The room was compact but very clean and comfortable. I really liked that it is across the street from a metro station. Lack of a complimentary breakfast in the morning was a downer.

Nice, good (well, OK) rates. On checkin I was informed that "this is a micro hotel" which means that the room was tiny. Tiny like no drawers, nowhere to put an open suitcase for unpacking, the micro-desk's chair didn't have room to pull back enough to get into the chair.

Everything about the stay was wonderful , except for the size of the room. It was clearly listed in the details when we made the reservation, however, we overlooked it. It was very small and took a little bit of getting used to, but in the end, everything was fantastic.

We liked the coziness of the room, but later after check in it dawned on us that the room booked was without a refrigerator and pillows were too soft. Location was great. Most importantly EACH staff member was very friendly and personable!!

A modern and youthful place – perfect for a short stay. Spotlessly clean and in an excellent location. I absolutely recommend it. One frustrating thing: I booked via Expedia, but wasn’t allowed to use the food and beverage credit, which felt like throwing that money out the window.

Glad I picked this hotel

We had a good view. Like the area. Walgreens on the corner about 2 buildings down. Hotel and dinner were great. Definitely coming back to stay. About 25 min walk to the national mall. McDonald's taco bell Chick-fil-A on same street. Coffee everywhere. Parking lot is a 1 minute walk around the corner. I think it's called colonial parking fyi. 25$ for 24hrs. It's located in Chinatown. The yard house is also another great restaurant.
