About this property

Gorgeous remodeled one-bedroom English basement apartment located in historic home built in 1895. Queen bed in bedroom and additional couch/ pull-out bed in living room. Fully stocked kitchen with all modern appliances. Washer and dryer available. Conveniently located only 2 short blocks from the green/ yellow metro line. You really don't need a car and in fact parking is very competitive. The DC government has an on-line system for owners to request guest parking passes. It is quite cumbersome so bringing a car is discouraged but if you need the parking pass it is available for an extra fee.

In the middle of Washington's most trendy neighborhood. You can walk to restaurants, bars, health clubs, supermarkets, public transportation, and boutique shops. Enjoy the vibrancy of this exciting and historic neighborhood within an easy walk or metro ride to the white house and all major monuments.

Nice location, well equipped, plenty of space

Matches up well with what we saw online - nice location in Logan Circle, very close to the Metro, well equipped kitchen for self catering. Would stay again

Perfect accomodation and location!

The apartment was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. We loved the space, so much room! The location was great, we walked to everything we visited, we did not need to use our metro card except for getting to and from the airport. The apartment is located in an historic area full of beautiful homes and gardens. There are plenty of restaurants a few minutes walk away. An excellent stay, thank you Dara.

A great apartment close to the action

A spacious, well-equipped apartment in a 'happening' area. Despite being a block from restaurants and shopping galore and just two blocks from the Metro, the apartment was the perfect quiet retreat after a day's sightseeing. Hard to beat and I would definitely return.

Perfect location, great home away from home

This basement apartment was perfect for a week exploring DC. The home had all amenities including a washer and dryer and we were able to cook some meals.

Great Location

The property is as advertised. Close to metro which gets you to anywhere in DC area. We needed a car for our trip to VA, but not recommended or necessary for touring DC. My son has mobility challenges and was able to walk the large block to metro easily. Stairs into unit air steep and small, but doable. Bed and pullout couch were comfortable. Sleep masks were helpful for sleeping in living room—city lights. Property had everything we needed. Area felt safe and there are plenty of places to eat within walking distance. We would stay here again. Host was also very helpful and responsive. Perfect for our trip.
