Great hotel, stayed with 1 adult and 1 child. Room is teeny-tiny (width of king-size bed), but very clean and efficient. Got the job done for a weekend trip to DC to visit museums! Bed was very comfy. Water pressure in shower was quite low, as others have mentioned. Was worried about the small “cooling drawer” (fridge) I’d read about in other reviews, but ours was nice and cold, and worked well for a half-gallon of milk (on its side), a few yogurts, soda cans, and a couple other small containers. Check-in and check-out is done at a self-serve kiosk in the lobby, with an attendant at the desk. No coffee/tea in room, but there was hot water available in the bar/restaurant any time. Would definitely stay again!

Crazy small room. Everything is controlled by iPad. Daughter got bit by bugs while sleeping. Left a jacket and took 4 days to get a response. First it was found then they said it was not. Management took my number and never called. One step up from a hostel.

It is a new, modern, and clean hotel a few minutes of walk from Air and Space museum. However, our room was very small and less functional than a regular cruise ship cabin. The king bed was from one wall to another. There was no space to park and unload luggage from the car in front of the hotel and check in. The whole hotel AC/heat system was set for cooling only and it was impossible to make the room warmer. The hotel staff was mostly helpful.

Never, ever charge $300/night and then expect people to check in themselves and also pay for breakfast. Also, at these prices, a room should be larger than a walk-in closet.

Poor food choices. One restaurant with limited menu on ground floor. Rooftop Sushi restaurant had only a prix fixed sushi menu. What a waste. Nothing else in walking distance to hotel except a Blimpee across the street.

A great choice for solo travelers. Rooms are clean, comfortable, and quiet, but small. Okay for short stays for couples if they pack light. Staff is friendly and helpful. Very good breakfast, served fresh and hot.
