Everything about this hotel was amazing! I brought my daughter to visit Howard University and I wanted her to stay in a cute and colorful hotel; this one was spot on! The front desk agent Lolo was so kind and helpful! We stayed in the double queen room, the beds were so comfy and I loved that they were adjustable. Self check-in was seamless, there was plenty of parking available, and the roof top pool was a vibe. My daughter and I had a great trip overall but this hotel was the icing on the cake!

My expectation was not met. I loved the area the hotel is in very close to everything. We stayed a weekend here and it was impossible to get to where we needed to be because the elevators was always filled with people and the stair didn’t go all the way to the garage. The pool is rented on the weekends after 3pm which is very upsetting knowing that check in is at 3pm😭. The rooms are very clean! Would not stay again.

Although listed online as family friendly, this hotel is anything but that. We traveled with our 10 yr old son and as we walked into the lobby we passed a line of half clothed girls waiting to get into the pool party upstairs. Two heavily intoxicated men were escorted out in front of us. We witnessed several escorts and their clients get into/out of the elevators. We got to our room and found a used bandaid on the floor and music blaring so loud we couldn’t even hear our tv. After 5 minutes in the room, we decided to ask for a refund and check out. They only refunded us for 1 night but charged us for a night. The manager was polite but unaccommodating.

My stay was good up until the point of for my check in they alerted me of the rooftop pool party and made it known I would have access. The day of the party hotel staff lets me know that I’m unable to attend the party or access the pool even though I’m staying in the hotel.

The rooftop pool was amazing! Wonderful place to while away a sunny afternoon with a cocktail. Loved the diversity, friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Room was on the small side, but met my needs. Food was so-so....not horrible, but not great....but was reasonable for DC.
