Despite some of the negative reviews regarding this property, my experience was uniformly positive. It’s small, old, spotty WiFi,and lacking in some amenities like a fridge and microwave. But it was clean, in a good neighborhood, comfortable bed, great shower and linens, and quiet. And a great value for the money.
Overall a strong B+
The location was amazing it was right along a bus line and very near everything that we wanted to do during our vacation. The main lobby was a cozy space that made you feel at home and the staff was very nice and also helpful. We will definitely come and stay again.
Rooms are clean and tidy up daily. Everything was great, only one flaw, which was the 2 male concierge we're not very helpful or friendly. But\nThe young lady in the day was so nice help.My son in many ways by holding her luggage while we walked out to get a bite to eat before check in. That I appreciated so much
The property is a beautiful old house. We had a suite with a fireplace, beautiful old design elements such as an arch over the window and a built-in corner unit. Beds were comfortable. Air conditioning is provided by window units. Keep in mind there are no elevators, but Tmore, the guy who worked the front desk was very nice and helped me with luggage. He also went upstairs to get ice for me.
This quaint inn was an excellent stay in Washington DC. The staff was super nice and helpful. The location was real close to the DC sights (1.3 miles straight down 16th to The White House). Bikes, metro everywhere and it all clicked to provide a fabulous dip in the huge pool of sights and sounds of the nations capital. This is a great place with wonderful people.
Very clean but very basic. It reminded me of staying in a hotel in Europe. There was not refrigerator and the blow dryer didn't work well. I think the mattress on the bed should be replaced as well. That said, the room was quiet, the area around the hotel was peaceful and the subway was only a 15 minute walk from the hotel. I will probably stay there again.

The area has some quick restuarants very close. About a five minute walk is the Dupont Circle area with lots of restuarants, entertainment and convenience stores. The hotel is older/dated with zero amenities. Beds are average at best but the area is very quiet and very safe.
My experience was fine. I felt safe and well taken care of. The desk clerk Sunny was extremely accommodating, helpful and friendly. The gentleman was very good too. One other female attendant was also accommodating.My only disappointment was the room lacked a fridge to store my food, and a microwave oven.
