The room was very clean and the bed was super comfortable. The staff was friendly and I liked the convenience of having Starbucks onsite.

Such a great location for visiting DC! Great walkable area with access to the Metro. Clean hotel & very comfortable bed to rest our weary feet after a long day of exploring. The hotel itself may be just a smidge outdated, but they haven’t ignored the parts that really count like cleanliness & bed quality. The shuttle drivers to/from the airport were excellent, so friendly & VERY helpful! I also loved the neighborhood!
