We did not arrive to a clean, modern, boutique hotel as indicated on the photos. The room was rundown and in need of renovations. There was a musty smell and the furniture was old and dilapidated.

Awesome stay there to roam Washington DC with my family and parents. Staffs were great and parking is just backside of the facility. It has kitchen and utensils so no need to carry anything if you are planing to stay there for longer and cook by yourself. Across the road there is grocery shop and you will get everything what you need including bouquets, wine beers and all food items. Awesome place.
