They have charge for everything. You park you gotta pay and park at your own risk. No breakfast included. Not safe honestly. All rooms are openly accessible.

Hotel is located in a depressed part of Washington DC. That can be seen as soon as one gets to the hotel. Reception area is not inviting - receptionist almost closed out behind a glass window. Corridor dirty. Insufficient elevators if one has heavy suitcase going up the stairs is a challenge. Overall a poor facility; other than the affordable cost.
