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.

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.
The lovely table for eating at
These comfy chairs swivel and were great for reading, planning the day and watching TV
TV is on a swivel arm so can be watched from the bed or the chairs
Little shelving area with really useful leaflets - we used the map every morning.

The room is cold. When it’s 30 degree outside, the host asked me to rely on the space heater, instead of turning on the heat. He did turn on the heat after I reminded him of his legal obligation to do so. Please do not try those snacks, all of which expired.

Best VRBO Experience Ever!

This Studio is absolutely perfect for two people. It is furnished beautifully without being overdone and has everything you could possibly need. We were even provided bottled water and a basket of snacks. The linens were fresh and of great quality. The location for our event (wedding reception at Big Bear Cafe) was perfect. Roydell was a dream host, so welcoming and kind. The rate is very reasonable for the area, plus there is on-street parking. Wow! I highly recommend Roydell and this Studio!
