"Perfect location in Adams Morgan DC. The staff were friendly and helpful, free coffee and kitchen facilities were very welcome. It's basic, but our room was clean and spacious. No lift and luggage storage requiring the purchase of a padlock per locker were the only negatives. We had a lot of luggage and were on the second floor! Close to some good bars and restaurants, walk-able to the white house and mall attractions in around 30 minutes. Overall a great little funky hotel for a few nights in...

"I've stayed at this hotel multiple times for work, and it's always been a pleasant experience. The staff is attentive and friendly. The bar is also really nice, a great spot to unwind after a long day. However, during my latest stay, I encountered some issues. The room was noisy due to outside sounds, and the air conditioning unit made loud, distracting noises at night. Despite these issues, I would still recommend this hotel, but I hope the management will address these concerns to improve the...

"We stayed in a King apartment style suite. It was spacious, but certain elements were unconventional. The thermostat system is ancient so it was difficult to know how to set the right temp and keep it there (winter). No towel racks except one on the back wall of the bathtub. But everything else was fine. Not sure I'd stay here again. Front desk was friendly and restaurant staff were helpful, too. Street parking on a Fri night - used meter (until 10pm), left it over night, then woke up early to...
