We liked the location. It was convenient to a grocery, restaurants, and to the White House and other tourism areas. The front desk staff were polite and helpful. The hotel felt tired and in need of a facelift with flooring, wall coverings, bathroom and kitchen fixtures. However, the bedding and towels were of nice quality.

Home away from home. Room was well furnished with kitchen utensils and all you need to prepare a home cooked meal away from home. Trader Joe’s right across the street adds a huge value to this location. Friendly staff as well.

Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
The suite was comfortable, clean, and priced right. There weren’t enough towels for the number of guests but the front desk staff were helpful in providing more on request. The location is fantastic, right next to Georgetown. Great neighborhood and plenty to do. The room had a strong smell of mildew, outdated stove/ oven, rusted drains in the bathroom, and an occasional sewage type smell that we think came from the drains. These things could’ve been specific to our suite and wouldn’t deter me from booking again.

Amazing experience! Very convenient location, clean and update to date property. Staff is very professional and informative. All accommodations made it feel like a home away from home experience! Definitely recommend!!
The idea of an apart-hotel worked well for a one week stay with a group of 6. Area was convenient to Georgetown and central DC area for tourist attractions.
