We absolutely loved this home! The basement apartment feels like a full home, it is well appointed with two comfortable beds, a great living room/kitchen area and dining space. The hosts are attentive and caring, the space is immaculate. The property offers easy access to navigating surrounding historical Mount Pleasant, the National Zoo both walkable from the property; and downtown DC by car. We enjoyed the host's recommendations for outstanding local restaurants and activities. Come enjoy this lovely space and the local cusine.

Ying was an incredibly helpful, communicative, and kind host. We spent 4 nights in the apartment and enjoyed the comfortable accommodations and amenities like the washer/dryer and full kitchen. Mt. Pleasant is a lovely community with a farmers' market and friendly neighbors. We had never been to DC before, so we didn't expect to be a 15–20-minute drive from the museums but getting around was very easy with a short walk to busses and train.

About the host

Hosted by Ying Lam

Host profile image
My husband and I have lived in DC since we were married 30 years ago. We love traveling and enjoyed home-stays when we travel with the family. We learned over the years of traveling around the world that having comfortable beds, linens and my own kitchen are essential when we are away from home. For that reason, we strive to offer comfortable mattress, high quality linens and a well equipped kitchen for our guests.

Why they chose this property

We've lived in the historic Mt Pleasant for 30 years. Our children growing up enjoy having walking access to the Zoo and the Rockcreek National Park like our backyard. You'll find this community a safe, peaceful and hip place for of family with kids, dogs as well as young people from students to professionals of all trades.

What makes this property unique

Most of the offerings in the neighborhood are basement level apartments. Ours is one-of-a-kind, because it has a legal Certificate of Occupancy. This means the apartment has legal ceiling height and meet all the current building codes. It's twice as spacious as most of the apartments in Mt Pleasant or in DC, because it contains 2 full stories. You will find yourself in a "real" apartment" unlike any garden level unit.
