About this property

Charming City Centered Walk to Zoo!

  • Summary:

    Look no further for the perfect home base from which to explore DC! Just like Alice, from behind the secret-like entrance lies a lovely, surprising space - tucked away in the midst of DC`s activity. A parking pass is available and must be requested in advance, simply sign up, request, and print (BEFORE you travel)!



    The Space:

    Our lovely bright English basement apartment can comfortably sleep four guests in the following configuration:

    - a queen bed in the Main Room

    and a queen sized sofa bed in the living room



    The home is complete with a full kitchen for those hoping to cook, although with the plethora of neighboring restaurants, that notion may become a thing of the past!



    Surprising amounts of natural light contribute to the cozy but modern feel. With mid-century modern accents, and meticulous anticipation of guests needs, any traveler will feel at home here, and truly experience living like a local.



    Easy proximity to public transportation, and the iconic, Historic Adam’s Morgan neighborhood!



    ~ While we can’t guarantee parking, some guests have had luck getting temporary permits from neighboring police stations. Guests would need to bring their trip itinerary with their full name, dates of stay, and street address of the residence.

    This is at the discretion of the police stations however, and cannot be guaranteed.

    We also provide excellent resources and coupon codes for finding nearby garages at the cheapest rates.



    Guest Access:

    Guests will have access to the entire apartment. It is not shared.



    There is a family living upstairs. Please note that the everyday sounds and noises of family life (footsteps, stairs, kids playing, etc.) can be heard in both directions. You will undoubtedly hear them (and they will hear you) as they go about their everyday life.



    The Neighborhood:

    Adam’s Morgan is a hub of activity! No shortage of restaurants and bars down 18th St, and just parallel lies Columbia Rd, for a slower paced night out with can’t miss designer restaurants!



    Modern trends and styles flow through the historic row homes and streets, creating an atmosphere that can’t be beat!



    Getting Around:

    The location is amazing! Walking distance from the Zoo, Adam`s Morgan neighborhood and metro as well various buses to quickly take you to all the major sights. Capital Bikeshare`s surround the area as well, so for those inclined, its a great way to borrow a bike and explore the area!



    Other Things to Note:

    The entrance to the apartment is very narrow. Most suitcases should be fine, however, guests should be mindful of that fact.



    Additionally, family-friendly amenities such as a Pack 'n Play are available upon request.



    Interaction with Guests:

    We are always available for any questions or issues that may arise during your stay.
