The Baron Hotel is by no means a 5 star hotel experience, nor does it claim to be. Though it is old and a bit outdated carpet/decor-wise, it is very clean, the staff is always kind and helpful, and everything is in great working order. The price is right, it’s in a beautiful neighborhood near fantastic dining options and old architecture. I love staying here every time I’m in DC because it’s a great affordable option! Will be back!

The room was fairly clean and had everything I needed for a short stay. However, it was very small, with a tiny bed — enough for one person only. The AC worked, with a very loud fan. The wallpaper, the general smell, and the condition of the room gave off a feeling that the building was quite old and worn down. It was okay for a night alone..

there was mildew in the room the wall Tammy do on the wall that was filling out hand wheel do on them. They were stuffy. There was hair left in the drain in the shower. The sheets were stained, and the carpet was smelly. When speaking to the staff about it, I wanted to get at least a portion of my money back. There was no one to be found.

It is a great rate for a good location. It is a bit rustic and the elevator is definitely different.

A bad experimenter that next day we had to check out and go to another hotel. The experienced started with the hotel demanding to photocopy the biodata page of my passport thus putting by data into unknown hands and making it clear that if my passport was not allowed to keep the photocopy we would not be given a room, and no refund either. Later proceeded with the bedroom where we were booked into a room that when we went we found bedcovers sprawled On the bed, obviously slept in and we had to go to reception to complain and problems continued to the next room we we allocated with more issues that we raised with hotel reception. When we checked out the next day. We were not offered a refund even whe. We asked for it

Good value hotel. Yes, it is rather dated but the bed was comfortable, shower hot and the room clean. We found the area safe to walk in, several good dining options nearby and subway station 5 mins walk. Comedy club downstairs did not cause any noise issues on floor 3.

Hotels 3-star rating should be a stretch 2-star.

No grab bars in shower or bathroom. The first floor is up two long flights of stairs. No night light. Charged $35/room because we arrived 3 hours before check in time. Charged $150/room unexpected security deposit per room. Very noisy exhaust fan.

The stay at Baron is convenient, but it isn't luxury by any means. It is connected to a bar so coming in felt a little strange because many people were gathered in the front. The hotel itself is very bare bones. There is also a smell of cleaner that clung to our clothes. There are not a lot of spaces in the restroom to place your toiletries. No space to hang your washcloth either in the shower. The shower floor felt a little slippery when I first got in and there isn't a bar to hang onto so that felt precarious. It was fine for two nights, but we opted to check out early to head home instead of stay one more night. I am not sure I would stay again, but the price is right for DC so kind of hard to complain.
