About this property
Charming English basement apartment in historic Dupont Circle
Enjoy this charming 1br/1ba (sleeps 2-4+) English Basement apartment with private entrance in a historic 1890 Townhouse within walking distance of Dupont Circle, Logan Circle and the U Street Corridor. This tastefully furnished apartment has one bedroom with a king size Tempurpedic bed, a queen size sleeper sofa, plus several inflatable beds of various sizes. It's the perfect location for a business trip or a visit to DC's many incredible sites. And I don't charge a cleaning fee! I’ve lived in the main house above the apartment for over 20 years, so I’m happy to answer questions about the area and offer suggestions for your stay.
The apartment is a stone's throw from dozens of restaurants (6 with Michelin stars!), shops, clubs and within easy walking distance of two Metro lines. There's no off-street parking for the unit, but free temporary residential parking can be arranged for visitors to take advantage of the plentiful street parking in the neighborhood.

We loved our stay at this property, we had great contact with the host, always answered our texts! Great location & close to night life. Apartment was very clean, quiet and comfortable, loved our KING bed! Plenty of closet space to top it off! Plan on visiting again, Thank you Frank! :)
Our stay here was great. Fantastic neighborhood with lots of food options nearby. Metro was also a walkable distance. Very walkable and safe. The unit was clean and well stocked with all of the necessities. Frank was very responsive and willing to help us with any questions. Would definitely stay here again!

What a great location! Frank was easy to communicate with. We had an excellent stay.
The apartment was clean and well organized. The host is very kind and helpful from parking to making everything easy. He also is one of the best at communicating with the renter.
Loved staying at this property! An under 10 minute walk to the Green Line station and many restaurants. Parking was easy to find and the owner was very helpful in getting the permit and the check-in / check-out process. 10/10 would definitely recommend staying here.

Excellent apartment. Great location, close to metro stations, shops, restaurants and sight seeing. Very comfortable apartment with everything you need.
The owner immediately fix an issue we had during our stay. Excellent communication from checkon to checkout. Location is close to restaurant s and Traders Joe
The apartment was just perfect for us. The location was great and it had everything we needed. Frank was a great host that helped us with everything from parking to dining recommendations. Thanks for hosting us.
Frank and Ty could not have been more accommodating! The apartment is in a great area with shops snd restaurants nearby. It was a quick Uber ride to all of the sights. We will definitely stay here again if we return to DC.
Overall, this is a great apartment in a beautiful location-easy to public transportation and walking distance to major attractions as well as great cafes, bars and restaurants. Highly recommend!
This listing was great for us as it was close to so many restaurants. Walking distance to the Metro and bus stops. We left our car parked in the same spot all week as we walked or used the easily accessible public transit. The home itself was very organized and detailed instructions left by the host with every question we could have had.
Very easy to find & close street parking. Apartment had everything we needed including stocked kitchen & laundry. Very nice decor & huge comfortable bed. Clean bathroom. Loved the neighborhood & all dining options close by. Hostwawassnnicesfriendly
Great little spot to be our home base while we toured the capital. Host was great and really takes his guests comfort into account. It is a thoughtfully set up little apartment.
This was a nice basement apartment in a really great neighborhood. The restaurants in the area were great and easy to walk to. It was a really comfortable stay and Frank was great with communication!
We had a wonderful time ! Nice apartment with an amazing host.
The location is great close to buses, subway and the only couple blocks from restaurants and bars.
Frank’s basement house was perfect for our family of 4. The kids slept on the pullout couch and we were also able to cook meals at night. The location was perfect to take a quick uber to all the sites in DC. Frank was also great at communicating. Would definitely recommend!
Favorite things - the host's quick response to inquiries, location to bus line and restaurants, and free parking. Nice size for a couple and a comfortable bed, too.It is a basement apartment with little natural light and a little damp. It was clean, but would benefit from a deeper clean.I would definitely stay here again if in the area.
The apartment was in a great location, easy to get to the metro, shops and restaurants, but on a quiet street. Frank was a great host, and the apartment was set up nicely. I’ll definitely check to see if it’s available next time I visit DC.
I took my 3 teens/tweens to see the historic sights of DC and this apartment was a great home base. Easy walk to Metro and bus-stops. no concerns with the neighborhood - we parked the car right in front of the house and left it there with no concerns/problems. Easy to find food choices in the neighborhood as well
