We absolutely love thos place. The bed was probably my favorite part. It was so comfortable and the window treatment allow us to have a full view if wanted or complete privacy.The room comes with an Ipad that controls the lighting, tv and window. If you're a fan a sushi definitely visit the sky bar. Great drinks and delicious fresh sushi. Make sure you make reservations for the full experience. We had enjoyed the rest of the night downstairs at the bar which have a nice ambiance and comfortable seating area's.

The room was so comfortable, especially the bed. The only drawback was the mini fridge. It wasn’t cold enough and it was quite small. The hotel location was quite convenient to the L’Enfant Plaza Metro. Check in and check out were easy. Staff was helpful. The iPads control everything in the room. A fun use of technology! I will definitely stay there again.

Nice small room. Good food available. Was glad to have breakfast included. They should clarify parking options and ideas on the communication - especially for late arrivals - i may pay more for parking than i did for the room.

Convenient to National Mall and many points of interest. Close to metro. The rooms are tiny but I was fully expecting that. Just planned to use the room to sleep and it served the purpose. Two people is manageable with a good attitude, anything more wouldn’t work. Being solo and out all day, it was all I needed for a great price.

The staff are amazing. I can’t remember the woman that helped me name but she was very professional and she put a smile on my face. I was receiving very bad customer service from the airlines and etc so it was very refreshing for her to be so bubbly and made my experience great!!

I really enjoyed this hotel! Perfect sized room, very clean, super comfortable bed, and really fantastic interior design. Also a quick walk to the wharf and spy museum and dc metro. I definitely recommend and would visit again. As a note, my stay did NOT include breakfast so the 3/5 breakfast rating is actually for the food i ordered late night. I ordered dumplings and they were a little dry. I also ordered coffee and it tasted burnt and had grounds at the bottom. My guess is that the breakfast here is probably a lot better. My late night order was around maybe 1015pm and unfortunately late night food is hit/miss at many places.
