Enjoyed Washington, DC!

Thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Washington DC. Restaurants, subway and grocery store were all within a 10 minute walk from the apartment. Great location overall. Apartment is only accessible via a narrow spiral staircase, so is not easily accessible for all.

Comfort, quiet in a great location

This property is a small penthouse in a safe, quiet neighborhood near, but not in the middle, of Washington. Transportation and nice neighborhood bistros and shopping are nearby. The property owners live onsite and are sensitive to their guests needs. The accommodations are spacious with everything one needs, and more.

five flights of stairs plus one metal circular stairwell before you enter the apartment

MUST climb five flights of stairs plus a spiral staircase. It is NOT indicated in the listing. Be aware. I am sixty-five and healthy but have a left arthritic knee. So I was not able to climb the number of stairs.The owner is very nice and responsive.

Thanksgiving 2023 week

Well appointed, spacious, and bright attic suite with fireplace and terrace. Nice neighborhood walking distance to grocery store, cafes, and restaurants. Comfortable king bed. Spiral staircase was not a problem, but something to watch out for some guests. Much enjoyed our stay and specially sitting by the warm push button fireplace. Highly recommend.

Excellent and Wonderful

Wonderful property. Affordable and clean. Well appointed. Stayed here with my son as we launched him on his internship. We didn’t need a full kitchen but had the necessities of a coffee maker and fridge. Beautiful and safe neighborhood and convenient to where we needed to be. Owner very kind and receptive to thermostat needs and questions. Would stay here again. Highly recommend

Airy top floor apartment

We very much enjoyed our stay at this clean, bright third-floor apartment. While sparely furnished, it has all the essentials, and the high ceilings in the LR with floor to ceiling windows out to the terrace highlight the green treetop views. Terrific value, as most other options at this price point in the neighborhood are basement apartments with little light. Last flight of stairs is a spiral staircase which might be tricky for some. Would stay again.
