My first stay was as advertised. The front desk was warm and welcoming. My room was super clean and just what I needed for my visit. I really appreciated the extra security of my key card required to use the elevator. The proximity to museums and restaurants was perfect!! One more thing- since I was on a road trip, having access to a nearby parking garage made my stay simpler in getting in and out of DC.

A fun stylish hotel with a very friendly staff. Rooms were a little small but my girlfriend and I were still comfortable. The hotel is surrounded by excellent restaurants and the capitol arena is a five minute walk away. I would certainly visit again next time I'm in DC.

They are not kidding about cozy rooms! I couldn't open my suitcase in mine. This is a great value for the location. The rooms don't have fridges, which is fine because you're surrounded by great restaurants in Chinatown. It's perfect for a solo work trip. I wouldn't suggest bringing small kids, though.

The staff are lovely and cannot fault them, the room was the smallest room on our journey, it was a boutique hotel and I’ve stayed in a boutique hotel before and you do not getting coffee/tea facilities in these hotels, they have hangar pegs for coats etc and pegs for hanging your haversack etc on. The bathroom was good and the hotel is good for walking around to museums, White House and the metro is 2 minutes away and union station half hour away for trains. There is loads of restaurants, coffee shops in the area. The hotel is on a busy street so if your a light sleeper I wouldn’t recommend but the hotel does supply ear plugs.
