COZY CONFINES NEAR GEORGETOWN and NATIONAL CATHEDRAL --PERFECT FOR FAMILIES

Enjoy the best of Washington's neighborhoods in the shadow of the National Cathedral, a sun-filled English basement along tree-lined, safe and quiet streets, steps from cafes, bars, boutiques, gyms, national parks and supermarkets as well as easy access to Georgetown, Embassy Row, DuPont Circle, American, George Washington and Georgetown Universities, the White House, the Mall and monuments. It is a soft place to land after a vigorous day of Washington sight-seeing.
Cathedral Blessings was designed for comfort. It opens to a living/dining area equipped with stuffed sofa and chairs and a 50-inch high-def TV. WIFI and Netflix are complimentary. The kitchen is fully equipped and stocked with Keurig coffee pot and pods, cookware, utensils and dinnerware. Two bedrooms contain queen beds and large closets, with a sofabed in the living room and an inflatable mattress available for extra members of the family. The apartment opens to a back yard and garden with a deck, cushy patio furniture, gas grill and a cherry blossom tree in bloom in April.
The apartment is a calm getaway from the hustle-bustle of official Washington. You're more likely to run into dog walkers and baby carriages than a U.S. Senator. The National Cathedral and its lovely gardens are two blocks away. So are the trails of Glover Archibold Park frequented by hikers and joggers. Two blocks in the other direction is Wisconsin Av., one of Washington's storied thoroughfares, lined with great eateries--Tex-Mex, French, Indian, Chinese, Uighur, Spanish Tapas, Vietnamese, Italian, Japanese and American--hot watering holes, Giant Foods, yoga studios. gyms, liquor stores, boutiques and pharmacies.
The apartment is less than two blocks from a major bus hub with tentacles throughout DC and 1.5 miles from Metro subway stations. Either form of trans;portation gets you to the National Mall in 20-30 minutes, depending on time of day.
Our family lives above the house upstairs and available at all times to enhance your comfort and help you navigate Washington sights and pleasures. Rebekah is a professional singer who ocassionally gives voice lessons during the day and early evening hours, so that space isn't sound proof.
During your stay at this apartment building, you're just a quick walk from Washington National Cathedral. The apartment includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.
  • Air-conditioned apartment with kitchen, washing machine, and patio
  • Free WiFi
  • Onsite recreation includes a playground
  • Just a 5-minute drive from George Washington University and a few minutes from Embassy Row
This apartment offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Washington apartment is smoke free.

Excellent location - excellent property!
This property is exactly as listed. Very clean and had everything we needed and far more. Having a parking pass for our car was so helpful, especially since we were visiting people in that same zone. Always found a spot within the block. Neighborhood felt very safe. Keep in mind it is a basement apartment so you will hear some footsteps like any apartment - but never late in evening! The stairwell down to the door is exactly as pictured so this is not for someone who can not do stairs with suitcases. It was no problem for us. We will use this site again when we return to town.

Deception
The steep dirty steps (20 or so) into the basement wasn’t mentioned. The peering in the front door by Michael and having to ask for the outdoor space to be available wasn’t nice. Furniture needs cleaning or replaced.

Everything was wonderful except the apartment has steep stairs to get to. We are all over 50 and getting our luggage and groceries was a little difficult. The yard was under construction so we weren't able to sit outside and enjoy the weather. The place itself was clean, efficient and very comfortable. Water was always hot considering there were 5 women taking showers. :) Definitely a 4 star but 5 star if the yard was available. Thank you.

Spring DC vacation
We enjoyed our vacation in DC with the stay at this property. All four adults had a great time and were very comfortable in the unit. There are a number of nice restaurants within walking distance and the bus depot was convenient and made getting downtown real easy. We look forward to coming back to DC in the future and would definitely like to stay here again.

DC Spring Break
It is as it is shown in the pictures. One negative was that the upstairs is under renovations and so the debris was in the backyard. I was under the impression we could use the backyard but that was not possible. Other than that it was as expected.

Economical, fairly easy access to tourist sights, nice neighborhood
The property was what we expected based on the listing and other reviews. The owner responded to questions promptly and was willing to accommodate us for an early check-in since our flight arrived early. The Metrobus stop was an easy 2-block walk and along the bus route to the mall were various spots to eat and a couple of grocery stores. The accommodations were comfortable and gave us more room at a better price than staying at a hotel.

Comfortable stay in Cathedral Heights
Comfortable apartment in a quiet, walkable neighborhood that is close to everything. Everything is a 15 minute walk or drive from this location. Grocery stores, pharmacy, shops and restaurants are less than 15 minute walk. The mall, the monuments, the zoo all 15 minutes car-ride or less. Easy access to public transportation, and the National Cathedral is practically across the street. The apartment was comfortable, easily accessed and clean and communication with the host was simple and straightforward.

We loved the location of this property.

Excellent location!
This property is in a great location. The neighborhood is quiet, and a perfect place to decompress after a day of sightseeing. The host provided us with a parking pass for the week, and we were able to park directly in front of the property. There are bus stops within a 5 minute walk of the property, and we were able to leave our car for the week and get around completely using public transportation. The rest of the neighborhood is great, with shops and restaurants nearby. The apartment was clean, with great water pressure and all necessary amenities. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Great location
This property is located in a nice part of town close to the Cathedral and several very good restaurants. A bus stop was a few blocks away, and the Metro was only a 10 minutes drive. The parking pass was good for a very large area in Northwest Washington and allowed us to park for free near the Metro.

Good Location, Excellent Hosts
Originally we had booked this space for our son, wife and two toddlers, but ended up using it for ourselves, a couple, as they were unable to visit. Consequently, 2 bedrooms were not needed. The basement unit was well located and quiet. Street parking was a bonus, as we had a car. The owner and family, who live above this basement suite were very responsive, accommodating and friendly. We did not eat any meals there, but the kitchen is well equipped and modern. Our only “complaint”, was that the furniture was uncomfortable and saggy, making it difficult to sit in for an hour at a time. Accessibility to the back garden would definitely be a plus in the warmer months.

Perfect Pad for D.C. Touring
Daughter and I stayed for 7 nights. Located 2 blocks from National Cathedral in downstairs of 1920's Era house in well heeled and historical neighborhood. Super easy access to metro transit and minutes from the subway. Kitchen ideally supplied with utensils. Large 4k TV with basic digital OTA programming and internet TV. Can stream from TV. Two super comfy beds with a hideaway couch bed in living room. Keep in mind pad is in basement section of house so if you're looking for a view you're not gonna have one. Overall a very great experience. Beats any new 5 over 1 plasticy condo or hotel!
