. It is on the border of the District’s northwest quadrant, stretching from Second Street NW to North Capitol, bordered by Florida Avenue NW to the south and Bryant and Channing places NW to the north.

Bloomingdale Beauty is a spacious Victorian home with 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. It can hold comfortably 13 guests. However, there are only 10 beds. Air beds and tatamis are available for additional persons beyond 10. I offer my home as a clean, cheap, and safe place to sleep and recharge in the Nation's Capital. It's humble and doable for a few nights. There's a kitchen per your use. However, should you need to really cook, you will have to bring your essentials.

The home has a dining room with a very large wood table, a living room to lounge with guests; an iron with an ironing board; hangers; and etc. PLEASE NOTE: This listing is for the upper unit of the home. There is a basement unit as well. Each unit is completely private and secure. There may be guests in the basement unit during your stay. There is a security system with cameras on the outside's front entry and back exit of home.
