It’s about a 20 minute walk to most of the Smithsonian museums/mall making this hotel very convenient to stay at. The bar and restaurant options here are great as well. Yes, the rooms are very tiny but they’re also super cozy. If the non private washrooms weird you out the lobby ones are very private. It’s cute, clean and convenient!

Wonderful property, although the rooms are TINY. Parking is also very scarce, but, outside that, CitizenM delivered. My choice whenever there is a property nearby.

10/10 would stay again

What a lovely, artsy hotel, near so many great DC attractions. The room was basic but clean, with some great tech automation, all managed through the provided tablet. Coffee and breakfast were fantastic, and every staff member/ambassador was very friendly.
Great bed!

Convenient location. Super friendly staff. Quick checkin/checkout. Very clean. Room for 1, and if you are just crashing a night in DC, is good, wouldn’t recommend for longer stay as there is no room to move. Comfortable bed, blackout curtains, and very quiet at night. Cannot give 5 stars cause coffee in the room is a standard offering at any hotels these days, and I’d gladly take that over fancy colored lights over the shower. unfortunately no coffee/tea in the room there (coffee for purchase downstairs)

The main thing I was unpleased about was the lack of views. When you first check in your asked you if you want a courtyard view or a street view but no matter which view you pick top or bottom you still see an old building out of your window. Besides that this hotel is in walking distance to museums, The Wharf, restaurants which is a big plus.

Nice small cozy place nearby the metro and relatively close to major attractions. Only thing is that there isn’t a lot of places to eat around within walking distance and therefore would be nicer if the hotel would offer more real food choices locally instead of just snack type foods.
