STEPS TO US CAPITOL - - MUSEUMS - !!! MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND discount

Come to Celebrate Memorial Day weekend in the Nation's Capital

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION !!!
Location is the name of the game, and that’s where we are champs! Check it out on the map — we are just steps from the U.S. Capitol!
Our convenient and safe location has an authentic neighborhood feeling. While staying here, you may run into your favorite (or not) politicians, as "these people" are our neighbors, and so we receive additional protection from the U.S. Capitol Police and their K-9s.
We are half a block (less than three minutes on foot) from the Metro, and are perfectly situated on the Orange, Blue, and Silver lines. You can take the Metro from either Reagan National or Dulles International airports!
We are walking distance to Nationals Stadium (10-15 minutes stroll — GO NATS!), Navy Yard, Eastern Market, restaurants, cafés, parks, a cozy movie theater, and much more.
This is a large, bright 1BR 1BA — not a basement — not a shared space — it's your 1000 sq ft private apartment with its own entrance!

*** We are fully inspected by the District of Columbia, and we have a valid certificate of occupancy and current licenses. ***

● Peaceful, large, newly carpeted bedroom with queen bed and extremely comfortable memory-foam mattress and pillows — Upon request, an additional single hotel-style roll-away bed is available (not an air bed) for a third registered guest or for those who prefer not to share the queen bed. A small fee applies, and the roll-away bed MUST be requested at booking time. The sofa is not a sleeper-sofa.
● Smart Flat-Screen TV (Please note we do not have cable TV) which has some limited OTA and streaming channels. You may use your favourite streaming service, such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon.
● Complimentary super-fast WiFi for this unit only, not shared with anyone else. You're secure!
● Central A/C and heating, controlled by you
● Ceiling fans in living room and bedroom
● Tiled bathroom with very large shower
● Large, fully equipped Kitchen with granite countertops
● Gas stove and oven
● Microwave
● Dishwasher (detergent provided)
● Toaster
● Electric kettle
● American drip-style, French press, and Italian moka coffee makers
● Hair Dryer and Curling Iron
● Iron and Ironing Board
● European-style washer/dryer (single unit) for small loads only (laundry detergent is NOT provided)
● Complimentary Coffee & Teas and basic condiments (oil, vinegar, salt & pepper)
● Shampoo, Conditioner, Shower Gel, Hand Soap
● Bathroom Tissue and Paper Towels
● Linen
● Make-up remover and make-up towel.

PLEASE NOTE: CHECK-IN TIME IS 3:00 pm. CHECK-OUT TIME IS 11:00 am.
We can sometimes accommodate early check-ins or late check-outs, but we are very closely booked and often it's not possible. Please inquire as far in advance as possible, and we will gladly try to help you.
If you need to leave your luggage and we can't help you, there is a convenient business half a block away which charges a small fee for this service.
The flat can comfortably accommodate three people. We don't believe in "packing in" guests.
We take pride in providing a clean, clutter-free, updated space. If something breaks or doesn't work properly, please let us know.
We provide make-up remover and a make-up towel.
Because we're so close to the Capitol, and the security situation has changed somewhat, we now require IDs upon reservation confirmation, for each guest.
Only registered guests may stay. Please do not have parties.
We will accommodate certified service animals, but we're sorry to say that other furry friends must stay home.
Book with confidence! A spotless flat has always be our primary goal and the reviews reflect our commitment: Read them yourself! The cleaning team have been with us for 10 years, and are fully trained on the necessary steps for you to have a safe and comfortable stay. All surfaces (including linens) are cleaned with disinfectants. To limit contact with common surfaces, lights in common areas are motion-activated.
We don't allow smoking inside. You may smoke outside, and there are two seating areas: The front, which is good for people-watching, and the more intimate back patio. We do not provide ash trays.
For your safety and ours, there are exterior security cameras on our property. These cameras are registered with the Metropolitan Police, and, if lawfully requested by proper authority, we will allow video access. Of course, we respect your privacy, and there are no cameras of any kind inside the flat.

If you use a car, please understand that parking on our block is heavily restricted and you risk being towed if you park without a permit. Please contact us to arrange a permit.
There's a gym, half a block away, that offers daily passes.
Nearby restaurants include local favorites Bullfeathers and Talay Thai. Beer, wine, and spirits are available for sale at several nearby locations.
Within a five-minute walking radius, you can find coffee shops (including Starbucks), banks, dry cleaner, liquor stores, groceries, pharmacies, a U.S. Post Office, and fine restaurants on Pennsylvania Avenue.
Within a 15-minute walk, you'll find Washington's famous Eastern Market, and hot Barracks Row restaurants — including a 2 Michelin-star restaurant. At Eastern Market you can find fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, cheese, and a bakery.
There’s also a public swimming pool, which charges a modest daily fee for visitors from out of town.

A great place to stay, we loved it
Marina’s apartment is in a fantastic location. It is so much closer to the Capitol and the Mall than it looks on the map, and there are plenty of good places to eat nearby. Marina met us at the apartment and showed us how everything worked, then gave us some tips for the area. The breakfast places she recommended were excellent. We used one on each day, but liked Pete’s Diner best. The apartment is spacious, and comfortable. We stayed there for two nights having been in the USA for 5 nights (in NYC) so it was helpful to have use of the washing machine before continuing our travels. We loved being in the centre of everything, and it really felt as though we were in the hub of things, in a really good way. We ate in the nearby Taco bar the first night and it was buzzing with people in suits, presumably having just finished work nearby. It was great. If you’re thinking of booking Marina’s place, go ahead. She is so helpful, and the apartment is lovely. And stay for longer. We only had two nights and could have done with longer! Angie

Live like a DC local
Perfect location to enjoy all DC has to offer, either on foot, a bike or metro. Lovely tree-lined quiet street with outdoor space for coffee and people watching. Whole Food close by! Enjoyed my time living like a local in this sweet Capital Hill spot.

Great location
We took a cab from union Station but walked to the station when leaving. It’s an easy walk! We used the metro a lot, but it’s an easy walk to the Mall and many museums. Quiet restful spot.
