Very Disappointing Stay at Hotel Nell – Washington, DC I recently stayed at Hotel Nell and unfortunately my experience was far below expectations. Cleanliness was a major issue. The room did not feel properly cleaned upon arrival, and the overall condition of the property appeared worn and poorly maintained. Several areas showed visible signs of deterioration, which made the stay uncomfortable from the start. The room itself was extremely small — much tighter than expected — leaving barely enough space to move around comfortably with luggage. On top of that, the beds and pillows were very uncomfortable, making it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. Noise was another significant problem. Whether from the hallway, neighboring rooms, or outside, there was very little sound insulation. Rest and relaxation were nearly impossible. For the price paid and the expectations of staying in Washington, DC, this property did not deliver in terms of comfort, cleanliness, or overall quality. I would not choose to stay here again unless major improvements are made.

The first night of our stay an unknown person tried to access our room - twice - while we were sleeping. waking us up. When I alerted the front desk attendant, she told me management reviewed security footage and filed a report based on what they saw (they believed it was another guest who was drunk) but we were not provided additional information, offered a different room, or any form of discount for the situation. We were only booked for two nights so we stayed, but it was a very uncomfortable second night.

Check in was a bit awkward. There is no loading zone, and very limited parking, so I had to go across the alley and park. I would’ve loved to have been able to drop my luggage off first. The door to the lobby is right off the “parking lot” (5 spaces) and is an active drive through so you couldn’t leave your car to quickly check in and drop bags. My room was facing the street and it was very loud from the noise outside. I was on the 4th floor and was disturbed throughout the night. Rooms and common spaces were cute. Nicely decorated and spacious. Location was good as well.

The room is clean and the bed comfortable. This is the second time we've stayed here, and we'll probably stay again. This time we were placed in a smaller space that overlooks the highway. It is VERY noisy and drafty through the windows. You'll hear police, firetrucks, honking, loud music, loud exhausts, horns honking, trains blowing horns, even the occasional pedestrian conversation. Try to get a room in the back of the hotel. Also a couple amenities could make life easier here: a surface in the bathroom to put a hairdryer on (instead of putting it in the wet bowl of the sink), a half in the shower, better water pressure (1.5 gallon per minute?). More parking options and explanations. More towels. everyone is so nice though, and the price is reasonable for the neighborhood. See you next year probably!

Second time staying at Hotel Nell and definitely not the last. Great little boutique hotel with the best staff. Easy parking right in front of hotel if available. If not, parking directly behind the hotel not even 50 yards. Due to its smaller size it is so easy to get an elevator, and to your room. The breakfast in the lobby (not complimentary) was absolutely delicious and worth every penny. Super easy to catch an uber or Lyft. Close to restaurants. My go to for DC stays.
