I will not be returning to this hotel/inn. I felt like an inconvenience to them for asking questions about my stay. They did not ask me anything about my stay or needing anything. The hotel cleaning staff rummaged through my personal belongings. Overall, a poor experience that I could have spent the $$ on somewhere else. You all are in the hotel industry...act like it.

Not what I expected

This is not an easily accessible hotel. Steps outside, steps inside, no elevators. They do not provide a breakfast and their coffee/tea options are laughable. The rooms look like old dormitories and a window unit provides heat. Phone did not work and there was kilz thrown on the ceiling. Having said all this, the hotel worked with me to provide a room my mom could access. The staff were incredibly helpful, courteous, and attentive. The beds/sheets were clean and soft. Shower, bathroom and towels were neat and clean. They held our luggage for free while we saw the White House. For an economic stay made last minute, I am very pleased to have been lucky enough to find the Windsor Inn. It was not the most glamorous hotel in DC but the staff made up for all the physical faults.

Hotel is very old, room was large enough. Room was very hot, heated by an old radiator, we ran the window A/c to make it comfortable. Even though the hotel is old the room and lobby were clean. Bathroom was clean and no issues. Hotel located in nice area of town, felt safe walking around area. We stayed on a weekend and parking was fine, during the week parking would be limited.

Check in was fast and easy the taxi call button is a nice addition, the receptionist was nice and gave good directions to room. The building is in relatively good condition, some of the doors are a little worn or warped and the walls in the bathroom in my room were bubbling but besides that the room was good.

We enjoyed our stay at Windsor Inn. The property is an older property, but everything is well maintained. There was no excess noise and was a short walk to the train station and lots of dining options 2 blocks away on 14th st. Would definitely stay again.

Had an easy, affordable stay. Very convenient location to walk to many restaurants in the area plus I love the architecture of the surrounding neighborhood. There is not an elevator so make note of that when booking/packing. Only qualm was that the ice machine broke.

This was the first time we stayed in DC overnight. We chose to stay here because it was convenient to the event we were attending. The room and bathroom were clean. Room was small, almost prison cell-like. Bed was comfortable enough, with clean sheets, but seemed smaller than a double bed. AC worked well. Not enough clear, flat spaces to put things down. Free WIFI was spotty, mostly awful. TV reception was so poor, I turned it off. Would have been nice to have 2 washcloths in bathroom, instead of one. No hooks to hang a robe or towels near the shower. And a shelf or caddy in the shower to place our soap, shampoo, etc would have also been nice. I mean, www.simplehuman, Windsor Hotel! Coffee in the lobby was very generic, but lack of cream or half-n-half is regrettable. The one ice machine in the building was not working. If you've driven a car to the Windsor, consider adding $37 to $50 to your budget for nearby garage parking. We took a chance and parked on a side street nearby, but it was a Saturday, so enforcement was probably lax. You may not be as lucky during the week, and/or for a multi-night stay.

The inn is very rundown with dated peeling wallpaper, water stained ceilings and stained rugs, our bathroom, which was recently painted was done very poorly. One of the emergency exits was blocked with furniture. Our two bedroom room had no dressers and all of the furniture seriously looked like it was collected from someone’s trash. It needs a huge infusion of capital to bring it up to what I would’ve considered basic standards.
