The guest experience

8.9out of 10
911 verified reviews

Loved most

  • Excellent central location near National Mall and major attractions
  • Friendly and welcoming staff (quick check-in, helpful front desk)
  • Spacious, clean rooms often with functional kitchen/kitchenette
  • Complimentary drinks (coffee, tea, lemonade) and snacks available in lobby

Worth knowing — No included breakfast · Expensive hotel parking / issues with parking assistance · Thin walls and noise (loud housekeeping, neighborhood noise) · Some rooms have poor rear views; occasional AC/ventilation concerns

How guests scored the stay

  • Location9.6

    Repeatedly praised as excellent — within walking distance of the National Mall, White House and main attractions; many guests called the location perfect for sightseeing.

  • Cleanliness9.5

    Multiple guests called rooms spotless, very clean and well maintained; one guest raised ventilation/mold concerns tied to poor AC in a single report, but overall cleanliness is strong.

  • Amenities9.5

    Complimentary coffee, tea, lemonade and available snacks/ready meals plus in-room kitchenettes were praised; limited lobby AC and only one elevator noted but overall amenities (kitchen, snacks) are strong.

  • Service9.4

    Staff frequently described as friendly, welcoming and helpful (early check-in facilitated, specific praise for lobby staff like Sonia). A few comments noted some staff were inexperienced or unhelpful about parking, but service is overall a clear strength.

  • Overall Experience9.0

    Most reviews describe a memorable, enjoyable stay with friendly service, great location and spacious, clean rooms with kitchens; a minority reported noise, parking and AC issues but overall guests strongly recommend the hotel.

  • Room Quality8.7

    Rooms are regularly noted as spacious with functional kitchenettes/full kitchens and comfortable beds for many guests; negatives include thin walls/noise, some firm beds and less appealing rear views for certain rooms.

  • Value for Money8.0

    Value is mixed: some guests cited good price and convenience, while others flagged high parking fees ($55/night) and questioned overall cost vs. services.

  • Food and Beverage7.5

    No included breakfast for many rooms was noted as a downside, though complimentary drinks (coffee, tea, lemonade) and snacks in the lobby partially mitigate this.

    “It was generally quiet. Though street noise was a bit loud. Checked multiple times to see if a window was open. And I live in a downtown metro region. Valet parking was convenient.”

    “Lage in Laufweite zum weißen Haus (ca. 10 Minuten) George Washington Universität (ca. 15 Minuten) Leihfahrräder vor der Tür. Bequeme Betten, Küchenzeile mit Kühlschrank und Mikrowelle. Radiowecker mit Anschluß zum Laden der Smartphones. Alles notwendige für 2-3 Tage da. Betten bequem, sauber. Es gibt kein Frühstück, aber rund um die Uhr Kaffee, Tee, Limonade, Eistee und Popcorn. Das Hotel ist kein Riesenkasten, sondern hat eine nette Größe.”
