About this property

Lovely Shaw Apartment - Sleeps 4, WALK to White House

  • This QUIET gorgeous, newly renovated find with designer touches is perfect for your D.C. stay. With an unbeatable WALK SCORE of 99, the apartment is close to the Monuments, Museums, Mall, and White House (approx. 10 minutes by car). For those who prefer the metro, the nearest station (U Street) is less than a 5-minute walk! If you're here for business or vacation, there's no better spot if you want a cozy and quite space.

    Located in the trendy Shaw neighborhood, the apartment occupies the entire lower level of one of D.C.'s fabulous historic row homes on a tree-lined street. Our beautiful one-bedroom, air-conditioned apartment is ideal for single travelers, couples, or small families on vacation hoping to check D.C. off their bucket list!

    For those visiting D.C. for work, the apartment is a short distance from major business attractions — with the Convention Center easily accessible by car (approx. 5 minutes), metro (approx. 10 minutes), and foot (approx. 20 minutes).

    Amenities include:

    Comfortably sleeps 4 guests in the queen-sized bed in the main bedroom (with its own en-suite bathroom), and the super comfy sofa bed in the living space.

    Large kitchen with huge island, full-size refrigerator, and dishwasher, perfect for folks who love to cook up a storm! Trader Joe's is only an 8-minute walk on foot, so a quick pop-out for supplies is convenient.

    Spacious living area for relaxing, and large, beautiful bay windows to enjoy a glass of wine and people watch to your heart’s content.

    Large 43" SmartTV that lets you stream your favorite content from your Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney, HULU, and other accounts.

    Peloton bike is in the apartment so you can stay up with your fitness routine. (No kids on the bike please!)

    For those traveling with little ones, the apartment has a Pack ‘n Play with linens.

    Some of the District’s best restaurants (Maydan, Le Diplomate, Dabney, and more!) are a short stroll away, so if you’re looking for a night off from cooking — this is THE place for you!

Wonderful location and stay

We enjoyed the lower level apartment immensely … five minute walk (if that) to the metro station … both bed and sofa bed were comfortable and the kitchen was very nice … close walk to Trader Joe’s for fridge stocking … bathroom and shower both clean and nice … We did have a slight issue with millipedes (slow crawling insects about an inch or so long) … we would see four to five a day making their slow trek across the floors but we left them alone and they left us alone :) … we just had to be mindful of where we were stepping at times … We would stay here again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend the place to anyone needing a spot to stay in Washing DC :)

Cute place and great neighborhood!

The place looked like the photos, was very cute. Trader Joe's and other grocery shopping a few blocks away, so are many places to dine. Super cute area. Was a little hard getting Ubers on time, recommend scheduling in advance if going that route. Metro is also close! Was worried it may be far for a couple of my meetings (in Virginia) but the longest commute I had was 25 minutes.

Fabulous DC apartment

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this location. Such a cute and well apportioned place. It was super close to Metro and we were able to get everywhere we needed to go in DC by accessing the metro near the home. The nearby eateries and grocery store gave us a lot of options to go out to dinner or stay in and cook a meal. Also some great coffee places a couple of blocks in either direction of the home so we were able to have some great coffee options too when we didn’t want to make our own coffee at the apartment. The property manager Charlotte was also very responsive and helpful from original booking and throughout the stay! Thank you for a making our DC trip a memorable one!
