Cap Hill: Large Urban /Luxe Studio. Sleeps 1-4, Walk to Capital, Union Station

At 816 sq ft, (76 meters), this ground level studio apt., located in the heart of Capitol Hill, is more spacious then most one bedroom apts on The Hill. The unit offers city living w/ plenty of international accents. Whether it’s the Moroccan lanterns that cast exotic shadows in the open corridor, or the French coffee and pastries that lure you to the bistro-styled dining area, the French and American owners definitely have the “French Touch.” This unit is extremely spacious w/ its dedicated bedroom, living, dining, kitchen, reading nook & bathroom. A super- comfy queen bed, twin day bed and futon couch in the living area accommodate up to 4 people comfortably.

YOUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME... The unit features a kitchen, dining area, bedroom, living room, with central air, washer/dryer, steam dishwasher, toaster, microwave, stove, granite counter-tops, accent lighting, exposed brick, ceramic floor, “California”-style closet, flat screen TV w/ cable, Wii console and games, gas grill and free Wi-FI.

WE'VE THOUGHT OF EVERYTHING... Keyless entry, high-quality linen, bathrobes, slippers, luxury soaps, iron/board, dishes, coffee grinders, coffee makers, tea pot, champagne and wine glasses, cocktail shaker, luggage racks, playing cards, cooking and grilling utensils, eclectic library with books for kids and adults, a first aid kit and a handyman's toolkit.

We provide starter items so that you don't have to run to the store for basic things like condiments/seasonings, cooking oil, teas, sugar, washing detergent, paper goods, etc.

OUTSIDE YOUR DOOR... Like Paris, Washington, DC is a walking city. Step outside the front entrance and explore both the popular and hidden treasures of Capitol Hill. A ten-minute walk takes you to bustling Eastern Market—-one of the only remaining merchant markets left in Washington. A trip on the weekend gives visitors a sense of the character and charm that residents and guests from all over the world have come to appreciate. Browse the craft stands of local artists and artisans or shop for antiques. Enjoy breakfast at the Market Lunch or pick up some fresh produce, fish or meat to bring back for the grill.

The unit is several blocks from the U.S. Capitol and minutes from the Library of Congress, Supreme Court, Union Station and National Mall. Great location for Spring Break, Summer vacations and Fall/Winter Holidays.

PARKING: If you have a car, there is ample on-street parking and we'll provide a complimentary parking pass.

CONVENIENT TO KEY ATTRACTIONS: Within 10-20 minutes walking, you will find many significant American landmarks, museums, and monuments including the U.S. Capitol, U.S. Supreme Court, the Library of Congress, Folger Shakespeare Library, Union Station, the Marine Corps Barracks, and Congressional Cemetery. Venture down one of the historic residential alleyways like Archibald Walk and Brown’s Court. Each will tell a story of their own.

Walk, bike or take the train to other convenient sites and neighborhood including the White House, Arlington Cemetery, Georgetown, Dupont Circle, Woodley Park and Adams Morgan. Capital Bikeshare stations are blocks away in every direction.

Well-mannered children are welcome.
Smoking is not permitted in the unit.

Great location

My only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is because we were surprised at the lower height of the ceilings. My son and husband are a little over 6 ft and they felt a little crammed. But accommodations are very nice, and location was great for us.

Happy times on The Hill

From the get go Carla and Fred made our stay great! We were welcomed with a parking spot on a street that finds them hard to come by at times. The location, the property, and the hosts were all top notch. I can’t recommend a stay here enough.

Excellent in so many ways!

Such a quaint place in an amazing area, close to the Capital! We will definitely stay here again if/when we visit DC in the future. The home was spotless, spacious and had everything we needed. We walked most everywhere but Ubers were easy when we needed them. Parking was a big concern for us when booking and it was very easy/convenient here (and free). Thanks for a great stay!

Quick DC trip

This property is in an excellent location! Carla and Fred are excellent hosts. The property was comfortable for us as a place to rest after very busy days. While we did not use the kitchen, there was plenty if you plan to eat in during your stay. The location was an easy walking distance to many restaurants. We would love to stay here again when we visit in the future!

Cherry Blossom Parade stay

Carla and Fred were lovely hosts. It was a great and safe location. It’s a 30 minute walk to the nation’s capital or 15 minute walk to Metro at the lovely Eastern Market area. Everything was perfect. Only suggestion would be more water pressure in the shower, but a minor inconvenience and I would love to return!

Capitol Hill bungalow close to everything

We stayed at a bottom flat in the Capitol Hill district of DC. It is situated within about a 1/2 mile of Eastern Market. We used all forms of transportation to see the sites of DC: Metro, walking, bikes, scooters & an occasional Lyft. The bungalow has everything you need; we were able to have breakfasts and bring in takeout for a few meals. The owner is really nice. She lives up stairs and helps out with recommendations for restaurants and attractions. We would definitely stay there again!

Visiting for a conference and a visit with family

The Capital Hill community is a very safe, residential community where you see lots of people walking dogs and pushing baby carriages. Street parking was easier than expected. There were walkable coffee and food spots in several directions. Ubers to all our events were between $10-$20 and less than 20 minutes. Our hosts were lovely and the apartment was comfortable, well apointed and very clean.

Great Stay!

Unit was extremely clean...everything seemed to be renovated/updated (appliances, washer/dryer, etc...). Location is in a residential neighborhood, felt very safe and quiet. Unit was very cool despite very hot temperatures outside. We didn't use the kitchen much but was fine for our needs. Beds were comfortable. Linens clean/new. This the lower floor unit of a multiple level home. Did not have any issues with noise above us and personally like having owners close by. Had a couple of quick interactions with owners, very helpful, kind and attentive. Would recommend and would rent again, if we return to the area. Thank you!

Family DC Trip

Size of the apartment was perfect. Location was excellent. Unfortunately many things listed as perks were not available- no soap, coffee, etc. There is no Back patio as advertised. Unfortunately we got locked out (because none of the instructions say to not lock the bottom like- as we do in our house so it was habit for my husband). Oh well except we sat outside for an hour with both kids repeatedly calling and messaging the contact number. We even chatted with Vrbo. Finally my husband called Vrbo and they had another number on file (I even asked that when chatting) and Fred answered and came right out. Phone numbers where guests can reach you in an emergency are important. After that Fred checked in every day and it was great.

Feels bigger than it is

Our first trip to DC. My family of four (including 2 teens) fit comfortably in this space. It was clean and quiet. Having laundry machines on site was a plus. The kitchen could use a few more basic utensils (if you plan on cooking, check with owner on what you need). Small markets are within walking distance, albeit a ten minute walk. But you can Uber if you have a large haul. We did not have a vehicle; were able to walk to Metro station to get most places and Uber if needed. Owners were attentive when we checked in. A/C was much appreciated because of extreme heat. But there isn’t a way to control temp in the unit-you have to work with the owners (just an FYI). Bed was super comfy and sofa beds were too. WiFi and Netflix are available. Definitely a neighborhood feel, plan to walk a bit to find a restaurant. Felt safe, even walking in the late evening. I would stay there again.
