Great location. Clean room. Not the most comfortable bed, and there were few amenities on the property, but the price was reasonalbe and it felt safe.
3-night trip

10/10

Family trip to DC. Great location. Overall, perfect for our needs- clean & comfortable place to come back to after a long day of sightseeing. We had water pressure issue in our room, but the front desk quickly switched us to another room. Coffee is available in the lobby in the morning.

The rooms are nice and clean, the staff was absolutely amazing, energetic, and helpful if we needed anything. The tub was very slippery, with no grips on the surface.

I’m a repeat customer of the hotel and will keep coming back just to see Sunny. She’s the best and always takes well care of her customer’s needs. A warm thank you to Sunny from Florida.

It was perfect for a single person who needs a place to keep their belongings and a safe place to sleep.

Chill quiet spot. Love all the hardwood!!
3-night trip

6/10

Best value but you make trade-offs. The walls are paper thin and as a single person the chain lock does NOT cut it.
1-night trip

6/10

Generally good with bed comfortable but would have benefitted with a couple of softer pillows. The room was clean but a little claustrophobic with the window being only inches away from the next building. The location was good being close to the Whitehouse.

10/10

First of all let me say that for the price this is the best place to stay. The rooms are small it is a older hotel but the architecture and the location are absolutely fantastic. The dining around the area is wonderful transportation by Metro is fantastic had no problems whatsoever. Will definitely stay again.

Great and cozy in an older setting. Comfortable rooms with just the right size, and very clean and comfy for quick stays. The concierge team was invaluable and polite, and the location is near the city center, within walking distance of the Metro.

Very good location for the price. Clean room with a lot of towels provided. One minus was the loud AC that kept a creaky noise and bed was not the most comfortable. Very nice stay overall, recommend!

Dark little room, window looking at brick wall 5 inches away.

Loved it!!
2-night trip

8/10

A decent hotel in an amazing location. Room was good-sized and bathroom was huge. Both were spotless. Shower had ample hot water. The air conditioner vacillated between too hot and too cold. I'm glad the hotel had spare blankets!
1-night trip

8/10

The location is fantastic, as it is very close to the White House. It would be, however, much greater experience, if there is a coffee maker in a room. It was very inconvenient to go down to the 1st floor from the 9th floor to get muddy string coffee every morning.
