About this property
Large studio close to metro in Eckington/Shaw
This private Studio apt is located in the heart of DC, close to everything DC has to offer, we are short 7-10min walk to the metro station and a 5min walk to over 10 restaurants within the area. It's a great spot for someone who just wants to enjoy the city for a few days. The unit is very warm and cozy and has a great gem of an outdoor space for enjoying the sites and sounds of the city. There is only street parking, however, you can park on either side of the street without restriction. The unit has a half kitchen, no stove but has a microwave and toaster oven for use. It has one full bath with a shower. Just 4 blocks from the Shaw/Howard U. Metro, this modern English basement apt., with high ceilings is a walkable spot to a gourmet grocery store, bars, restaurants, the Convention Center, and Chinatown. The home has exposed brick, just 5 metro stops to the White House, the Mall, and museums. The Shaw neighborhood is vibrant, constantly changing, and full of diversity and young people. 15 mins to Washington Hospital Center, Howard University Hospital, Children's Hospital, and VA Hospital Center. A great value with an experienced & DC-licensed host! I try to say hello at least once during the visit. In general, I give guests privacy unless there is a question. SLEEPS A MAXIMUM OF 2 ADULTS. Please feel free to ask questions.

Excellent place to stay, and Roydell was really personable and helpful, even offering to loan me an umbrella! The apartment is ideal for 1 or 2 people, with all the essentials and little extras like water and snacks. The neighborhood is nice, with many restaurants nearby. I’m looking for opportunities to stay here again as soon as possible. Love this place!
This property was more than I had even expected. The property is so so cute, got to meet the owner who helped with navigating DC and guiding us to the subway which was a way better way to travel to the monuments! Inside was cozy and extremely clean. There is a cute patio out back. There was a keurig for my caffeine addition which was a bonus. If we plan another DC trip, this will 100% be our stay over location.
The place was very nice and clean. The host communicates frequently about extra supplies needed or things you may need if the climate changes drastically from one day to the next.
This is an excellent place to stay. Close enough to Washington DC without being in the middle. Close to both airports (we flew into one and out of the other). Roydell was friendly, informative and very easy to deal with. The property was immaculate. Lovely comfortable bed. Well equipped kitchen. The Bathroom was the cleanest I've seen in a Vrbo property. I would definately stay here again and recommend it to everyone.
rather than staying in a small hotel room this was an amazing stay for two people. within walking distance to so many stores, restaurants and the monuments. it was clean, comfortable and overall and amazing experience.
We enjoyed our stay here so much! We can’t wait to come back!

The property was clean and comfortable. We felt very safe in the area. Check in and check out were extremely easy.
The host was always available if we needed him but luckily we had no issues. Would definitely stay again.
For never had been to DC before, I have to say we hit the jackpot with this VRBO. Located perfectly out of the way of the hustle of the city but close enough to Uber or rent a car to enjoy what the city has to offer.
Clean, spacious apartment within walking distance to restaurants and 20 minutes to all the sites. Owner was fantastic host! Would definitely recommend!
Great place to stay. Extremely clean, the host was friendly and accommodating , we were allowed to drop our luggage off early which was a plus. It was a little distance to the National Mall and museums but the metro busses were within a short walking distance. We would stay here again.
