Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the entire unit, it is not shared.
There is a family living upstairs. Please note that the everyday sounds and noises of family life (footsteps, stairs, kids playing, etc.) can be heard in both directions. You will undoubtedly hear them (and they will hear you) as they go about their everyday life.
The Neighborhood:
16th St heights is hugely popular with families as it is residential but has great access to downtown. The incredible hiking, walking/running, and biking trails in Rock creek park are JUST 3 blocks away.Fun facts about the neighborhood; Lincoln's Cottage (off of Rock Creek Church Road), where President Lincoln used to vacation when he wanted to get away from the city, is one of this neighborhood’s hidden gems. The nearby Rock Creek Cemetery dates back to 1712; both the Cemetery and the Armed Forces Retirement Home are on the National Register of Historic Places. The Fitzgerald Tennis Center is just a short stroll away.
Getting Around:
We are nestled between two metro stations (1 mile away Georgia Ave-Petworth - green and yellow lines, and Fort Totten metro, where you can catch the red line). Our neighborhood is full of transportation options! We`re a 20 minute drive from the White House (Uber rides are plentiful in the area), but there are buses that can take you directly to the National Mall in 35/40 minutes.
There is a bus stop 1 minute away from the home that can take you to Metro Center Station (red line). From there you're just 3 stops from Union Station,which is nestled among the major sights, including the U.S. Capitol Building, the Smithsonian Museums, and the National Mall.
Bus lines in the immediate vicinity (70/79/52/54 within two blocks). The S2 or S4 bus can have guests on the White House steps in half an hour.
Uber and Lyft taxi`s are plentiful in the area as well (and we provide coupon codes to take $$ off)!

Summary: This is a basement apartment with access from the back/side yard of the house. Yes, you will hear occasional footsteps above you, but only for brief periods now and then. If that is going to bother you, then it's probably not for you. That being said, once inside it feels nothing like a basement apartment; it looks and feels like a spacious one-bedroom condo. The entrance to this unit perfectly captures Frank Lloyd Wright's concept of "compression and release." The owners also have an attic-level rental if that is more to your liking. Owners couldn't have been nicer, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. They really went above and beyond. One thing that I always hope for in rentals is that they will at least have some basic necessary things, like salt & pepper, paper towels, dish soap, laundry detergent, a coffee maker with filters or a Keurig and at least enough coffee for the first morning, etc. If I have to go buy all of those items for a two or three day stay, I'm not happy. I'd rather just be in a hotel. This apartment had all of those things and more. All I needed to do was pick up some groceries. That's what I expect, and this apartment met or exceeded my expectations in every way.
