This place is a joke. The rooms are gross and dated. The pictures they show are not what the rooms really look like. Way smaller and dirtier. There is no maid service except every 7 days. Unless you want to pay 125 bucks! They are mad when you ask for a towel because they only give you 2. They get mad when you ask for anything. Rude staff. Then they scam You and charge 500 bucks for smoking even though you didn’t. The rooms are gross and toilets are dirty. Carpet smells like dog sh… Place is crazy expensive for a dump. No food or bar just an awkward weird dirty place that scams you!

Efficiency Hotel

This hotel is an efficient type. It has s full kitchen and very spacious for an extended stay or contract worker. House keeping is once a week. The HVAC system only runs one setting based on the season ( hot in winter and cold in summer) you can only control it by turning the system thermostat on or off. Thats was the only weird thing I experienced.

The room was clean, more than spacious enough for me and my 3 friends, and we were able to find parking directly in the side of the hotel enabling us to see our car from our window. Not to mention the view was nice as well. The only downfall to me was that the ice and vending machine were in the basement.

DC trip in December

We loved staying here. Front staff is very responsive via text moreso than phone call. However they do respond quickly. There is a charge to check in before 3:30 but we preferred to just get inside. The room was large and clean. They were very helpful with our service animal. We would stay again any time.

Good location

The communication from the hotel was good. We could not check in 2 hours early without pay additional money. The shower leak on the floor so bad that it took all the towels to dry thr floor. The hotel was told about it and said the would address it. They only gave us new towels. The shower had a lot of mold in it and you can tell it had been there for a while. The shower still leaked the next day. The heat stopped working the second day. Thank goodness it was not that cold outside. We told the staff and still was not working when we left. The staff were nice and helpful with knowledge of the area.
