Room was clean and simply but nicely furnished. They use an iPad to control all the devices in the room, but there was no way to turn on the "bathroom" light by itself.the lighting was all or nothing. The bathroom was a frosted glass inclosure.. trendy but not so pleasant.. The room is excellent for 1 person but crowded for 2. The bed goes from wall to wall so you have to get in bed in order, and to get out you should have to climb over the person that was on the room side of the bed. There were not glasses or mugs to drink from, and no washclothes. If you need just a clean place to crash at a DC reasonable rate, it's perfect.
