This was a great area to stay for our DC trip. Was close to the Metro so we could just ride right into the city. There was some great food stops in the area. Tatte was great for breakfast as the hotel breakfast was mediocre. Hotel was clean which is our main feature when booking. Would stay again. Staff was quite friendly

Thanks

We arrived later than we expected. Check in was quick and simple. The nice firm bed was welcome. The desk clerk recommended an ideal spot on the mezzanine for our breakfast at the DELI. Prices were reasonable and so many vegetarian options. Thank you.

Overpriced for parking and drinks and breakfast

Nice hotel but ridiculous prices for parking 27.50 for parking and I thought when I booked the room breakfast was included but it wasn’t included and that was an additional 16.00 dollars which I declined due to wanting to get on the road and the bed wasn’t comfortable at all sorry but it wasn’t
