The staff is super friendly. The reviews led me to believe it was a much nicer hotel. There was significant construction going on and that created a lot of noise in the common areas like the lounge, and that was a real drag. The room is kind of worn out, with generally deteriorated surfaces, especially in the bath. The water pressure in the bathroom was really substandard. The bathroom wasn’t very clean. The only way to get a Coke or something in the evening is at the bar, which was kind of a drag. Coffee service in the morning means visiting the hostess stand in the restaurant and spending five bucks for a to go cup of just okay coffee. Felt like a ripoff. It’s in a good area with wonderful dining and entertainment options within walking distance. We walked to Chinatown, the National Portrait Gallery, and may excellent restaurants. Next time I visit I will spend a little more per night and stay in a nicer place. It’s not management’s fault, it’s just a worn out property—room finishes and plumbing, particularly.

I have mixed emotions about my stay here. I was greeted Friday 2/20/2026 by John who seemed to be a manager of some sort. He was very kind and even upgraded us to a suite with a balcony. I was very excited and appreciative but upon entering my room and giving a quick inspection I noticed a strange bug inside the shower. I was displeased and brought this to the attention of John, in which he simply said he’d list it in the report of the room. No food voucher, no offer to switch rooms, no type of compensation to justify what I had just witnessed in the shower. I believe something could’ve and should’ve been done to accommodate my guest and I, as I was charged a deposit for each night I stayed there. It was 60$ for the first night and 50$ for the second. I hope someone reaches out to me and does something about the issues I had here. Thank you.

Great hotel, in a great location. The staff are especially helpful. I had accidentally left my suitcase in the front lobby and a hotel employee by the name of Arvin ran me down as I was waiting for my uber to make sure I didn’t leave it!! So thoughtful and so nice!
