Perfectly located if you're keen to visit the baseball stadium, the zoo or the Capitol, this smart apartment is a great base for a small family or a handful of friends. It's close to Washington Navy Yard, one of the area's oldest neighbourhoods, and from here you can easily get around the whole city. In the heart of Barracks Row, you approach this fine-looking redbrick building through a wrought-iron gate and past pretty gardens. In keeping with the period houses surrounding it, but boasting modern, black-framed windows, it's a striking place to stay. Once inside, find your apartment door and unpack. It's a bright and modern space, with minimal furniture and a few design treats in store – mismatched vintage chairs at the dining table, a four-poster bed and half a blue bedroom wall, to name a few. There are great places to eat and drink nearby, and it's a lovely, walkable area for families.
