Capitol Hill is our home. We love it and know you will too! We've raise two kids on the Hill and now they are off to college. We've lived in this neighborhood for over 25 years and wouldn't live anywhere else! The apartment is six blocks from Union Station Metro stop.

Capitol Hill is a wonderful neighborhood full of pocket parks and beautiful old homes. Beyond the monuments and museums there is a whole other side to Washington. We love walking to Eastern Market on the weekends to get fresh fruits and veggies. The fresh pasta is the best! We take a stroll through the flea market and then sit with a good cup of coffee and watch the world go by.

I love to cook and we both love to eat! Washington has lots of restaurants with every possible ethnic variety available. H Street, NE just a few minutes away has many nice options from Asian to Ethiopian to Belgian. On 8th Street SE you will find great burgers, seafood and homemade pop tarts.

We have recently given up our car. The public transportation options are so plentiful we just didn't need it anymore. You can go by Metro, bus, or Bikeshare. If you need a car Zipcars are plentiful and close by. For those who come to DC by car there is off street parking at Union Station a 10 minute walk away.

The apartment is six blocks from the Capitol. There are many museums and cultural attractions on the Hill and close by on the National Mall. Washington DC Segway Tours, Old Town Trolley Tours, Capital City Bike Tours, DC Ducks Tour, C&O Canal Boat Rides, U.S. Navy Museum, Marine Barracks Parade and more. Just let us know what you are interested in and we are happy to help you have the best vacation ever!

Lovely renovated brownstone basement apartment with modern amenities and a fireplace for the cool, rainy evenings. Spring was beautiful and flowers spectacular. The neighborhood was friendly and convenient for transportation, sightseeing, and nice restaurants. We especially enjoyed the variety of food and grocery/beverages...Oriental, German, French, and Mexican! Owner provided loads of information for enjoyment of city and ease of sightseeing including a Smart Card which was very helpful. Just a warning to old and young...get your legs used to quite a lot of walking!

Owner's Response: Yes, walking is required in DC. If you've got the legs, its absolutely the best way to see the city! We love walking the neighborhoods and seeing everyone's small pocket gardens up close. You also get a better sense of the history and the majesty of L'Enfants design.

The Perfect Location

We spent a marvelous week in Washington D.C. with this jewel of an apartment as our base. It is nestled in a delightful neighborhood with little restaurants and a fabulous bagel breakfast stop! Inside all our needs were met with the latest updates in appliances, bathroom amenities and much more including a bed that was so comfortable we had to set an alarm to make us get up! At the end of a busy day with lots of walking it was a joy to relax here and use the WIFI to "catch up". Far superior to any hotel the warmth of this place and its neighborhood made our vacation perfect. Our hostess was very responsive as well. You can't do better than this!

Sparkling Clean and Great Location

5 of 5

Our family of four stayed in this apartment for a week and thoroughly enjoyed our accommodations. The property has been beautifully updated and is very clean and well-stocked. Union Station is only a 10-minute walk away; Eastern Market and the Capitol are about 15 minutes. Monica was easy to contact when we had questions both before and during our trip. She has also compiled a gem of a folder complete with metro passes, pamphlets, maps, instructions, etc. Everything you need to get your bearings is there. I would highly recommend this apartment in a lovely, historic neighborhood. And, by the way, if you're traveling when it's cold outside, there are heated floors inside and a gas fireplace. Very, very cozy!

This is a lovely, comfortable and meticulously clean apartment that is perfect for a family of 3 or 4.
( Note that the futon couch in living room is a double bed). The photos and site information are very accurate. There were numerous supplies available for the house, and Moncia always responds rapidly, by phone or email, to any questions. We rented the apartment for more than a month during November and December while visiting family, and were thrilled to have such a fabulous kitchen so we could help prepare holiday meals. The fireplace adds a wonderful, cozy touch. The apartment is a convenient walk to many Capitol Hill landmarks, Union Station, the parks, and Eastern Market. If you are visiting family in Capitol Hill, be sure to have your family get a guest parking pass for that zone and you will be able to park on the street in the area. We look forward to returning!
