Property was great and clean. The bar had limited choices for travelers not used to DC food and drink choices. The room was super clean, but not enough room for two people to walk past each other. Had to walk to one end of the room to allow someone to pass. The toilet/shower was surrounded by glass and echoed what was going on inside. Parking was a complete gamble to find and costly to use. I’ve never stayed at a hotel that didn’t have its own parking and wasn’t aware of that fact until the day before my stay began. Seemed to be a popular hotel by the activity going on inside.

This type of hotel was a little out of our wheel house. The rooms are small and very much like a stateroom on a cruise ship. They are very clean. Very minimalistic. Very tech heavy. Check in/out by kiosk. All room controls are by wall switches, phone app or provided iPad. It is in a very walkable neighborhood. Convenient to the Mall and the Wharf. Area felt safe. The room was quiet. Staff were helpful and friendly. There is a rooftop bar and prefixe sushi restaurant. Reservations are needed. We didn't try it, but it looked fun. We did sit outside on the roof. They have comfortable seating and charging stations. It was very nice and not crowded. The downstairs bar has friendly staff. We did not eat here so can't say anything about them. We did have drinks. They were pricey (it's DC) and not tip top. It was a great stay. Clean. Comfortable. Would recommend for a young person or couple. The bed is large but right up against a large picture window so the person on the inside has to crawl over the other to get out. The bed also only had electrical plugs on the inside not on the window side. That makes it difficult to charge and keep your phone etc next to you. So, it was fun. It was different. Lastly, no parking at the hotel. We used Spothog. Found a garage very close. No problem, as the weather was fine.

I love the hotel. The area is a dead zone for restaurants and night life. while it is very easy to get to and from the airport without a car, getting to and from more lively destinations is very slow on public transportation and very expensive in an Uber.
