Stylish & Modern Apt Shaw ~ PKING!

Summary:
Unwind amid contemporary furnishings in a bright & open living space and a lively neighborhood resting just outside your door. This is a terrific, funky pad from which to explore one of D.C. coolest neighborhoods!

A parking pass is available and must be requested in advance, simply sign up, request, and print (BEFORE you travel)!

The Space:
Our charming & stylish ground floor apartment consists of a spacious living area with a queen sized sofa bed (TV complete with smart streaming and cable), a full kitchen, and a king sized bed in the bedroom. 

Guests can enjoy the outdoor seating area (accessed via the bedroom) to soak up the warm summer nights with their favorite beverage. 

Modern design and funky accents (feel free to add your favorite experiences/recommendations to the chalkboard wall!), create a charming space to call home after traversing the city. With all amenities either inside the apartment,  or waiting just a short stroll from the home, our apartment is the ideal home base for small families, couples, business travelers or just your average adventurer! 

Parking permit included!

Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the entire unit, it is not shared.

There is a family living upstairs. Please note that the everyday sounds and noises of family life (footsteps, stairs, kids playing, etc.) can be heard in both directions. You will undoubtedly hear them (and they will hear you) as they go about their everyday life.

The Neighborhood:
The home rests on a gorgeous tree lined street, a short walk (4 minutes) from the Shaw-Howard University Station, where you have access to the yellow and green lines. There is also a convenient bus (70/79) that can take you directly to the National Mall. 

The location is the epicenter of DC’s music and dining scene, always the place to be seen in D.C! Walk up the street and catch a wide range of music shows at the historic Howard Theater, or a few more blocks to the famous “9:30 Club”. A short distance in either direction takes you to the Right Proper Brew Pub, the Shaw Tavern, Bistro Boehm, Shaw Library and a bucketful of coffee houses, fitness centers and “pop-up” eating and entertainment venues.

Getting Around:
No need for a car at this location!
With the Shaw-Howard Metro (Green and Yellow lines) just steps away, you can be at the National Mall, White House, the Capitol, Monuments and Museums, The Wharf or practically any place else in the city in 20/25 minutes or less.  

Prefer something more active? Most central Washington DC features are all within walking. Several Capital Bikeshares are located short strolls away; they offer bike rentals by the hour at excellent rates - a truly awesome way to explore the city, the Potomac Tow Path, the Anacostia Waterfront, and nearby Virginia and Maryland!

Buses also run up and down nearby 7th Street, U Street and Florida Avenue, just a short walk away. 

The G2 bus stop is a 4 minute stroll from the home, and can take guests directly to the historic and iconic Georgetown neighborhood. 

The 90/96 bus can take you to the super trendy Adams Morgan/Woodley Park neighborhood, where you can enjoy the lively night life & dining scene, and stroll the National Zoo!

The Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is an easy metro ride from the home ( 20 minutes), and it’s a short drive as well. 

Guests will be a stones throw from the U Street Corridor and 14th St, just minutes away on foot from all the fabulous restaurants bars and shopping that this hip neighborhood has to offer. Grocery stores, pharmacy and every other essential are just a few minutes walk from the home

Other Things to Note:
We can consider hosting dogs up to 45lbs on a case by case basis. We would insist on a “pet fee” which is 2x the cleaning fee, and ensures a deep clean and that no allergens are left behind.

Dogs haven’t been inside the apartment, but do live upstairs.
