I loved my stay here. The front desk and door staff couldn’t be nicer- and they have round the clock shifts so they are always available to help. The room was clean, bed comfy, the pillows were PERFECT, and the free coffee bar in the morning was a godsend. I also used the fitness room which was really nice- small but well equipped and with nice natural light and mirrors. I was on the top floor facing the backside of the building instead of “city view” or frontside, and I actually preferred this. It was quiet and still had really nice views. They give you free drink passes and dinner discount passes too. I only used the drink passes (for house wine or a small house cocktail) but the restaurant looked good. I’ll try it next time. :) The hotel is in a gorgeous and safe neighborhood, two blocks from a Whole Foods and CVS, and also two blocks to 14th Street which has literally hundreds of restaurants and shops. Highly recommend the Banneker! Thanks for a lovely stay.

Staff VERY friendly. Need a lower $ breakfast choice. Nice rm & bed. Extremely noisy from outside, hard to sleep. Bathroom way too dim. Shower pressure way too low. No coffee in room, no iron in room unless you ask. Wait staff gets distracted easily. Cannot access rooftop bar which was only reason we chose this hotel. Will not stay there at our next visit.
