The Frederick Douglass National Historic Site, administered by the National Park Service, is located at 1411 W Street, SE, in Anacostia, a neighborhood east of the Anacostia River in Southeast Washington, D.C.. Established in 1988 as a National Historic Site, the site preserves the home and estate of Frederick Douglass, one of the most prominent African Americans of the 19th century. Douglass lived in this house, which he named Cedar Hill, from 1877 until his death in 1895. Perched high on a hilltop, the site also offers a sweeping view of the U.S. Capitol and the Washington, D.C., skyline.

"Good hotel. Basic. Charley at the front desk was very helpful, welcoming and polite. Breakfast was good. Fresh. Good service. Everyone at the hotel was polite and helpful. Our room view was amazing. The room itself while was clean but needed some updating. New furniture and mattress would help. Otherwise I would highly recommend this hotel. Right in the heart of the wharf "

"Area was amazing if going to a game at Nationals Park. It is lively, there’s great food and drink options, and seems to be safe. The only negative thing that I have is we got a stadium view room but there’s a parking garage that blocks the actually view of the field and can only see a few rows at the top of the stadium. "
