The location was great and affordable for the DC area and included parking. The hotel is old and run down but it was clean and the staff were very nice. No refrigerators in the room and the ice machine doesn't work. That was a little tough for me as I have injectable medication that has to stay cold. I had a small cooler that they filled for me as needed so it worked out. If you need a place to sleep while seeing DC on a budget it will work but if you are looking for any amenities this is not your place.

Acceptable for it's location to Union Market and to downtown .. Overall property is run down and appears dirty but acceptable to stay . Interior is acceptable as well with few amenities .. Front Desk staff ws very accommodating and very nice to deal with ... Overall if your looking or good price and will be out of the room for most of the day .. it's ok to lay your head down .. but management should really review the appearance and quality of their product

Ice machine is broken, cable and wifi was down the day we checked in, remote for tv didn’t work, doors don’t seal properly so you hear EVERYTHING going on outside, the ONLY positive is they let you check in early
