Some friends and I stayed at Hotel Zena for three nights while visiting DC for a bachelor party. The hotel was in the perfect area - not only close to the monuments and the White House but also bars and restaurants. The room was clean and inviting. The staff was helpful and friendly. The rooftop pool was clean and well maintained. I would definitely stay at Hotel Zena again.
