The bed wasn't great. You should be able to flop on it and not feel like you just fell on concrete. The thermostat/heat was broken. It was 81 in the room. Their fix was just to open the windows and then the windows weren't operable. We had to have a Maintenance man come up. I could go on but I was only there one night so not going to hammer to bad.

Tucked in a quiet part of Georgetown, this hotel is super clean and has a lounge to chill pre- and post-check out. There are nice restaurants and cafés around, like Tatte's Bakery and Pisco y Nazca Ceviche Gastrobar. I highly recommend it, and I would stay again. The metro is close by, as are bus stops.

Our room was more spacious than expected and cleaned everyday. The hotel is located in a convenient location close to grocery stores and many restaurants. The only negative experience we had was that the key card to get into our rooms had to be activated every day . But overall would highly recommend a stay here.

Great location for the main sights of Washington. All walkable - 1 - 2 miles. AirCon played up a couple of times, which we see from reviews is recurring. Expensive to park at hotel - much cheaper options within a few mins walk.

Stay was average.
Check in was good. Staff was polite and helpful. The room was clean, but the walls are very thin and you could hear everything. Additionally, when I turned the air on all it did was pump hot air out.

So the property looks nice and the photos online. But when in person you can see it's a cheap and Hasty renovation. The windows leaked air, the door separating our room from the other room had a broken lock on it, no trash bags and the heating and air conditioning system could only be one or the other. Other than that the place was decent nicely priced good area and was clean in the beds were comfortable and the staff was nice.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was clean and staff were friendly. Location decent. But the room was small and outlets were not in convenient locations. Also, there was not really a place to sit and do work. There was a chair and just like a ledge under the big TV, so if you sat there, the screen is inches from your face. But what upset me most was there was no AC when it was 80 degrees. We were told it had been turned off for the season when the lobby had AC! In a day and age when weather is so all over the place, you need to be able to offer AC whenever it's needed!

When we arrived they explained that they were switching from AC to heat and that we had neither. We left the AC fan on and it helped a little bit (no AC)when we returned from being out all day they had turned the heat on and it was 86° in our room!!! Yuck!! We were able to open a window about 2 inches to help.
