Brookland-CUA: DC Within Your Reach

Brookland is a great place to base your stay in Washington. We are a family-friendly neighborhood with great cafes, restaurants and quick and easy access to the DC Metro system as well as the Metropolitan Branch Trail for walking/running. Each season in DC is unique and we are in the perfect location to enjoy the best of area. Whether you drive here (there's free parking) or ride public transportation, we think that Brookland is a great home away from home. You would be renting our newly remodeled basement apartment. This is an above-ground apartment with a separate entry/exit. It started out as a project to welcome our friends and families and, having traveled with Airbnb ourselves, we wanted to welcome Airbnb guests in too! The room features a full size bed and the living room (a separate space) has a full size futon. The dining area features a table for 4, dishes, cups, and an electronic kettle. We also have a mini-fridge and microwave. As fellow Airbnb travelers, we try to make it a place that WE would love to visit. This is also a perfect apartment for a long-term visit to DC (conferences, school programs) because of the great access to most of DC. The apartment has a living room and bedroom space as well as a small dining area. You will have access to a coffee maker, a small fridge and cups and dishes (think: like in a nice hotel!) The bathroom is outfitted with basic necessities as well as a hair blowdryer. The living room has a full-size futon. You're also welcome to sit out on our spacious backyard. The listed price is for 2 guests. Up to 2 additional guests are welcome for a $20 fee each. If the apartment is available earlier than check-in time, we are happy to notify you and work with you to get settled in! While we can't promise to be on-call, we are happy to share DC tips and tricks to make your stay easier. Easy access to metro- be Downtown in less than 30 minutes by bus and less than 20 by Metro. Quiet place to relax, but walking distance to cafes, the Basilica of the National Shrine, and awesome pizza (Menomale)! We are walking distance to Catholic University and a short bus ride or drive to Washington Hospital Center, Children's National, and the National Rehabilitation Center. We are walking distance to Brookland-CUA metro which is on the red line and connects to both downtown DC and to the Yellow, Blue, Orange, and Silver Lines for trips to MD or VA. If you prefer, there are 2 bus lines that can connect to the Metro system and 1 which goes to Downtown DC in about 30-40 minutes. We will be happy to provide you with directions. If you do rent a car, there is plenty of street parking or you can park right in front of the apartment. There is also a bike share at Brookland Metro and you're able to get downtown via the Metropolitan Branch Trail. We cannot accept pets at this time. There is a $25 cleaning fee.
