It looks old and in disrepair. The security situation was kind of scary as I was in a room that dead-ended at the end of a long corridor. My neighbor (who ended up being a nice man) arrived immediately behind me last night and scared the crap out of me. Similarly a hotel employee knocked on the door late at night asking whether my TV was working. Felt unsafe.

The stay at the ARC Hotel Washington DC was a mixed experience. The room itself was pretty clean, and the staff were very friendly and responsive. Anytime we needed something, they brought it quickly, and maintenance came right away to fix the TV when the sound wasn’t working. However, there were a few issues that made the stay less comfortable. The bathroom smelled like urine for the first two days, which was unpleasant. The bed was also not very comfortable. Another big issue was the temperature in the room. The hotel uses a one-pipe system, so the air conditioning was not available yet for the season and the heat was still on. We were told to open the window, but there was nothing to hold it open, and one of the windows actually popped out of the frame when we tried. Overall, the staff were great and the room was fairly clean, but the comfort issues (especially the temperature and bed) made the stay less enjoyable.

It’s ok. Front desk lady wasn’t too nice and seem annoyed. I think it’s because I checked in during the Super Bowl. The room I was given was right above the front door and it was loud when guest came in and out.

The thermostat was broken, so I had to turn on the heater when it started getting cold and turn it off when it got too hot. The TV also wouldn't turn on. The room looked and felt nice, but they need to do some basic maintenance.

I really liked that hotel was newly renovated and had a nice look and feel. Location is great. A few suggestions: 1) Some staff were super nice and helpful. Others seemed bored and indifferent. 2) The heater in my room was very noisy and the engineer could not fix it. It woke me up at night. 3) The treadmill needs maintenance:-)
