Midweek Caps Game!

Excellent staff and right in the middle of everything DC has to offer. We stayed midweek to catch a Capitals game. It’s a 5 minute walk to the arena gate and surrounded by places to eat and drink. The rooms are “comfy sized” (150sq ft) but have everything you need. The bed was clean and comfortable. Highly recommend!

I love how the property was in the heart of all functions . Restaurants were walking distance, museums, and bars. I also love how the safety protocols for the residence were solely designed with a swipe key card to enter the hotel lobby, hotel elevators, rooms , and code for public restrooms.

It was one of favorite places to stay. It was perfect for just me. It was centrally located for what I wanted to see and visit. The experience was perfect and I loved the minimalist look.

Great location. Tight room but it didn’t matter for one night near a Caps game. Friendly & knowledgeable front desk. Loved it and would do it again if I needed a night in Penn Quarter or Chinatown. Don’t bring families here though; it’s tight in the rooms, although the bathroom was much bigger than I thought relative to the rest of the room. This was a 10/10 experience for my first night in DC and specific to a Caps game.

Just enough--nothing extra

This was exactly what we needed for a one-night stopover in DC. Super convenient location (easy to drive to, relatively inexpensive parking across the street, major Metro station just steps away) with lots of restaurants and stores and museums in easy walking distance. The room was really small, but exactly what we needed: a comfortable bed, a clean bathroom, and no unnecessary frills. All at a very reasonable price. I was quite delighted with our first visit, and will likely come back the next time we're in town. I should also note that the staff was very friendly and helpful, and there is a cafe and a bar right in the building.

The hotel is a vibe!

The room was soooo small, I had no idea that’s what 125 square feet looked like. It was good for the cost and the hotel staff were super friendly. I I wish I would have taken advantage of the cafe in the lobby, I only had a double espresso at checkout and it was really good. All in all, I would come back but would get a larger room.

Great experience

We brought our teenagers up to DC for some great food and cultural experiences after Christmas. Location was amazing: walked to Smithsonian, high end shopping (Dior, Chanel, Hermes, etc), and some great restaurants. Staff was amazingly cheerful and helpful, hotel restaurant was solid. Would definitely return.
