Great value, good location, crowded elevators

I only stayed one night but found the room to be comfortable clean and spacious. I had more space and more in-room features (microwave!) than some of the nearby competing hotels. I was happy to have access to many fun restaurants in the nearby union market district and generally felt like a more fun neighbourhood than other areas where I’ve stayed closer to the Capitol. Charging for the in-room water bottle when the tap water is too warm feels like something from a long gone age. Also one annoyance was the long time it took to get around using the elevators without an obvious stair option.

The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The location was great, and the metro was within a short walking distance. The only issue was that there was a pungent stench that ran through the hotel. As soon as you walked in and into the elevators, there was a scent that so overwhelming that it made you sick to the stomach. We were told it was coming from the loading dock, and the staff tried to cover the smell with air fresheners, but that only seemed to make it worse. This is the only negative thing I can report about our stay, other than that we were very pleased with the hotel.

Average Hotel.

Stay was not bad. The pool was closed, limited ice machines, the restaurant was less than desirable, a/c barely worked. Other than that it was ok. The bright spot was the staff, all of the staff were amazing.

Overall great property for the price, loved the location and it’s located right beside the train station which made our commute pretty convenient. Please 7/11, subway, dominos etc are all right beside the hotel which is a big boon. There are 2 things I did not like due to which I’m not giving 5 stars - firstly we went during peak summers so pool should’ve been open as we really wanted to take a dip and we specifically booked a hotel with a swimming pool and secondly, we called the room service to bring towels, we had to call 4-5 times and it took more than an hour to get towels (it was our last day and we were getting late for our flight)

The only good thing about the location is that it’s right near the metro station. However, that also attracts sketchy people. Saw what looked like a homeless person wandering around on the 3rd floor. Hotel is decent. Nothing special.
