Location was great, staff was OK. It’s always clean. Except the elevator smelt like it could’ve stood to be cleaned. I tried to tell the stuff that there was only two people staying in the room and four, but I guess it didn’t matter they still text me on it, which was a total disappointment.

Comfort from the road trip

The staff was amazing. They kept the handicap lift available since my mom and I couldn't go upstairs and everything about the building including entry was stairs. There was a doorbell on side to use lift. The only down fall which caused us to stay in the comfort of our room was like every hotel in Washington the older hotels had no parking and the garage they partnered with was three blocks four lights away from hotel. That hurt us walking so far so once parked we left car in garage and used other means of transportation. It was good they got a discounted $10 per day because going in and out you had to py the 10 each time you left and came back. otherwise the gargage if you didn't pay attendant and put in machine was $27 a day. We loved the location though if you are a walker places were about 22 minutew walks to eat or by car about a 8-10 minute drive.

The staff is great, especially Robin at the front desk. Our room was small but clean. My only suggesstion would be to have a seating area available for those that want to order takeout. Heavy rain kept us inside one night but without a convenient place to enjoy our meal.

Hotel was clean and the staff were very friendly. The one downside is the parking garage u need to park in is about 3 blocks away but they do give u a ticket so its only $10 to park. Its walking distance to just about everything.

Disabled unfriendly and cramped rooms

The hotel was situated reasonably close to all the popular spots. Big problem was the lack of user friendly disability access you had to wait for someone to access it for you not great for me as an independent disabled traveler I want to be able to use the same facilities as able bodied people and not have to rely on others. The room was extremely tight considering I use a walking aid I couldn’t get it into my room without dismantling it. Also been back for over 2 weeks and still not been refunded my $100 security deposit.
