Would not choose to stay in this property again. The bedroom was poor. The bathroom very small and uncomfortable. The bedroom ceiling totally run down. In general, totally overpriced

The style and aesthetic of the property was super cute, modern and eclectic. The rooftop bar/restaurant was great and super convenient. The staff was helpful and polite. Parking was a challenge as we had a large pickup truck that didn't fit in the deck we were told to park in. Other than that, the bed tilted down at the head which we didn't realize until the morning and both woke up feeling a bit funky. Overall though, the rooms were very nice, spacious, updated and well-decorated. We would absolutely stay here again.

Awesome boutique hotel. Decor in public space and guest rooms are very welcoming and comfortable. The main lobby and small outdoor balcony near elevator is the perfect place to sit and read, have a conversation or as I did waterpaint. The area is definitely a foodie adventure so many places to choose from. The Treehouse and cafe on site are very good. I recommend reservations for the Treehouse, the 2 times (5:30pm Wednesday &Thursday) I stopped in for an early dinner I was informed they had only bar seating. All the tabels were reserved. I was there about an hour and a half and only 3 tables has guests. Food is good and the waitstaff are pleasant and attentive.

We love staying at this property when we are in Washington, DC. We love the proximity to Union Market and the ability to walk or take the metro almost anywhere. The price is very reasonable for this area and they allow dogs. The rooms are pretty small but we don't spend much time in them anyway.

Great property to stay at. We went for a family trip to DC with our two boys. The family room was a great option as it offered bunk beds for them. They had their own little space with curtains and lighting and charging ports. The hotel was very cute and trendy. Liked that I didn’t feel like I was staying at a chain hotel and enjoyed the unique atmosphere and decor. The property was close enough to the metro to use city transportation. I would definitely stay here again and would refer to others.

This hotel is aesthetically pleasing. Staff was nice at check-in, but when we checked into our room, there was a huge hole in the ceiling. Once we communicated this with the front desk staff (including showing them a picture) they expressed there wasn’t much they could do and there weren’t “any” rooms to switch to. Maintenance saw the hole and was surprised to see by the size. He took pictures and informed us that the person who does the patches was not there for the weekend. Maintenance, however, got us a new room despite front desk indicating there weren’t “any” rooms available to switch to. I don’t appreciate the dishonesty about room availability and how Maintenance took care of what front desk should have from the beginning. I did not feel safe sleeping in a room with a huge hole in the ceiling.

Everything was great except that it is very loud. Half the rooms overlook a courtyard. And the walls are thin. Pipes in the room overhead can sound like a raging river. It would be nice if there were signs to be quiet after ten pm. It quieted down after midnight when we were there.
