There is a family living upstairs. Please note that the everyday sounds and noises of family life (footsteps, stairs, kids playing, etc.) can be heard in both directions. You will undoubtedly hear them (and they will hear you) as they go about their everyday life.

The Neighborhood:
You can't choose a better location - the quiet street is easy walking distance to the bustling H St Corridor and NoMa and boasts a 95% "Walk Score" which deems us a "walkers paradise" from a reputable source!  Guests can stroll to the United States Capitol Building in over 30 minutes, and stroll to the hub of the major sights - Union Station - in 20. 

The food mecca that is Union Market is also within walking distance, not to be missed! Also there's some great shopping opportunities with lots of new pop-up stores around the entrepreneurial Union Market scene, REI's flagship store and all the shopping inside Union Station. You are also just a short stroll from the most popular bars and restaurants in the city. From live music, comedy, improv, and stage plays, those interested in the arts or just looking to see something new will not be disappointed!

Getting Around:
No need for a car, you can walk or metro to everything. Nearby Uber and Lyft rides are plentiful (and we provide coupon codes for both services) as well as Capital Bikeshares / Jump (Uber`s scooter and bike service) surrounding the neighborhood - bike the monuments for a cinematic experience unlike any other!

NoMa-Gallaudet U New York Ave Station is a 7 minute stroll from the apartment, where you can hop on the red line metro, that can whisk you all over the city!

Lovely apartment and convenient location
Beautiful apartment; clean and comfy for two of us. The location was convenient to the NoMa Metro station and there were plenty of restaurants within walking distance, as well as a couple of grocery stores where we could pick up the few items we needed. (We did not want to bother with renting a car.) Many of the restaurants and grocery stores were the opposite direction from the Metro station relative to the apartment, which was a little inconvenient once I developed blisters on my feet. But they were still handy, and the neighborhood is very pedestrian friendly, with lots of people (even with kids and dogs) out and about. The apartment is lovely, in great shape, nice and clean, and well appointed. We appreciated having the washer and dryer in the apartment, and it was great that the host even provided laundry soap. We would recommend this property.
