Excellent for a night away.

For a one night stay when you have plans. This hotel is a budget friendly option. If you just need a place to lay your head, I would recommend for a day trip but not for a week unless you’re really on a budget or traveling alone. The location is excellent. There’s ample on street parking surrounding the in on the weekends. It’s a good 30 minute walk to Dupont Circle or the Lincoln theater.

The Windsor Inn was a throwback to an earlier age with great working AC, and though the room was small, it did provide everything I needed for one person on a business trip. It was not fancy but very serviceable and very right on the price for DC.

Motel experience

I was not going to complain but since you asked: Shower did not have hot water, the sink was clogged, door window was not private, hallway light shinned into room, smoke detector was directly above bed with green light shining down. Bedside had no lamp, I plugged in phone will main room light was on, went to sleep phone was not charged due to outlet being connected to switch, bed had no comforter it was just sheets, remotes were sticky. Toilet paper was very cheap and ripped easily. No mini fridge in room, i had to put my food in a public area fridge that was not even cold, there was no water I had to leave to buy water. Overall not worth $125. Location was good and the staff was very nice, he makes coffee in the morning.

Great spot, safe and walkable, lots of dining options, YMCA close by. A very clean bedroom and bathroom. Sparkling white sheets and towels. Coffee and tea in the lobby complimentary 24/7. Staff is excellent. An old building which could use a lot of TLC but everything works great. Just for spending a night or a few while enjoying the city, a very affordable option. Thank you for your hospitality.

I will not be returning to this hotel/inn. I felt like an inconvenience to them for asking questions about my stay. They did not ask me anything about my stay or needing anything. The hotel cleaning staff rummaged through my personal belongings. Overall, a poor experience that I could have spent the $$ on somewhere else. You all are in the hotel industry...act like it.
