Great location. Leave your wallet at the door.

This hotel is old and you can tell. In major need of a renovation to the rooms. Liked location however parking for $70 a day… should be valet or at the White House for that price. Parking is Tiiiiight.

The hotel is just fine--a little rough around the edges, but nothing I wouldn't expect in a highly used facility. The patio was a great option for relaxing and eating takeout. Location is great for museums & other highlights, but there are few restaurant options if you want to go out. Doordash/Uber Eats are the only real choices other than Starbucks/McDonalds.

We had a reservation for a room with 2 Queen beds so that we could stay with our young children aged 7 and 5. Instead they have us a room with a single bed where we all had to fit. Then we were told that client services would reach out to make us switch rooms for the second night but no such thing occured. To add insult to injury, the room they assigned us was in front of the trash chute, so every time we left the room we got the stench of trash in our faces. Completely unacceptable!
