The hotel staff and property condition was excellent. However, the lack of amenities proved to be so expensive that I doubt I will stay here again. Parking for 2 nights in the recommended lot cost me a ridiculous $81. I could not get in the lot because the police had all the streets blocked off when I arrived. I had to park two blocks away and then go back out and put my car in the lot. Coffee in the morning was $5 a cup in their restaurant, with breakfast being $16 for an omelet. The coffee shop next door opens at 11 am. The hotel does offer free coffee service from 5 - 6:30 AM. (!!) Also, the street is so noisy that the hotel provides ear plugs in the room. I was awoken at 3AM by some screaming group of women out on the street. Cops everywhere both nights, which I suppose is a good thing given the denizens all over the street. A+ to the staff for positive attitude, friendliness, and condition of the place. D for location and amenities.

If you need a place to stay in DC and want to be within good distance of everything, this is the place to stay. Friendly staff, cafe, roof top bar, plus a gym in the basement. Being a mirco hotel doesn't change anything due to the fact you'll most likely be sight seeing anyways. Also there is endless options for amazing food literally on the same block. Walgreens just a few doors down for extra necessities. Just a block away from Capital One Arena for your games or concerts. 10 out of 10 highly recommend, because I'll definitely be staying here again for my next trip to DC

Hotel was terrific, community outside was a significant issue, a crime upon arrival and multiple police necessary events around the corner was a bit disturbing
