The room and bathroom were very clean. The air conditioning was amazing. The complementary umbrella was SO helpful! The check in process was smooth and we were able to check in early. The area is EXTREMELY walkable. If you rent an electric bike/ scooter, you can ride 18 mins to all the monuments/ museums, which is a cheap alternative to an uber. Overall great experience!

I'm now a loyal customer! In fact, I am planning on returning in several weeks. Hard to beat such a central location with this price point, right in the middle of Georgetown, and walking distance to federal government offices. Not to mention, just a few blocks from a great Thai restaurant (Rimtang), tobacco store, liquor store just around the corner, post office several blocks up the street.
Next to the canal path.

If location is your #1 priority and you’re only staying for 1-2 nights, you can’t beat this place. It is bear-bones, though, tons of stairs (bathroom trip at night meant going down a lengthy staircase), no frig in the room and no info that there is a kitchen in the basement, and the check-in process (when using Hotels.com for getting a reservation) is awful, and the manager was shockingly rude. Loved the location. Not a lot else.

The canal had no water and we were disappointed because this was the reason we booked the hotel. It wasn’t what we expected but we ended up enjoying ourselves with the hotel being right in the midst of Georgetown. It was clean and tidy and very historic. The bed was comfortable. The room was kinda slanted due to its age but we got used to it!

I am shocked how affordable this was as it's in the best part of Georgetown. The housekeeping staff are so sweet, the rooms were clean, and the kitchen was an amazing touch. Even though the canal was not filled during our stay, it was a so nice to look out on the trail and canal. My one critique is if you need to drop off your luggage, the lockers currently don't have keys to lock them.

This small historic hotel sits at the absolute best location of Georgetown. I loved that there were some historic details still there. My room (number 2) was small but worked great. The lady running the hotel was incredibly helpful. Free coffee in the kitchen area. Looked there was storage lockers for your luggage if needed. You need to walk stairs so not suitable for a person in a wheelchair. I am very happy with my stay.
