The rooms are super small and there was a lot of noise from the street, however very clean. Walkable distance from the white house and the monument. Many dining options around, including the 3 restaurants/bars at the hotel. Whiskey bar was amazing and staff is excellent!

The hotel is conveniently located across the metro station. The service staff was polite and very friendly. Ms. Aiman was particularly helpful and friendly in helping us check in. The room was spotlessly clean.

Staff were incredibly nice/hospitable. Hotel located in awesome historic Chinatown District just blocks from nearly everything including White House. Multiple food/beverage (adult & otherwise) options including swank Whiskey Bar in basement. Would encourage research/questions into room type as mine was a mere 150 sq ft re: two people would need to coordinate their movements

Basic but good

Very basic room in a good location. Great location. My only complaint is that the room was so small I literally could not open my suitcase in the room apart from if it were sitting on the bed. Facilities were new and of a high standard.

Staff was very kind and friendly, place was clean, very noisy though. You can hear your neighbors going in and out of their room, which is so loud that at times I thought someone was coming into my room. Other than that, good stay for a few nights.
