Check-in was very smooth, and staff was courteous. Housekeeping cleaned the room daily. Dining room was conveniently located on the first floor. Checking out was convenient - By providing my email address, I did not need to stand in line, and my statement (folio) was emailed to me at home.

Only issue is that the area around the pool was being worked on so it wasn’t a nice look-I’m sure that will be done soon. It didn’t hamper our experience!

Great experience!
This hotel is perfect for tourists in DC - the location is excellent and close to transportation options, the neighborhood is completely walkable (and safe) with plenty of dining options after a long day visiting DC sights. Friendly staff and a large, comfortable room made it a great experience for me and my adult daughter taking a short girls' trip!

Very nice hotel with spacious rooms, nice aesthetic. Only two minor quibbles - the sliding door in our room was rather hard to slide back and forth and the sink drain was rather slow. Otherwise the room was great. Very convenient to lots of interesting places to eat (didn't get a chance to eat at the hotel's restaurant) and Metro only a few minutes away.
