Why share when you can have your own private apartment in Washington DC? Why stay in a hotel room? Rent our apartment - it's wonderful turn of the century totally private, free standing Carriage House that has been fully updated.

The sunny 2nd floor studio apartment features a full bathroom stocked with fluffy towels, washcloths, body wash, shampoo and conditioner, ceiling fan, armoire and dresser, couch and coffee table, end tables with lamps, skylights, central heat/AC, full size brand new washer and dryer, iron, hair dryer, WiFi, desk with a brand new flatscreeen TV hooked up to a new PC computer workstation & stereo with Ipod hookup.

We also have a small kitchenette stocked with coffee, tea, coffee maker, microwave, fridge, dishes, silverware, glasses, and picnic supplies.

There is a real queen sized bed that sleeps two and a pull out couch that sleeps two more. Multiple sets of brand new 600 thread count sheets and duvet covers will ensure that you sleep comfortably.

Entrance to the apartment is through an outside courtyard shared with the main house, and we have a self check in process for total privacy. If you want to bring your bike, there is plenty of storage in the downstairs garage area, or you can try the new Capitol BikeShare system just one block away.

Great location with a Walkscore of 85 and a TransitScore of 92 (Riders Paradise). Centrally located in downtown DC, just steps (.1 mile/.15km)from the south entrance of the Shaw station on Green and Yellow Metro lines. Very centrally located with tons of transportation options - steps to Green/Yellow Metro, many Zipcars close by, new Capitol Bike Share Stations nearby, bike lanes on 5th, R & Q streets, Buses (G2-Bus to Georgetown, 70 Bus lines, Circulator), easy highway acccess to the 395 tunnel. 5 stops on the Metro to Nationals BallPark; 8 stops to DCA/Reagan National Airport.

Less than a mile to many downtown attractions - National Portrait Gallery, Chinatown/Verizon Center, U Street, 9:30 Club, Washington Convention Center (many of our guests have been convention attendees). 1.5 miles to the Capitol Building, White House & National Mall. 5 minute walk to many restaurants and bars which are detailed on our check in sheet. Also close by are the Kennedy Recreation Center and 24 hour Safeway Food Store.

On street parking is plentiful in the neighborhood within a 1/2 block of the apartment and we can get you a parking pass if you have a car and plan on staying for a while. Parking restrictions are only in force from 9-8 Monday through Friday so if you are staying for a weekend don't worry about a parking pass.

  • The carriage house is clean, spacious, and equipped with endless amenities - computer, TV, iPod player, hairdryer, washing machine, first aid kit, coffee maker, plates & cutlery - to make it a very enjoyable stay. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom had an excellent shower. It's very close to a metro stop, and we loved a nearby restaurant called Bistro Bohem (along 6th st) Only small issues would be the slow wireless internet, and the skylights can wake you up quite early.

  • The place was conveniently located and the checklist sent to me before my trip was super helpful in finding our way to the carriage house. <its only a short 15 min walk to U street. Great place, totally private and very well equipped with all the stuff u may need like kettle, brochures. All in all, a delightful place!

  • Our family of 3 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Carriage House. It had all of the comforts of home and was convenient to seeing the downtown sights in DC. Thanks!

  • We had a great stay at the carriage house. Clean, quiet and very well organized hosts.

  • A really unique and private place. The location near the metro is perfect. The information package was quite complete. It was very clean. Really nice vacation in Washington for us.

    Great space. . . clean, good light, thoughtful touches (like a washer and dryer; so helpful!). The short, easy walk to the Metro made the whole city available to us, while experiencing the charm of a vibrant neighborhood, rather than a sterile hotel. Thank you!

  • Nice space. A bit complicated to find, but the Remuzzi Brothers sent really, really good instructions along with recommendations on local restaurants and cafes. Other highlights are: excellent wifi, quiet neighborhood and clean space.

  • Good location, not in the middle of everything, but the Metro station is close by and it's only a few stops to get to all the attractions and lots of nice places to eat. It was easy to get into, the instructions sent by the Brothers before our stay were comprehensive and easy to follow. The bed was comfy. The fold out bed was big and easy to use, but perhaps a bit hard to sleep on for an extended stay. Everything was clean and organised. I'd suggest leaving your bags downstairs as the stairs felt a bit steep.

  • This was my first experience using Air BnB. I heard about the site on NPR just as I was planning a sightseeing trip to DC. The carriage house provided excellent accommodations for me and my son for our trip to DC. The place was clean and comfortable and provided excellent access to Metro transit and a capital bike share station. Just as advertised. We enjoyed the quiet, privacy and convenient location. I would definately stay here again or recommend it to others.

  • A nice and clean place to stay fairly close to the centre of DC. If you're not up for the walk downtown the metro is literally a stones throw away. Definently worth the price anytime!
