Arriving at this hotel meant immediate warmth from the staff, who provided exceptional service, even helping with local car troubles. The room was spacious, featuring a full kitchen that facilitated easy meal preparation. nearby grocery shopping added convenience. However, there is no room service, and a bit more variety in dining options close to the hotel would be beneficial. It's positioned in a peaceful area, a short walk from the Metro, making exploration effortless. Fresh cream cakes from the restaurant were a delightful treat during my stay.

Spent 4 nights at a cozy place with plenty of warm water for showers and a fantastic galley kitchen for our family. We enjoyed relaxing in the lounge area and the peace was blissful despite some noise from the street outside. A little more cleaning in the kitchen would’ve been nice, but the overall experience was terrific! 😊

Perfect for a Family Vacation
The staff were absolutely amazing, always friendly and attentive. The location was so convenient, just a short walk to all the key spots. I also loved the full kitchen in the room, made things easy with the kids, especially when Whole Foods was just around the corner.
It wasn't exactly inexpensive, but, you know, for what we got, it was still acceptable.

Incredible staff and spacious accommodations
My 10-year-old daughter and I had an amazing first visit to DC, made perfect by this hotel's incredible staff and spacious room. The kitchen and living area were perfect for us, and the location was just a short stroll from the metro and local shops, allowing us to easily explore the city. It would be great if the hotel had air conditioning, as our room felt a bit muggy at times.

We loved our stay at this place! The cozy kitchenette was perfect for breakfast prep before we hit the biking trails along the Potomac River.
My kids wished for an easy access ramp for strollers.

Best part was the spacious queen studio with a full kitchen—so nice for making our own meals! Location's perfect, but the bathroom could use some updates. Still a great stay overall! 😊

I loved the spaciousness of the Studio Queen. Having a full kitchen made meal prep super easy. Enjoyed the close proximity to the metro and the variety of nearby restaurants. The beds were incredibly comfortable, perfect for winding down after a day exploring the city. Nice having a complimentary breakfast of pastries and coffee in the lobby made mornings easier. Staff provided friendly service throughout my stay, always greeting me with a smile. However, there were a few issues that need addressing. The blinds in the bathroom were tricky to operate, and the laundry app created frustration when I couldn't easily pay for washing. The restaurant wasn't open for lunch or dinner, which limited dining options on-site. Overall, those minor inconveniences didn't overshadow my enjoyable visit, and I appreciated the hotel's charming atmosphere.

I stayed in a Studio Queen for two nights. The room was spacious and had a full kitchen, which was super convenient. The bed was comfy, and I loved having a sitting area to relax. The sheets felt nice, and it was clean when I arrived. However, the bathroom could use some updates, as it felt a bit worn. The water pressure in the shower was also a little weak. Still, the vibe was cozy overall.

I absolutely loved the easy walk to the Lincoln Memorial, just over 2 km away, allowing me to soak in the beauty of the National Mall along the way. The fact that I enjoyed some peaceful moments in a nearby park with views of the treetops was a delightful bonus during my weekend stay.

The rooms feature full kitchens, allowing for easy meal preparation, which is perfect for families. It’s a convenient spot near the metro and just blocks away from dining options and grocery stores, making it easy to stock up on supplies.
Room 508 had a sagging bed, making it less comfortable than 417, and the gap under the door let in hallway light at night, disrupting sleep. I ended up on a pet-friendly floor despite indicating allergies, which wasn’t the most pleasant surprise. Additionally, the HVAC unit could be quite noisy at times, making it hard to settle down after a long day of exploring. There were some quirks with the plumbing too. hot water took an unusually long time to come through.
