Beautiful Hotel in Georgetown, close to many restaurants and cafes, about a 25 min walk to Lincoln Memorial. The staff was very sweet and welcoming, the rooms are a little dated, but clean, and the bed was very comfortable and the sheets were clean and crisp white. The only downside is that the walls seem to be thin and you can kind of hear the noises coming from the hallway and the rooms close to yours.

Great location for the purpose of our visit. The front desk personnel were very friendly and welcoming at check-in. The room itself was dark, the furniture being black, and dark blue wallpaper. It was difficult to see in the closet as the lighting in that corner was poor. The bed was comfortable and snuggly. There is a nice little market just next door to purchase a quick breakfast or afternoon/bedtime snacks. The Melrose is a nice place to stay.
