Decent Short Stay Location
Pros:

Location & staff met the mark. Also, an early check-in was absolutely needed and appreciated.

Cons:

Some of the facilities are evidently aged and the bathroom fixtures weren't the cleanest.

pleasant stay, nice breakfast, good location
Pros:

The hotel was nice, location is good too 15 min walking from everything around comparing to price and parking was 53 dollars each night so it wasn't bad comparing to other hotels and location
everything was good except the breakfast we must be aware of that the booking was only for two people with breakfast included and we were 4 people in the room !

Cons:

We booked a room for three adults and a children 15yrs with breakfast included, but when we checked in the receptionist told us the breakfast is ONLY for two and we must pay for the additional two people 16.9$ each! this was unexpected

Cons:

La personne qui s’occupait de servir le petit déjeuner était sympa le premier jour mais les jours suivants elle était froide et désagréable jusqu’à ne plus dire bonjour et à nous éviter. C’est dommage.

Pros:

Quarto amplo, espaçoso, com a bela vista e uma localização privilegiada se você estiver pensando em conhecer a parte turística de Washington. Crianças menores de 5 anos não pagam o buffet de café da manhã. No hall existe 1 bar/lanchonete excelente em que podemos fazer as refeições.

Cons:

Não posso falar que tem alguma coisa que tenha me incomodado. Não tive nenhuma surpresa negativa

A good time in DC
Pros:

Johnny Rockets being there. The garage being secured at night.

Cons:

There was a lot of repairs that needed fixing in our room. The windows were dirty in our room. We accidentally got to the hotel a day early and the woman at the desk was not even a little empathetic to us. Didn’t help us find a hotel for the night. Not good customer service.
