6.2/10

I stayed at this hotel due to its incredibly affordable rates compared to nearby options. While the rooms were historically small and had some stains on the wallpaper, the location was fantastic, within walking distance of major landmarks. The service was consistently friendly and upbeat, which was a highlight of my stay. However, I did find the dining experience to be quite disappointing, with a shabby atmosphere and overpriced items that were not even correct on our orders.

6.2/10

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the location is fantastic, just a short walk from the Mall and the White House, and the staff was quite accommodating. However, the rooms could definitely use a better clean and they felt a bit outdated. The dining experience was also lacking, particularly the breakfast options and service.

Rooms

The room I stayed in was a bit worn with a noticeable stain on the carpet and some red marks on the wall, and I was concerned about a wall outlet hanging out next to the bed.

Service

The service was accommodating; they helped us with an early check-in and offered the use of a microwave, but the staff could have been friendlier.
