IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS
***This is the lower level unit in a historic DC rowhome that is over 130 years old (built in the 1890s!) so you WILL hear noise (i.e. footsteps) from the upstairs house, as the original floors are squeaky. We provide earplugs and white noise machines in each bedroom for your comfort.***
Guests must: (1) read our entire listing and house rules section, (2) sign our rental agreement shortly after booking & ID must be provided, (3) submit refundable security deposit*, and (4) full payment prior to check-in.
*Security deposit required of $500. Deposit to be processed by host on guest's credit card. Deposit will be taken out 3 days prior to check-in and returned in full 7 days after check out, absent damages/violations.
The ceiling height is about 6 feet 8 inches.
We live in the upstairs house so it’s possible you may see us/others staying upstairs during your stay.
The unit is centrally located in a lively area so street noise is possible. We provide earplugs for your convenience.
Most of the bedrooms are on the smaller side, ranging from 70 - 80 sq ft. When the trundle beds are pulled out for use, the beds will take up the majority of those rooms. For this reason, we have foldable / collapsible side tables, desks, and chairs which are stored in each room's closet for maximum flexibility.
We are a dog friendly property and we have a phenomenal cleaning team but they are human so there is a possibility for human error, if there is an issue during your stay let us know and we will try to address it!
Parking 🚙
There is usually street parking available in the area. Pay attention to all parking signs to avoid tickets!
If you'll have more than one vehicle, there are several parking lots 5-7 mins walking distance from the unit. There are pictures of those options in the listing.

LOCATION
The National Mall, Museums, US Capitol, and White House are all about a 10 min drive or 30 min walk away
The nearest Metro station is about a 7-9 min walk and is the Mt. Vernon/Convention Center Metro Station - this station has yellow and green line trains running directly to Downtown DC, National Mall, Convention Center, Nat's Stadium, Reagan National Airport / DCA and can connect you to all Metro lines to access anywhere you want to go across the city.
The House is located in the Shaw-Mt. Vernon Square area. Shaw is one of the city’s hippest enclaves, with craft cocktail bars, beer gardens, indie clothing boutiques and trendy global restaurants. This historically African-American neighborhood is home to the 1910 Howard Theatre, where jazz greats like Ella Fitzgerald and D.C. local Duke Ellington once performed. Today the venue hosts all sorts of music concerts and other events. Home to the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Mount Vernon Square is a small area adjacent to its namesake park and the imposing early-1900s Carnegie Library building. The neighborhood is dotted with hotels, sleek bars and upscale New American, Italian and Spanish restaurants, which cater largely to conference-goers and a smartly dressed business crowd.
