Good for a self service B&B.
Pros:

Location and room

Cons:

The staff on the first two days made no effort to even say hello or introduce themselves in the morning, sitting at their lap top in the corner. Not clear to be honest if they were guests or staff as we had to ask! The gentleman who took over the second two days was helpful when asked for stuff. Minor point but no tea spoons - boiled eggs are not easier to eat wish dessert spoons!

Overpriced for a dorm room, nice location.
Pros:

Great location, nice treats in the lobby

Cons:

Room was small such that one person had only about 7 inches of access to get around to the other side of the bed. Thought the price was quite a bit out of line with the room (550/night with tax) - pictures of the queen deluxe misleading. Somehow we ended up with the runt of the litter. Parking at 59/night a bit pricey too

Séjour d'une seule nuit malheureusement qui donne envie de revenir !
Pros:

La localisation en plein coeur de Georgetown et de ses jolies maisons, parfaite pour une jolie balade à pied dans les environs. Le petit jardin. L'ambiance comme à la maison. L'accueil de John. La décoration juste comme il faut.

Cons:

Rien, tout était conforme à mes attentes

Great for couples
Pros:

This experience was amazing! My partner and I stayed for one night to slow down, find some peace, and enjoy a quiet moment together, and it was absolutely perfect. We stayed in the room with the private garden, which allowed us to fully relax, watch the stars, and enjoy the sound of the birds. It truly felt like the perfect getaway.

The beds were extremely comfortable, and the shower was incredible! We also loved that they allowed us to have breakfast on our private patio, which made the experience even more special and let us continue enjoying the peaceful garden atmosphere.

Breakfast was delicious and very complete — we had English muffins, pastries, and excellent coffee. We will definitely be back!

Charming but strange experience
Pros:

The Poppy is super charming and in a great neighborhood. Having said that it is more Airbnb then hotel. I arrived at 6pm to check in and was left an envelope taped to the door with instructions on a code I could use by solving a puzzle. This code got me in the front door and into my room. I have a disability so was surprised that there was no elevator and steep stairs to take my bag. I booked the hotel in part because they had valet parking but no valet and no human when I arrived so out of luck. The rooms are charming but tiny. The breakfast was self serve and continental. Fine built nothing special. Cereal was to be eaten out of the plastic cereal container as there were no bowls. The staff in the morning sat at a laptop and looked at room reservation spreadsheets with an occasional instruction on breakfast if you looked confused. It all was a weird experience. All for$400+ a night. Great location but it felt like in their effort to minimize cost and overhead they just went too far. Having a friendlier and helpful staff would help and being clearer that there is no staff after 6pm should have been noted.

Georgetown & DC Vacation
Pros:

My husband and I enjoyed a 4 night stay in late March. What a fabulous boutique hotel in the most charming neighborhood! Thank you to Riley (sorry for any misspelling) who assisted me in adding an extra night to our reservation, she is so kind. We appreciated the text information regarding the after hours check in. Our room was very comfortable and clean. For my husband and I, it was a great space to sleep at night and we loved being able to open the windows for fresh air, especially during a rainstorm. We could not hear any other guests so we slept very well. It felt like we were staying in the home of fabulous hosts. The common area is clean and space is plentiful. Having snacks at all times was great; water, juices, tea, coffee, cereal, fruit, and baked goods. We loved the location and enjoyed our daily walks to DC, and all around Georgetown. We will definitely return to this hotel when we return to DC. Thank you to everyone who made our stay so enjoyable and COZY!

ridiculously expensive for a dark room with a view of trash.
Pros:

There was a good amount of space and it was clean.

Cons:

The room was in the downstairs of a three story building making the room dark and looked out on the side at the noeghboring restaurant where there is a rotting refrigerator and piles of trash. Old trash bags, essentially a dump.
