Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The rooms, though slightly smaller than what I'm used to, were clean, light, and airy. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, making my experience memorable. The location was superb, close to major attractions and with easy access to public transport. The dining options were convenient and enjoyable, a great way to start the day. Overall, a great value for the money.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The location was superb, just a few blocks from the museums on the National Mall and conveniently close to many important sites in Washington. The service was exceptional, with the staff being extremely nice and helpful throughout my visit. While the dining options were terrific, the prices were a bit on the higher side. The rooms were surprisingly quiet, considering the hotel's central location on F Street, providing a peaceful retreat.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were extremely comfortable and clean, with all the necessary amenities like a fridge, microwave, and separate bedroom. The location was superb, just a short walk away from top attractions like the National Mall and the White House. The service was exceptional, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure my comfort. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and I wished there were more breakfast places nearby.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms had a beautiful view, were a great size, with a comfortable bed, and excellent water pressure. One small inconvenience was the need to wait for my shorts to dry before taking the elevator or changing in the slightly cramped bathroom. The replacement of the tubs was a really nice touch for those tired of standing while bathing.
The hotel was lovely, immaculately clean, and in a perfect location, allowing us to walk to the National Mall and enjoy the monuments up close without the crowds. However, the room lacked a view, was dark, and we had to request tea and coffee facilities daily, often not receiving the right amount or items each time.
