Awesome Location
My only warning to others is that the bathroom is located by walking through the small bedroom area where the single bed is located. It is fine for families and friends who don't mind the intrusion by others. But if you are with those whom can't be disturbed to get to the bathroom, this may not work for you.

A week’s stay on independence ave.
Our place was in a nice neighborhood with easy walking access to restaurants and grocery stores. It was very clean and the decor was warm and traditional. Being a below ground level apartment it was a bit dark and only had one small operable window in the bathroom. At night it was uncomfortably warm. The host was friendly and enthusiastic however at times it was difficult to get a response from her in a timely fashion.

We had a great time staying here. The location was perfect for us to go to a baseball game and to explore the Smithsonians and the Capitol. Christie was very accomodating for us. The place was clean and exactly what we needed.

Charming apartment in a fantastic central location
We are a family of four and we stayed in this lovely apartment for three nights. The location was perfect, a beautiful, peaceful area but within walking distance of all the main sights. There are lots of restaurants within a 5 minute walk and also some grocery shops nearby. The apartment itself is beautifully decorated and very welcoming. Communication with the owner was excellent and the additional bed we requested was set up and ready for us upon our arrival. We loved our stay here and would be very happy to stay again if we come back to Washington.

Capitol Hill Apartment
The property was as expected. Lovely location, in/out as expected. Dishes and silverware were not clean. I killed several ants in the bathroom that came out from under the vanity. Biggest negative was the gold coffee pot basket which was coated inside with old coffee grounds and a thick layer of mold. I didn’t wash it and didn’t use it so you could see for yourself what I observed. I would stay again but not without assurances that it was cleaner than this time. The queen mattress was not very firm and seemed not to be level, but it may have been the floor. But still a charming place. Needs a little love.

Location, location, location!
Amazing location, just a few minutes’ walk to Capitol / Library of Congress / Supreme Court! My kids were thrilled with all we could see and do. Very quick walk to Trader Joe’s and Eastern Market, so easy to grab food for meals. Apartment was clean and well maintained. It’s very small and all of the rooms connect, so there’s not a lot of privacy (e.g. you have to walk through the main bedroom and the small converted walk-in / second bedroom to get into the bathroom), but it worked out fine and the price was right. The owner is super responsive, friendly, and helpful! Street parking was easy to find and a visitor’s permit is provided.

Family DC trip
Christie’s place in Capitol Hill is wonderful! Very clean and nicely decorated. Location can’t be beat and host was very responsive. Only thing I wish was more of a description of the rooms. One room was a converted porch, which worked for my 11yr old but definitely got a bit chilly at night. He didn’t mind since he had his own space. Overall I highly recommend this rental!

Excellent location, perfect for my family of 4. the kitchen is a bit tight and you have to go through one of the bedrooms to get to the bathroom but those were both more than made up for by the location and convenience. The place had everything we needed.

Wonderful Stay
Lovely property in a beautiful neighborhood, just a couple blocks from the US Capitol. We parked the car when we arrived and never had to drive anywhere again. All of the sites we wanted to visit were within a reasonable walking distance. Christie was a wonderful host who checked in with us and made sure we had everything we needed. She was also very responsive to any questions we had. If you're wanting to visit all of the sites around the US Capitol area (Smithsonian museums, White House, US Capitol, all the monuments at the National Mall, etc.) this is a perfect place to stay. Thank you for everything Christie!

Great location!
We took a quick trip to DC with family who were visiting from South-Africa and this location was absolutely perfect! It is close enough to walk (or a short ride share) to everything you would want to see in Washington DC and only blocks away from a bunch of restaurants. Christie was awesome and let us check in early to drop off our luggage, since we didn't rent a car. All was as advertised. We will definitely stay there again.

Highly Walkable Capitol Location
Excellent stay in a cozy, charming apartment! My daughter and I were able to walk virtually everywhere, which was a wonderful bonus. We toured the White House, the Capitol, the Library of Congress, visited many of the museums on the Mall, and our home away from home was a lovely place to relax in at the end of the day. The United States Botanical Gardens were a stroll away as well. Christie was an excellent host, responsive and friendly. Street parking was a breeze. Great location for anyone wanting to have walking access to some of Washington DC’s most iconic sites.
