Overall we enjoyed our stay at Banneker! It’s quite walkable to many things in DC and an easy pickup/drop off point for uber. The staff was friendly, accommodating and communicative. I loved being able to text for things we needed (except middle of the night better to call the front desk). Best espresso martini we had while in town at Le Sel. There are some things were nit picky about: room function was ok - not much of a view of anything; only one small nightstand, odd lighting throughout the room. The bathroom lighting was awful. No shelves in the shower to place your toiletries. Housekeeping was super loud in the morning which is a pet peeve. Restaurant hours were limited but food and drink were good. All in all a good place to stay but could use some functional improvements.

We loved the room setup - very functional and spacious layout. The amenities are nice, and the little touches like hot apple cider were great. Very nice gym for a hotel. Central, walkable location, and being around the corner from a Whole Foods and having a little fridge in the room made eating healthy while traveling that much easier. My only complaint - we were on the third floor on the front side of the building facing 16th, and the traffic noise was VERY loud. We kept thinking a window must be open because of how much we could hear on the street. We got used to it eventually, and I slept fine, but it's worth noting if you're sensitive to noise.

Really nice hotel. Expensive. Staff was great. Free coffee in the morning. Free hot cider in the evening. Has a rooftop bar but there was a private party the night I stayed here. I hear it’s great though.
