Super staff and rooms. The only issue is the loud AC noise, which becomes very disturbing when it stops and starts with a loud thud at night. I will recommend this, particularly the suites are very comfortable.

The staff was great. We needed to check in early which they accommodated, though at the steep price of $200. The room was nice. I wish the showers had a little more power. They are very pet friendly, more so than at any hotel I’ve ever stay. The metro is a quick 5 min walk away and there are plenty of store and restaurants around. Best of all…no national guard ruining your view if such a beautiful city. This will def be my new go-to for stays in DC.
