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.

Modern, very clean, very small room, nice staff.

The hotel staff who checked me in were terrific -- efficient and very friendly. They did note the size of the room -- 150 sq ft, and they weren't kidding. But with the large bed, it didn't leave much room for anything else. A tiny (TINY) desk and a chair so I could put up a laptop. Bathroom had all the necessities, but the shower stall (no tub, but I don't need a tub) was also quite modestly sized. The "closet" had no door, just a bar to hang pants & shirts. Long items, like coats, had to go on the 3 hooks by the door. Glad I was here by myself on business. as two people in this room would have been really cramped. I was there only overnight, so not a huge issue, but for longer stays, get a larger room. Price was good for DC -- about $220 for the night. And the location was only about 2 blocks from Union Station. View? A wall. Didn't matter for me, but something to note for others.
