The hotel isn’t very honest about their prices and whatnot , was told parking would be included in our trip, however that was an additional $118 , they knew parking was free on the street. They are very slick and that’s not using the honesty principle… as well as there was a roach in our room .. we do have pictures , bathtub had scum residue and was dark and not bright white like a clean hotel is normally… for over $800 bucks for 2 days , we don’t recommend this hotel unfortunately

Location, location, location! This location was convenient for all tourist destinations. Just a block from L’Enfant Plaza stop on the Metro, it is easy to get anywhere in DC. (If you’re 65 or older, apply for hall-price fares for all Metro train and bus rides at the main Metro office in the building across the street from Exit B at L’Enfant Plaza. (Go to the back side of the building with the mural.) The hotel room was clean but the towels were rough and the TV remote was barely responsive to input. The Continental breakfast is a good deal at $14.99 and the restaurant provides good food and friendly service. The service everywhere was excellent. We would stay there again!
