About this property

Boutique Retreat - apartment in DC - Sleeps 6

Welcome to the Chef’s Quarters, a thoughtfully designed private lower-level retreat in Washington, DC, created for guests who want comfort, convenience, and a stay that feels intentional.



This private 2-bedroom, 1-bath space is located in the lower level of a DC home and is ideal for families, visiting professionals, medical travelers, students, interns, federal contractors, and guests exploring the city. Whether you’re in town for a quick getaway, an extended work assignment, a campus visit, or time near one of DC’s nearby hospitals or universities, the Chef’s Quarters offers a warm and welcoming home base.



The space includes two comfortable bedrooms, one full bathroom, a cozy living area with a sleeper sofa, dedicated in-unit laundry, and a convenient kitchenette with essentials for a comfortable stay. Please note that the kitchenette is designed for light meals, coffee, snacks, and easy reheating rather than full-scale cooking. Guests can enjoy a refrigerator, sink, coffee maker, tea steeper, water cooler with hot and cold filtered water, and other thoughtful touches to help make the stay easy.



Guests have a private entrance and keyless self check-in, so arrival is simple and flexible. Your unique access code and full check-in details will be provided before arrival. There is no need to coordinate an in-person key exchange.



The living area is designed for relaxing after a day in the city, with comfortable seating and entertainment options. The bedrooms offer a cozy place to recharge, and the dedicated washer and dryer make the space especially convenient for longer stays.



Parking is available by request, and street parking may also be available nearby subject to posted signs and city regulations. If you plan to drive in and rely on walking, rideshare, or public transportation during your stay, this is a convenient setup. A bus stop is located nearby, making it easy to connect to other parts of the city.



The Chef’s Quarters is located in Northeast Washington, DC, with convenient access to hospitals, universities, local dining, neighborhood favorites, and downtown DC attractions. Guests are close to major medical and academic campuses, making the space a great fit for visiting families, traveling nurses, medical professionals, students, interns, and anyone who wants a comfortable stay with easy access around the city.



We created the Chef’s Quarters with hospitality in mind. As hosts, we love good food, thoughtful details, and helping guests experience DC in a way that feels local and relaxed. You’ll find recommendations for nearby restaurants, coffee shops, transportation options, and local favorites to help make your visit easier.



Guests will have private access to the rental space during their stay. We respect your privacy but are available if you need anything or have questions before or during your visit.



Whether you’re visiting DC for work, school, family, medical travel, or a weekend in the city, the Chef’s Quarters offers a comfortable, private, and well-located place to settle in.
