Luxury 2 bedroom apartment w/ free parking

Summary:
This large luxury 2 bedroom apartment has been custom designed and built by experienced hosts for the perfect Washington D.C. stay. Park your car for free, have a blast with the Netflix, HBO, Sling, and the electric fireplace, get a great night's sleep, use the deluxe washer/dryer if needed and go enjoy the city we love so much!

The Space:
If you're in a hurry here's the deal:

Custom designed - The English basement 2 bedroom apartment was rebuilt from the studs out to be comfortable, private, fun and zero hassle.

Experienced hosts - We have been hosts for many years, hosting over 500 guests across 4 listings with excellent reviews.

3 beds - Each bedroom has a queen size bed and the living room has a queen size sofa bed. The apartment comfortably sleeps 6 guests.

Convenience - We stock the kitchen with all the kitchen ware you'll need if you decide to do some cooking and have a great drip coffee maker with coffee provided.

Great location - The neighborhood is centrally located in the city and great public transit makes accessing the many nearby attractions easy! The U.S. Capitol and the White House are both 3 miles away. Several fun restaurants and bars are walkable. The Rhode Island metro station is half a mile and a quick 10 minute walk away.

Free Parking - our street has abundant unrestricted parking so guests have free guest parking access for multiple cars. While we cannot guarantee there will be a space directly in front of the house there will definitely be one very close by.

Guest Access:
Coded entry - Our passcode access allows for easy entry at your convenience. You can check in on your own using the code we send any time after 3pm so you don't need to stress about check in logistics. The full apartment is yours to enjoy!

The Neighborhood:
The apartment is located in Washington, District of Columbia, United States.

Our neighborhood is very diverse in every way, as is all of D.C., and most urban centers in the United States.

The neighborhood is called Brookland. It is a quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors located within a few minutes of all the fun DC attractions. Guests need to be conscious and respectful of the neighbors (no loud noise outside at night).

Getting Around:
Great location - The neighborhood is centrally located in the city and great public transit makes accessing the many nearby attractions easy! The U.S. Capitol and the White House are both 3 miles away. Several fun restaurants and bars are walkable. The Rhode Island metro station is half a mile and a quick 10 minute walk away.

Free Parking - our street has abundant unrestricted parking so guests have free guest parking access for multiple cars. While we cannot guarantee there will be a space directly in front of the house there will definitely be one very close by.

Other Things to Note:
Kitchen: The kitchen is great for general cooking needs and has a stove/oven, coffee machine, microwave, hot water kettle, pots and pans, cookware, and a refrigerator with freezer.

Heating and Air Conditioning - The unit is heated and cooled using a HVAC forced air system. Temperature is adjusted by messaging the host who controls the temperature for the whole house. Fans and space heaters are also provided. The HVAC unit is located in a closet in the apartment and the fan can be heard when operating.

Laundry: The unit has a deluxe washer and dryer available for your use.

Cleaning: The apartment is professionally cleaned in between every stay.

Access/Mobility Concerns: There are 12 steps up from the street and 5 steps down to the front entrance of the apartment.

Height: This is an English basement apartment so there are a two bulkheads which will need to be avoided.

Noise: We live in this beautiful house (above the apartment) with our two elementary-age kids so while the apartment ceiling is well-insulated, sound may travel. We'll be sure not to host a dance party while you are staying with us, and ask that you show us the same courtesy.

Timing: Check-in anytime after 3:00pm, check-out by 11:00am.

Nice quiet apartment that was just what we needed for our 4-night stay with 4 adults. Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals to save a bit of money. There's ample close-by parking on the street. We hired an Uber for around 25 each time we went into DC since we aren't familiar with public transportation. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here if we were ever in the area again!

The stay was ok, but my husband and boys had a difficult time navigating through the apartment because of their height. The apartment is definitely not for tall people. They hit their heads a couple of times. I think this should be noted on the description for people to make a comfortable choice and no one is seriously hurt.The refrigerator does not keep things cool. The freezer part works fine, but the upper part does not. The apartment is located in close proximity to most museums and restaurants, so we made the best of it. Thanks for everything.

Not Luxury - Overpriced

10 high steps up & 6 high steps down to basement apt. Dark long walk around house - 1 dim light. Overhang down to apt very low. I'm 5'8" & hit my head.Large TV with good internet but impossible to enjoy by sitting on OLD sofa bed bec front of seat cushions have no support. Everyone agreed you feel like you are sliding off front of couch. Pull out sofa bed had a very uncomfortable hump.Light switch upon entering apt is across hall – hard to find. Bathroom light switch also hard to find - above sink. Cannot lock bathroom door - does not align. Shower head does not tilt - pointed to corner of shower bec of gap in shower door. Nice shower head, plenty of pressure & hot water.Unable to set own A/C temp other than opening window. We did not have a problem with their preset temperature.Full size washer/dryer. Nice thick large dark blue towels. Upon arrival, there were 7 towels, 2 hand towels, 6 wash clothes, and 3 sets of top and bottom sheets all tightly twisted together in the dryer – damp & disgusting! I had to untangle & dry them. They specifically request you to place ALL towels & sheets in washer together and start it before you check out.The beds have white comforters with blue stains from being washed with the towels. This is also disgusting! They are warm though.Nice medium size refrigerator/freezer. Nice medium size microwave. Small stove/oven. Smallest dishwasher I have ever seen. Model SPT SD-9252SS. Plenty of plates, bowls, and etc. but not enough silverwar

Great place to stay when visiting DC!

My 15 year old son and I stayed this beautiful clean apartment! It was perfectly located with ease to ride scooters and to grab an Uber. The parking on the street was perfect too!Having two bedrooms made our stay, in addition to access to wifi. The hosts gave perfect directions, were readily available, and responded quickly.

My 2 daughters, my sister, and myself were in DC for the USA Jigsaw Puzzle competition at the convention center and this was the perfect place for our trip.

I highly recommend this place if you want a quiet neighborhood to stay in.

Nice, safe stay in DC!

Traveled with kids to DC and found this apartment to be very adequate for our needs. The hosts were super responsive and helpful, which I must say made the stay so much better, leading up to and during the trip. The apartment was clean, the beds were sooooo comfortable, and it had everything needed for the family. The fireplace was definitely utilized as it was cold and snowing and probably the main reason I booked here. Space heaters and fans are provided if needed... just be careful not to plug in one in each room, or you will trip a fuse like I did when I plugged in 3 of them (2 is fine, though). I've never stayed in a basement apartment before, so just be aware that you will hear the family upstairs, particularly if you are staying in the bedroom with stairs leading up to the house. Flight was delayed, and we arrived close to 1AM, in the morning; I woke up to a child crying as they were getting ready for school. Can pretty much hear everything from that room. Had a mishap when the showerhead disconnected while my daughter was showering, but again, the owner was super responsive and had it fixed within a few hours. Safe neighborhood, conveniently located with free parking, no need for a permit. Would definitely recommend it!

Steep stairs up from street and then steep stairs in back of home down to basement. (This was difficult for older adults.) Lighting outdoors was minimal. No egress windows was concerning. Otherwise, property met our needs. Cleaning service needs to dust and vacuum better in bedrooms.

We enjoyed our weekend at the apartment. The apartment was very clean and spacious. It was also very centrally located for our activities. The owners were very attentive to a minor issue we had and took care of it immediately. I will say, be prepared to walk up steep steps with your luggage to approach the house and then down a few steps to enter the apartment. Other than that, it's a great place to stay and I would most definitely stay there again.
