Quiet, clean, good value
Went for concerts at The National, which is a very short and convenient walk. Well-insulated room allowed for super-quiet stay. Comfortable bed, but could use sheets of more substantial weight. Good value. Would stay again.

Huge suites, friendly staff. Room amenities a bit lacking: no glass drinking glasses or ceramic coffee mugs; no shower caps, or bathroom sundries. Comfy beds and nice furnishings.

Love this place
Loved this hotel! The perfect combo of efficiency and cleanliness. A really warm and friendly staff. Food is great at the restaurant. Has a bit of an artsy vibe in the hallways which I loved. Rooms are spacious. Would recommend!
