About this property
An English Gem in Bloomingdale, NW, 9 blocks from Union Station@NOMA on red line
This is a 2 bedroom English Basement Apartment. Bedrooms are comfortable. It is private, clean, & safe place to crash for a night or two. There is a queen size bed in master bedroom and a twin size memory foam bed in the other bedroom plus a twin size sofa. The additional bed is an IKEA twin size sofa bed in the living room. If you are looking for an authentic experience, you will enjoy my home in NW neighborhood, Bloomingdale! It is so trendy these days. Come and experience it! Many new and exciting restaurants to try just meters away! Should you drive, you may use my visitor's pass, if it is available.

Why they chose this property
This is my second home. I lived in it for 4 years. It is located in Bloomingdale, NW, DC, in one of the most sought after communities in the area. The homes in this neighborhood are gorgeous and stately Victorians. I no longer live here and offer it to budget travelers visiting our Nation's Capital.
What makes this property unique
The real benefit of staying in my home is that it is safe, clean, central, and very affordable for budgeted travelers.
