Heater not working, no hot water
Extremely bad experience. Heater wasn't working in the room. They came to check it at 11:30 PM at night and then spent an hour working on it, at which point we had to choose to just sleep in the cold. It took ~30 minutes of using the bathroom for the water to finally start turning a little warm, and then it ended there.

Very comfortable, quiet and clean. Wonderful restaurant and excellent staff as well. The only downside is there are some small upgrades needed (e.g., a few chipped tiles here and there). Nothing serious though. A big plus is that this hotel is a free shuttle stop for National Institutes of Health. Very convenient for those receiving outpatient care at NIH.

I absolutely love the hotel! I worked there when it was the stirrup lounge in the 80s for five years and I ran into two staff members that were still there Ruben and Zorbin Who made my night so special when i arrived! However, expedia did not post that there was going to be construction on the parking lot and no water or air conditioning available during the whole day on Wednesday that we were planning to relax by the pool. there was no AC and we had to get ready for an event so I asked the front desk to give me a refund and let me leave the property because I could not take the heat and we didn’t have water the whole entire day ! So instead of offering free bottles of water and free parking since they were redoing the parking, they charged an extra $20 for parking and I had to go and buy big bottles of water and fans from CVS . Finally, i was able to get at least 1/2 of my money back after discussing this with two staff members at the front desk, who were not pleasant at all, and we’re not trying to assist and kept blaming the fact that I booked through a third-party! Too bad for me that I didn’t know prior to coming there that they were going to have these issues I’m not willing to pay $250 a night where I can’t use a pool, have water or air conditioning for an entire day, hot tar trucks all overThey should’ve offered a lot more to ease the pain I was going there to have a mini vacation away from my home and I couldn’t enjoy myself and the staff didn’t make it better.
