Angela and Wanda were great. We came before room was ready. They let us store luggage behind desk. While we went sight seeing. The location was convenient. There’s a gas station , McDonald’s, checkers, Target, organic market within walking distance. Our Lyft to and from the museums were between $10-$20. The area is very safe. Myself and my kids enjoyed are stay. We will definitely be back the next time we are in the DMV area . I wish they would get a pool that would be perfect. Also they are going green. So you get towels every 2 days. My family uses a different towel everyday.

This hotel is okay but TERRIBLE considering the price. I did over hear another person complaining of roaches. I was fortunate not to deal with that problem. The included breakfast was scant and most of the food (plastic wrapped bagels, instant oatmeal, muffins) was disappointing. If the price was much less this would be fine. But at that price point I did expect better. More annoyingly parking is about $20 a night and there is no street parking nearby and for my last two days there were barely any cars in the lot which just makes the fee feel like a money grab. Front desk staff were kind and helpful.
