Pros:

Creepy environment; Building too old; You can't find even a bottle of water in this Hotel, let alone a kettle in the room. The resturant doesn't service in the morning. Just suitable for sleeping.

Pros:

I regularly come to DC to work for a week at a time. This is exactly what I expected - reasonable cost, good location to the Metro, clean room, dining nearby. Don't expect a chain hotel experience. I do wish I had time to experience the comedy club attached but did not. I can say I never heard noise on the 3rd floor from the bar or club.

Pros:

The Baron hotel smacks of old world charm, like a Parisian hotel with a curious layout, and relatively small rooms which maintained much of their original character, and were immaculately kept by our maids. (Be sure to leave them a tip!). The halls were lined with antiques and many photos of famous Americans with descriptions that could serve as a History 101 course. This was one of the best things about our stay in DC, and should we return for a visit when the city is NOT UNDER SIEGE, this is the hotel we will choose. PS-There is no nearby parking, so expect to rely on Uber or Lyft during your stay.

Never Again
Pros:

The service didn’t feel like I was a paying customer. There was no greeting or welcome when I came in. Then, I couldn’t get someone on the phone nor at the desk for almost a half hour which forced me to have to change my plans for the night. I will never stay here again.
