Checking in and out took a while. Evidently Expedia didn't push through my reservation so I was told I didn't have one when I showed up. The check out took a while as well (roughly five minutes to turn in keys and get my invoice) and my Uber was getting close. Otherwise, a really great stay and very helpful staff.

The team at Hotel AKA is excellent and professional. After a screwup by Expedia where no rooms were available but they booked folks anyway, the hotel team worked to find me a room. It was an overbooked hotel event across DC, but they worked hard and made me feel so comfortable by providing beverages and a place to work. By the way, with no guarantee that I would ultimately be a paying guest. Rooms are really large and the restaurant on premise is amazing (a French style bistro - have the duck!). Highly recommend. It is a new hotel so everything is fresh.

I met some really pleasant staff. Unfortunately I saw a dead rat on property. When you pay top dollar you definitely want the assurance of a pest controlled and free environment. Rooms are new and the balcony is nice but can’t make up for the dead rat. Makes you wonder about hygiene. The gm tried to use construction as an excuse. Not buying it

Spectacular Hotel
Our stay was magnificent. All of the staff, front desk staff, cleaning staff, morning breakfast staff, door staff, etc. were all excellent. Each staff person who we interacted with was very friendly, professional, and polite. The room and everywhere else was very clean. The house cleaning staff did a great job cleaning our room. Our stay had no hiccups. Everything went incredibly smoothly. We highly recommend this hotel.

Would definitely stay At Hotel AKA again.
Location of hotel was within walking distance or short bus ride to White House and Monuments. Breakfast was served each morning at Hotel AKA and included a variety of items such as fresh fruit, cakes, bagels and yogurts - all delicious. Our double room was large and very clean, housekeeping is doing an excellent job. Front desk personnel were always friendly and helpful.
