If you are planning to stay in this hotel, think again. They do not care enough about guests. During our stay, the whole hotel was having issues with air-conditioning, which resulted in very warm rooms and communal areas. They provided a fan to guests, but it was hard to sleep since the rooms had almost no air circulation (no fresh air from outside). From a chat with other guests, this was going on for at least a week, which makes the situation even worse: how can a hotel take such a long time to restore comforts such as AC to their guests. Also, although it is listed with swimming pool, it closes from 1st September. This is not mentioned at any point during booking. Although we had these two major issues during our holiday stay, they have not offered anything to compensate for this besides the option to cancel/refund. We couldn't even consider this option since we were only informed one day before, while already travelling, not giving us much time to re-plan the trip.

Whilst the property offers useful facilities such as lounge areas, the bar and pool, this was significantly let down by the lack of air conditioning. I was only informed of this on arrival, not beforehand, which mean that both sleep and relaxation were heavily disrupted. Very unreliable.

I reserved this hotel for my husband one night at Washington DC. He arrived at DC little after 10:00pm, he was at the hotel around 11:00pm. At check in, he was told the room he will be in doesn’t have an AC, he is welcomed to cancelled his reservation, and he has to call Expedia/ Hotel.com to get his money back. He asked since it is 11:00pm and it will be hard for him to get another hotel at that time, if he can get a discount, the staff brush him off and told him to call Expedia/ hotel.com. This is unacceptable, they knew he is new in town, and it is hard to get another hotel at that time. Very disappointed about the overall experience.
