This is charming property is in a convenient location in downtown Washington, D.C. My room was a bit small, had no view (it was right against the side of the neighboring building), and was dark (they need to put light in the clothing closet), but it was clean. Other than that, public transit is closeby, and many local attractions are walkable. The front desk staff were also friendly and helpful.

Best value but you make trade-offs. The walls are paper thin and as a single person the chain lock does NOT cut it.

Amazing location and cleanliness for the price! The building is nice and the staff is super friendly. The only things that would make it better would be a better working AC and better water pressure, but still 100% worth it for the price.

Great trip

The rooms are nice and clean, the staff was absolutely amazing, energetic, and helpful if we needed anything. The tub was very slippery, with no grips on the surface.
