Great apartment in the center of the Capitol Hill neighborhood

My family enjoyed our 4 night stay here. Centrally located in a beautiful, walkable, neighborhood. Less than a 10 minutes walk to the Capitol and Union Station

Beautiful DC Getaway

Our family visited DC for my oldest son's senior trip. The location was perfect, we appreciated the thorough guide of the city and the spacious stay. The condo is close to all of the amenities of the city! Would stay here again!

A win!

Wonderful ground floor experience, for a few friends to be together. Everything was provided making this trip super simple to pack clothes for and be comfortable. Very clean property and the beds were comfortable with fantastic sheets. The noise machines provided were used with gratitude. This spot had it all!

Great neighborhood, a little out of the way

Very nice, quiet neighborhood and property. Capitol is very close but that's about it. 10-15 min walk to train, 1 or 2 restaurants in walking distance, 1 corner market. So we had food delivered a few times. Comfortable space for our family of 4.

Amazing location, clean, responsive management

This property is in a great spot. The unit was very clean and welcoming. Two of the beds are very soft, the third bed and couch are firm. Kitchen had what we needed. Corner stores close by as well as some great restaurants: Nostra Cucina and Junction. We had a small maintenance issue and the management was very responsive and helpful. If there is someone in the upper unit you can easily hear walking around. If you are a light sleeper bring eye mask and ear plugs.

Ok for adults.

Three stars overall due mostly to the location & cleanliness. Two stars removed due to some false advertising & overall lack of warmth and concern for fact we were four adults with a toddler. What attracted us to this unit was seemingly friendliness to family with toddler. Not so. When I inquired about a high chair, pack ’n play etc. I was told that these were not offered & where did I get that idea? I sent a screen shot showing that these were offered in the advertisement. The response was that we could rent only the pack ’n play for 25 for the stay.One does not deal with the actual owners, but a service that they hire (City Sweet City). The unit was clean. It was in a prime location behind Capital & Supreme Court. Parking a vehicle was highly inconvenient. Not the fault of the owners. In DC you need to APPLY for a street parking permit. You have to list the make, model & plate number of the vehicle so you can print out the permit to set on the dashboard to street park without getting towed. IF you rent a vehicle as we did you don’t know this information until you pick up the vehicle. This required for us to search out a place where we could print out the parking permit. City Sweet City was not helpful. We were allowed to check in earlier after we asked that morning. Appreciated.Felt that our concerns having a toddler were sort of dismissed, but we were told to understand that a young family lived upstairs who might run around. They did. A LOT.

I think you should know the upstairs tenants were very loud.

I think you should know the upstairs tenants were very loud. Small children running, the sounds of moving furniture, etc. I stayed at this property last year and did not experience sounds this loud. Your team was very responsive to my questions prior to our stay and during.

Fabulous location! The location cannot be beaten!

Walking distance to the Capitol and the Mall. Download the Capitol Bike app and you will have inexpensive travel to all of DC's attractions. The four of us, two teen boys, husband and myself, stayed here. Our boys refuse to share a bed. One teen took a bedroom and the other took the couch/bed. My husband loved the mattress in the front bedroom, but it was a bit too hard for me. The bedrooms are spacious. The entire place is fresh and clean. Airconditioning worked well. Although it is a garden apartment, I never felt the place was too dark. They have bright lighting and natural lighting was nice. Check in was a breeze. Keyless entry was very convenient. I gave every category 5 stars except the overall rating. Why? Although it has everything you need this apartment lacks the extra niceties of a 5-star place. Some suggestions to lift this great place to 5-star: - A sitting/reading chair with a side table in each bedroom. When you want a quiet room while the tv is on your only choice is a bed to sit on. - Mirrors at average height eye level w/shelf in each bedroom. There is only one place do to your hair/makeup, the tiny bathroom. There was nowhere else I could blow dry and style my hair. One of the bedrooms had a mirror/shelf, but it was very small and it was on the wall so low it was useless. I'm 5'6". -Additional plates and supplies. There were 6 of everything, except when something had broken and not been replaced. I think there were only 5 plates, maybe it was bowls? - A set of plastic storage containers for leftovers. There were a few random storage containers of really odd sizes. When we cooked and had leftovers there really wasn't any good containers to store them in for the next meal. - New set of tongs. The supplied tongs were tiny and silicone tipped. There wasn't enough distance to keep me from getting burnt from snapping bacon grease and the silicone floppy tongs wouldn't grip the bacon. I wound up using a fork. -Wipes and a small vacuum. Being there for a week things get dirty and I wanted to clean up. There was a broom/dustpan, but those didn't work well when sweeping up bits of glass when a rootbeer bottle was dropped. I wished for Clorox wipes as well. -Dimmer switches. The canned lighting is SUPER bright. With the lights on it is as bright as NOON. It was hard to get my body ready to sleep with such bright lights. I longed for dimmer switches.
