Checked in around 10 pm. Front desk lady wanted to charge me for parking as I wandered to get some food literally next door. Woke up to most disgusting bath tub where I had to place a towel inside so my feet would not touch the tub. There breakfast was literally in a brown paper bag

Worst possible place to stay!

This is more of a shelter for low-income families than a hotel. The front desk person reeked of marijuana and wanted an extra 40 dollars just to hand us the room key. Homeless people were loitering in the lobby and there was urine on the floor. The room smelled terrible. We left immediately.

Not for me

Elevator door wouldn’t open on 4th floor where my room was. Blankets had multiple stains on them and mattress was soiled. Ended up leaving about 30 minutes after checking in.

Hotel is very convenient to NIH, and the staff is great. But, they've let the condition of the property fall below what I'd consider adequate. The bathroom had a few plumbing issues, the room door was difficult to open, and the mattresses are at the end of their lives.
