The hotel location is really good; central and near all public transportation options, including Metro in the 7th Street. The front desk staff could be more friendly and helpful. The beds are not comfortable and the room’s cleanliness is bad, I could feel odor of mold and dust what caused me allergies. Regarding the caution deposit they asked I didn’t receive any refund.

The bed was terrible, there is NO BLANKET on the bed literally like 2 sheets… the windows are like plastic, you can hear every single noise, siren and homeless person screaming all night… we got STUCK in the elevator and the staff blew it off like it was no big deal. Would never stay here again.

Attention to guests and sometimes caring about their needs with a minimum of humane attitude would be a plus - exceptions granted. I guess you get what you pay for…
